I hope if a major sponsor returns, it's 3 4 letter words.....

John Force needs a sponsor, claims they climbed a heck of a mountain. John Force blurts out "Mountain Dew" at Bristol. Mountain Dew has sponsored JFR (et al) in the past. If I were to make a SWAG with the information I have, I might be inclined to say "Mountain Dew".

Mountain Dew Car Wins The Mello Yellow FC Championship... That would go over like a Lead Balloon... Or is Coke leaving next year?

Mountain Dew can't sponsor, Coke has the exclusivity to their product in the title sponsorship.

Winston?! I miss those days of the sport.

 

[none]

Hope Rob is right, that might bring back other beer companies. Winston would be good too.

Torco....

Del Worsham had a Mountain Dew sponsored Funny Car in the Powerade era ... And promptly launched the body about 200ft in the air at Joliet I believe.

Really ... That has already been that long ago?!? Sheesh ... You guys are getting old and dragging me down with you LOL.

Hypothetical beer company sponsor + JF "climb a mountain" comment = Coors?

Although I didn't like the first Mountain Dew I tasted and haven't tried another since, I think it'd be great if Coke would open it up and allow Mountain Dew sponsorship on cars. Seems as though it would play to the young-ish demographic that many believe is vital to the future of NHRA.

Cancer Centers of America for all those that were hooked by the winston hype

Jeff.... Dew and Yellow are "the same-same" like coke and pepsi... mixers

 

[mick]

interstate batteries or coors light

 

[stitcherbob]

c'mon....think!
The Forces would best represent tooth whiteners/toothpaste companies!

 

[Nunz]

McDonald's? Or isn't it time for a Hot Wheels car?

 

[my friends call me Zappy]

Speaking of sponsors, I was wondering watching the Q show Sat evening. With Ford dropping Force next year, are we also losing them as
title sponsor of "FORD THUNDER VALLEY NATIONALS".??? Or are they (Ford) just dropping the cars, and keeping the race??

 

[SundayNiagara]

Ford is no longer the title sponsor.
