Earnhardt Jr. and JRM partners with Clean Coal Campaign: Dale Earnhardt Jr. has signed an agreement to represent and drive awareness to the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE) as part of its nationwide campaign to promote the importance of clean coal technology. The agreement is part of a larger sponsorship between ACCCE and JR Motorsports that includes primary branding on JRM cars for four events in 2012 and associate branding for the duration of the Nationwide Series season. This is the first-ever sponsorship of a NASCAR team for ACCCE, which supports energy policies that balance coal’s role in supplying the United States with affordable and reliable electricity. The ACCCE will receive primary logo placement and branding on Cole Whitt’s #88 Chevy in Nationwide Series races at Dover International Speedway (June 2), Michigan International Speedway (May 16), Iowa Speedway (Aug. 4) and Kentucky Speedway (Sept. 22). ACCCE will have associate sponsorship placement on Whitt’s car starting this week at Richmond International Raceway and continuing through the remainder of the season. ACCCE will be an associate sponsor on Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s #5 Chevy in the Nationwide Series race at Talladega Superspeedway on May 5.(JR Motorsports)(4-26-2012)
