Georgia Peanut Commission returns to sponsor Anthony Alfredo at Talladega

Anthony Alfredo is looking for his best finish of the season and his first NASCAR Cup Series career top-10 finish this Sunday at the Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway.

He has high hopes and the support from the Georgia Peanut Commission and their familiar branding, Georgia Peanuts. It will be the third time this season that the Georgia Peanuts Ford Mustang will hit the track with Alfredo.

Georgia Peanuts conducts programs in the areas of promotion, research and education. Funding is derived from a $2 per ton assessment on all producers. Peanuts are a $2.2 billion industry in Georgia and a vital part of the economy.

“It’s great to have Georgia Peanuts return this weekend,” said Alfredo. “I feel really good that we can go and have a great race and get a top-10. We were so close in the spring when we finished 12th. I’m ready to go back and get Georgia Peanuts a top-10 to thank them for all their support this season.”

Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race begins at 2:00 p.m. ET on NBC.
