DAYTONA BEACH, Florida (February 18, 2015) - - Days before the green flag of the NASCAR season, Rick Ware Racing (RWR) is proud to announce that Lilly Trucking will return as a major sponsor for the 2015 NASCAR XFINITY Series (NXS) season.

Lilly Trucking specializes in reliable transportation of fine machinery and machinery parts for the paper industry. Lilly Trucking is dedicated to satisfying the needs of their customers. For more than 42 years, Lilly Trucking has been able to provide quality services, accurately performed in an efficient and timely manner.

Their fleet is equipped with GPS navigation, communications and dispatch capabilities to provide their customers with the most accurate delivery information and location services possible. They are proud of their reputation for quality and integrity.

As part of their relationship with Rick Ware Racing, Lilly Trucking will be associate sponsors in two NXS entries for Saturday’s Alert Today Florida 300. In addition to hoisting its signage with the No. 15 of Carlos Contreras, Lilly Trucking will also carry associate placement on the No. 13 driven by Georgia native Chris Cockrum.

In addition to associate sponsorship roles this season, Lilly Trucking will carry title sponsorship rights in select NASCAR XFINITY Series races this season.

A fixture in the Rick Ware Racing family, Lilly Trucking will expand its role in the organization by being a co-sponsor on the No. 50 Burnie Grill / BUBBA burger® Chevrolet Silverado driven by Cody Ware in the 2015 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) season opener from Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway on February 20.

Furthermore, the company will also back Ware’s teammate Donnie Neuenberger in the No. 1 Chevrolet Silverado in a joint effort with MAKE Motorsports.

“Lisa (Ware) and I are so thankful to have such a great and loyal sponsor as Lilly Trucking,” said team principal Rick Ware. “Dennis and Sharon are wonderful people and are huge NASCAR fans. They do so much for Rick Ware Racing and our team and we look forward to having a successful season with them aboard.”

Cody Ware, the son of Lisa and Rick Ware is also equally excited to represent a company that has been instrumental in the success of his family’s race team.

“I’m ecstatic to have Lilly Trucking on board in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series,” said Ware. “To have their continued support on a much larger scale is greatly appreciated.

“Sponsorship is scarce and far apart these days and to have someone like loyal like Lilly Trucking is wonderful. I can’t say enough about how much it to me to have them apart of my career.”
