Alongside the PSA and two Truck Series events, Harvick will become the Champion spokesperson for Federal-Mogul and the Champion brand as part of the multi-year agreement.

“I am really proud to partner with Champion and to serve as their spokesperson,” said Harvick. “Not only have they been in NASCAR for such a long time, but I’ve always trusted and used their products.”

Federal-Mogul employs over 45,000 people in 34 countries with 107 manufacturing locations, 25 distribution centers and 16 technical centers.

“We are really excited to have Champion as primary sponsor on board this No. 33 Chevrolet,” said Hornaday. “Champion makes excellent, trustworthy products and we are thrilled to have them as part of the KHI family.”

“Champion is really looking forward to this exciting opportunity with Kevin Harvick, Ron Hornaday and KHI,” said Michael Proud, Director of Marketing, North America, Federal-Mogul. “Having our brand associated with the caliber of drivers like Harvick and Hornaday and to partner with a team as competitive as KHI, we couldn’t be happier. We have been involved in the sport for many years but to be a part of a team with such talent in the industry is really exciting for everyone at Federal-Mogul. A big thank you to Kevin and DeLana [Harvick] and everyone at KHI who has helped put this program together.”
