Speed Stick® and NASCAR Driver Cole Whitt Engage Fans at Kentucky Motor Speedway on 7/7 – 7/9

Speed Stick® and  NASCAR driver Cole Whitt continue to celebrate year three of their partnership during the 2016 racing season.

This week Speed Stick® will be hosting Fan Events at Kentucky Motor Speedway aimed at celebrating those who echo the driver’s courage to step up and crush self-doubt in high pressure situations, with a chance to meet Cole Whitt and win great prizes.

“When I climb behind the wheel, I know that I’m about to enter a race against the best drivers in the country.  That thought can be nerve-wracking,” said Whitt, driver of the number 98 Speed Stick® stock car.  “It’s important to stay focused and embrace the high-pressure moments head on; Speed Stick® is present in those moments to remind me that I got what it takes.  It keeps me cool during the pressure moments of any race, which allows me to stay focused on the finish line.”
