Ron Fellows Drives Go Daddy to Victory Lane
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(Business Wire)--
Watch out! GoDaddy.com now has a NASCAR victory to go with its
IndyCar victory already this season. Ron Fellows drove the No. 5
GoDaddy.com Chevrolet to Victory Lane after winning today's NASCAR
Nationwide Series race at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal,
Canada.
This was Fellows' first time behind the wheel of the GoDaddy.com
sponsored race car and the first NASCAR win for Go Daddy. Go Daddy
Girl Danica Patrick made history this year being the first woman to
win an IndyCar Series race by winning the Japan 300.
"First - I want to thank Dale Earnhardt Jr. and GoDaddy.com," said
an emotional and elated Ron Fellows after winning the rain-shortened
race. "This was good fun. Now I need to beg Dale Jr. to let me run
next week."
Fellows took over the lead thanks to some strategic pit stop
planning. He then led the historic race, this is the first time
Nationwide Series has run rain tires, by more than 45 seconds when it
was called due to extremely low visibility.
"It's exhilarating Ron Fellows brought the No. 5 GoDaddy.com
Chevrolet to Victory Lane," said GoDaddy.com CEO and Founder Bob
Parsons. "All the pieces just came together...the race was in Canada,
Ron is a Canadian fan favorite and he's a road course expert."
GoDaddy.com is the sponsor of the No. 5 GoDaddy.com Chevrolets in
six of this season's Nationwide Series races. Earnhardt, a GoDaddy.com
spokesman and NASCAR's most popular driver, designed the No. 5
GoDaddy.com Chevrolets along with racing the car April 5 in Texas.
Earnhardt will take the wheel again at the Watkins Glen next Sunday,
Aug. 9. Mark Martin then pilots in Michigan Aug. 16 and in Kansas
Sept. 27.
