This study delves into Americas fastest growing sport, NASCAR and looks beyond the entity itself to one of its most illustrious facilities, Texas Motor Speedway. The speedway relies heavily on its sponsorships to help subsidize the cost of hosting a NASCAR race weekend which is considered to be the equivalent of hosting a NFL Super Bowl.
In order to attract the thousands of ticket buyers to each event, Texas Motor Speedway relies on advertising to promote the events and its sponsors. Each event reflects the exclusive sponsor of the NASCAR event and thus is utilized in print advertising.
This research explores the ramifications of incorporating multiple sponsors into one print advertisement and evaluates the impact on recall and recognition of the ads message, congruence/incongruence of the sponsors and Texas Motor Speedway as well as whether this leads to a behavioral intent to purchase tickets.
