(MOORESVILLE, NC) January 14, 2010 – Spurred on by the success of their 2009 product launch and successful NASCAR debut late last year, Wave Energy Drink has recently added a key staffer to help take the beverage company to the next level in motorsports.

Taking over the role of Motorsports Director is Cody Sommer, who joins Wave Energy Drink via a four-year team-based stint in NASCAR, most recently at Earnhardt-Ganassi Racing (EGR), where he served as a Technical Specialist for their Research & Development Department.  While at EGR, Sommer filled many roles in both spectrums, serving as a dual-use employee in both technical and mechanical capacities.  Sommer also has previous experience in both the NASCAR Camping World Truck and ARCA Series.  He is now ready to transition into a newer role at Wave Energy Drink.  Sommer will coordinate all sponsor-based activities with NASCAR Sprint Cup race team partner, Tommy Baldwin Racing and driver, Mike Bliss.

Hailing from Joliet, Illinois, Sommer previously served as the Promotions Director of LaSalle (IL) Speedway.  While there, Sommer was responsible for creating several new racing series and integrating them with mutually-beneficial sponsorship opportunities.  The Illinois Valley Cellular (IVC) Series went on to become one of the most successful series at the race track.  Sommer also oversaw regional touring events under the banners of such sponsorship as Lucas Oil and the World of Outlaws (WoO) Series.

Wave Energy Drink continues to brand itself into further national market prominence through inside sales, franchising and new distribution networks.
