“The association between Mountain Dew and Evernham Motorsports is such a big part of our race team and I’ve enjoyed working with them,” said Mayfield who is in his third season as a driver for Evernham Motorsports. “Everything they do is so much fun to be a part of. I’m excited about the Dew paint scheme I’ll be running at Darlington and look forward to making the other drivers green with envy.”
“This is my first year being associated with Mountain Dew, it’s been fun so far,” said rookie driver Kasey Kahne. “Everyone on the team has been great to work with and each week I meet new people who are part of the Mountain Dew team. I love Mountain Dew, so working with them comes naturally. Running the Dew car at Michigan this weekend is something I’m looking forward to. It’s always fun to drive a car with different paint on it. It gets the fans’ attention and if you do well it helps the sponsors.” This marks the fourth year that Mountain Dew has sponsored Evernham Motorsports. Pepsi-Cola North America, the makers of Mountain Dew, has been involved with NASCAR since the sport was introduced in 1948. Today, Pepsi serves its products at 16 of the 23 Nextel Cup Series tracks and is the title sponsor of NASCAR Nextel Cup races in Daytona, Fla. (Pepsi 400), and Darlington, S.C.
