COLLEGE STATION, Texas - (Business Wire) FanCar, a company designed to put the power of sponsorship in the hands of race fans, announced today that it will sponsor two-time NASCAR Sprint Cup champion Terry Labonte and Carter/Simo Racing at the Ford 400 on Nov. 22 in Miami. Fans are now invited to visit www.fancar.com and invest $20 to be a sponsor of Terry Labonte’s #08 Toyota Camry at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

“We started FanCar to support drivers like Terry Labonte, a former Cup champion and an old-school, no-nonsense competitor,” said Matt Ferguson, founder of FanCar.

“Now it’s up to the fans to get behind Terry and Carter/Simo Racing at Miami and join the FanCar team.”

After becoming a sponsor, fans will be able to vote on the paint scheme as well as the overall message that Labonte’s #08 Camry will carry during the Miami race. Participating fans will receive a certificate of sponsorship as well as a digital photo of the car. If the sponsorship is chosen as a gift, FanCar will send along an electronic gift card to the person selected. All funds raised by FanCar will go directly to the funding of the #08 Camry driven by Terry Labonte in Miami—no development costs or transaction fees subtracted.

“It’s a great honor and a privilege to be the first driver of the FanCar,” said Terry Labonte, driver of the #08 Carter/Simo Toyota Camry. “NASCAR fans have given me so much in my career, but FanCar takes that fan support to a whole new level.”

Terry Labonte, from Corpus Christi, Texas, has won 22 races in his NASCAR Sprint Cup career and was the Cup series champion in 1984, driving for Hagan Racing, and again in 1996, giving Hendrick Motorsports its first ever championship. In 1998, Labonte was named as one of NASCAR’s 50 Greatest Drivers and was elected to the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in 2002.
