TRG Motorsports is looking to promote the positive difference for the future of education through School Media while also improving upon our spring effort at Phoenix through exposure on the No. 71. Our major message this weekend is to utilize educational and nutritional campaigns that will empower both teachers and students by providing those tools necessary for a successful and enriching life.
“We were doing well in the spring race when the wreck happened. It was frustrating, because I really like the track. It suits me because it isn’t your typical oval. I can’t wait to go back this weekend. In addition to trying my best on getting the team back in the top-35, our sponsor School Media is very important to my personal message of healthy living through my vegan lifestyle. I’m looking forward to promoting the message of positive difference for the future of education,” says Lally.
Greg Meyer, School Media representative commented:
“We are thrilled to team with TRG Motorsports and to be part of the NASCAR Sprint Cup series action at Phoenix International Raceway this Sunday. Andy is the perfect spokesperson for School Media with his dedication to a vegan based lifestyle, it really promotes and strengthens the positive difference for the future of education. This partnership will allow us to reach NASCAR’s national audience and spread our healthy, educational and nutritional messages to students, administrators and communities across the country. This is a great marketing platform to introduce our business to NASCAR fans nationally and compete at the sport’s highest level. We look forward to Andy bringing School Media to the checkered flag Sunday.”
Team owner Kevin Buckler hopes for the best for his No. 71 team, currently only eleven points out of NASCAR’s top-35.
“We are really excited to welcome our new partner, School Media, to our team. We are miles ahead of where we were in the spring and I’m looking forward to seeing what Andy and the team can do this weekend. This will also be a great opportunity for our new sponsor School Media to not only have access to national on-track exposure for a great cause, but to spend some time getting to know NASCAR and what the most powerful marketing program on the planet, can do for their company.”
Coverage of the race will begin Sunday at 3:00 p.m. ET on ESPN.
