Cheez-It Renews Sponsorship With Buckshot Racing

Atlanta, GA - Cheez-ItŪ Snack Crackers, a product of Keebler Company, announces renewed sponsorship of the No.00 Pontiac Grand Prix driven by Buckshot Jones in the NASCAR Busch Series, Grand National Division. The 2000 season marks the fourth consecutive year of Keebler's sponsorship of the Buckshot Racing team. Keebler increased its involvement from associate sponsorship status in 1997 and 1998 to primary sponsorship with their Cheez-ItŪ brand in 1999 and again in 2000. Cheez-ItŪ was also an associate sponsor on Buckshot Racing's Winston Cup car in 1999.

"Being able to renew the sponsorship means more than just having someone to give financial assistance," said Billy Jones, owner of the No.00 team. "We are fortunate to have a sponsor such as Cheez-ItŪ, who really supports our race program. Each week at the different tracks, the turnout from the Cheez-ItŪ Racing family seems to grow larger and larger. We cannot thank them enough for their teamwork and support."
