It will also sponsor the pre-race show entitlement of Koolerz 300, a Busch Series race airing February 15.
"In the first half of the NASCAR season on FOX we will successfully use our televised NASCAR sponsorship as a highly targeted way to reach an important demographic segment," said Clark Wood, vice president of marketing, AutoTrader.com. "As the only automotive dot-com with a major national network television advertising campaign this year, we continue to reach our target demographic through a variety of ongoing sports sponsorships, building nationwide awareness and keeping AutoTrader.com top of mind."
