SunTrust Bank Joins U.S. Army Racing Again at Richmond:

SunTrust Bank, Mid-Atlantic has partnered once again with the MB2 Motorsports NASCAR Winston Cup team for the September 6 Chevy Rock & Roll 400 at Richmond International Raceway. SunTrust will be featured as an associate sponsor on the #01 U.S. Army Pontiac driven by Mike Skinner, who is substituting for the injured Jerry Nadeau. “This is another great opportunity for SunTrust to work with a top-notch group,” said Michael Newbrand, Senior Vice President and SunTrust, Mid-Atlantic’s Marketing Director. œWe are glad to hear that Jerry Nadeau is doing well and are pleased that he will visit the SunTrust client hospitality suite as our guest.” Nadeau was scheduled to meet SunTrust’s officials and guests before their inaugural race together May 3 at Richmond, but a practice accident the day before the event sidelined Nadeau. He continues to recover from those injuries, but is looking forward to visiting both his team and SunTrust representatives this weekend. SunTrust will also offer fans the opportunity to enter a “Racing With The Works,” drawing to be selected as an honorary #01 U.S. Army pit crew member. Anyone over the age of 18 can complete an entry form at the SunTrust booth located on the track midway on Friday, Sept. 5 and Saturday, Sept. 6.. This drawing coincides with SunTrust’s “Banking With The Works” promotion which features the Bank’s new line-up of checking account products and low rate equity line products. in addition to these activities at Richmond International Raceway, the #01 U.S. Army show car was displayed at SunTrust’s Fort Lee branch in Fort Lee on Wednesday for military members and their families.
