Richard Petty Motorsports announced that SONIC Drive-In will be the primary sponsor for Sam Hornish Jr. and the #9 Ford team for the upcoming NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races at Kansas Speedway and Texas Motor Speedway. More than 50 years ago, SONIC and its unique menu was built on the popular drive-in model: made-to-order American classics, signature menu items and speedy service from friendly skating Carhops. Today, SONIC is the largest chain of drive-in restaurants in America with more than 3,500 drive-in locations in 44 states across the country. This isn’t the first time SONIC has been involved in NASCAR. In addition to its previous on-track presence, fans may have seen the drive-in restaurant’s latest commercial starring NBC Sports’ Rutledge Wood and Kyle Petty. Now, SONIC will be teaming up with NASCAR Hall of Famer, Richard Petty and Richard Petty Motorsports.(Richard Pettty Motorsports), see images of the car on the #9 team paint schemes page.(10-14-2015)
