Sponsor back for Lepage at Talladega AND/IMAGES:

This weekend Kevin Lepage and the #37 R&J Racing Team will be sporting a new look as Patrón Tequila comes on board the #37 R&J Racing Dodge Charger for the Aaron’s 499 at Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, AL. The team will not only be taking their sponsor from Daytona to Talladega, but also the car that earned them a 9th place finish. Lepage and the entire crew are looking to have a strong run this weekend.(R&J Racing/Integrated Marketing Solutions PR)(4-26-2005)
AND On Wednesday, Kevin Lepage unveiled a new paint scheme for this weekend’s Aaron’s 499 NASCAR Nextel Cup event at Talladega Superspeedway and it’s sure to be a hit with the boss – “the good boss”. The bright, lime green Dodge Charger is the same car that Lepage race to a 9th place finish in the Daytona 500 earlier this year and it is again sponsored by Patrón Tequila (in Spanish, the word *patrón *means “the good boss”). “We are very happy to announce that Patrón is with us for 5 more races this year and the new paint scheme is going to look great on the track,” said Lepage. “Patrón came on board in Daytona and we had a top ten there and we plan to race the same way in Talladega. The car drafts well in traffic and that’s critical, but equally as important, we want to stay out of trouble and avoid any big mishaps.”
After Talladega, the R&J Racing #37 Patrón Tequila Dodge Charger driven by Kevin Lepage will be racing in Michigan on June 19, Chicago on July 10, Watkins Glen on August 14 and in Fontana, Ca. on September 4.(R&J Racing/Integrated Marketing Solutions PR)(4-28-2005)
