FORD EXTENDS TASCA CONTRACT
Motorcraft and Ford’s growing national network of Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers announced Saturday they have extended their sponsorship of Bob Tasca III and Tasca Racing’s Shelby Mustang Nitro Funny Car.

Tasca’s Shelby Mustang in the NHRA Full Throttle Racing Series. This
multi-year extension ensures the two primary brands will remain on the
car for years to come.
“We are proud to extend our relationship with Bob Tasca and everyone at
Tasca Racing,” said Ken Czubay, Vice President, Ford U.S. Marketing,
Sales and Service. “Our sponsorship with the Motorcraft and Quick Lane
Shelby Mustang fits with our business plan and performance of solid
products and results.

“From a start-up operation just over a year ago, to winning races and
being in position to contend for the NHRA Funny Car title is a credit
to the hard work this team has put in.”
Tasca begins the 2009 Countdown to 1 “playoffs” with two wins, and in fourth place in the Funny Car standings.
“I’ve always said the best gift someone can give another is to believe
in them,” said Bob Tasca III. “Racing the Motorcraft/Quick Lane Shelby
Mustang has been amazing and to have Ford Customer Service Division
invest in us is an honor because they believed in me. I’m an all Ford
kid driving and I’m very excited to be racing that all Ford hot rod for
years to come.”
