TO PRESENT COMMEMORATIVE WATCHES IN 2009
Series And Race Winners To Receive Tissot
Watches |
To commemorate the Silver Anniversary season of the NASCAR Whelen Modified
Tour, NASCAR and sponsor Whelen Engineering will present a commemorative
Tissot wrist watch to each of the 14 race winners and the season champion in
2009.
Unveiled during the drivers meeting prior to Sunday’s
season-opening event at Thompson (Conn.) International Speedway, the silver
watches feature the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour 25th anniversary logo etched
into the back – along with the race date – to commemorate the tour’s Silver
Anniversary season.
“The 25th anniversary is a very special season, and to make it even
more special for the winner in each of the 14 events, they will be receiving
a Tissot watch, which will be a lasting memory of the victory in this very
special year,” said Phil Kurze, Whelen Vice President for Motorsports.
The 2009 NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour schedule began Sunday
afternoon with the Thompson Icebreaker.
