The single-event sponsorship has all parties excited, including APR’ honorary crew chief, pitch man Carrot Top. I’ve tried imagining the excitement of the moment of seeing my face on the 1 800 CALLATT car, cruising around the track in Daytona in front of the best fans in the world. I’m definitely psyched to be in on the action, Carrot Top said. As a huge NASCAR fan, all I can say is that it’s going to be so cool – and my face is more attractive at 200 mph anyway! For team owner Andy Petree, the highly-visible partnership is an opportunity for a team under his guidance to excel on a superspeedway, something APR teams have done consistently over the past few seasons.(ThatsRacin.com), see images of the car on my Paint Scheme Gallery.(6-27-2002)
