DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. Aero Exhaust, a leading manufacturer of performance exhaust technology, is stepping up its commitment to NASCAR racing in 2007.


As part of a multi-year commitment, Aero, based in South Jordan, Utah, will sponsor a special award in the NASCAR Grand National Division which includes the Busch East Series and the West Series. The Aero Exhaust “Most Laps Led” Award will be presented to the eligible driver who leads the most laps in each race. It includes a $500 award per race. In addition, the driver from each series who collects the most number of Aero Exhaust “Most Laps Led” awards during the season will receive a year-end bonus.


In addition to the $500 Aero Exhaust “Most Laps Led” Award, NASCAR Grand National Division drivers will continue to compete for the Bud Pole Award, Featherlite Most Improved Driver Award, POWERade Power Move of the Race Award and the Sunoco Rookie of the Year Award. Sunoco, the official fuel of NASCAR, has also added a Rookie of the Race Award, to be presented after each event, to its offerings.


Aero Exhaust is the world leader in performance exhaust airflow technology, manufacturing and distributing the most technologically advanced muffler on the market. Its stainless steel products are also used exclusively by many of the Rolex Series Grand Am Daytona Prototype teams. These team relationships have yielded several victories to include the SunTrust / Riley 2005 Rolex Series Team and Driver Championship and more recently, the CompUSA Chip Ganassi with Felix Sabates / Lexus Riley 2006 Rolex 24 Champions at Daytona.


The NASCAR Grand National Division, which uses cars similar to those used on the NASCAR Busch Series, is a feeder division for NASCAR’s three national series. Two-time NASCAR Busch Series champions Martin Truex Jr. and Kevin Harvick, along other notable drivers such as Brendan Gaughan and David Gilliland, began their careers in the Grand National Division. Two-time NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series champion crew chief Greg Zipadelli also began his career in the Grand National Division
