| Sponsorship set for #5 and #88 for JR Motorsports Paraphrased from NASCAR.com article: MOORESVILLE & CONCORD, N.C. -- GoDaddy.com extended its partnerships with JR Motorsports and Hendrick Motorsports. This season, GoDaddy.com will be the primary sponsor for 20 Nationwide Series events with JR Motorsports and seven Cup Series races with Hendrick Motorsports. The deal includes two Nationwide races with Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the No. 5 JR Motorsports Chevrolet. Earnhardt is a GoDaddy.com spokesperson, a two-time Nationwide Series champion (1998 and 1999) and NASCAR's most popular driver. In addition, GoDaddy.com will back the No. 88 JR Motorsports Chevrolet and Brad Keselowski in 18 Nationwide races. Keselowski, 24, also will attempt a seven-event Cup schedule in Hendrick Motorsports' No. 25 Chevrolet. The Cup effort will be led by veteran crew chief Lance McGrew. Keselowski recently completed his first full Nationwide season, finishing third in championship points. Fans voted him the series' most popular driver after posting two wins, 11 top-five finishes and 20 top-10s in 2008. In November, he made his first two Cup starts, recording solid top-25 efforts for Hendrick Motorsports and GoDaddy.com at Texas and Homestead. GoDaddy.com's first foray into auto racing came in December 2006 with the Indy Racing League's Danica Patrick. The company moved into NASCAR last season as a primary sponsor in the Cup Series (two events), Nationwide Series (six events) and Truck Series (five events). The extension and expansion of the GoDaddy.com relationship completes the 2009 sponsorship picture for the No. 88 JR Motorsports Chevrolet. The company joins Unilever (11 races) and Delphi Corp. (six races) as primary sponsors of championship contender Keselowski in the Nationwide Series.
