Guess I am just wondering what it takes to keep these companies in the game. Maybe if we as fans would mention that we saw the name on the race car when doing business with a sponsor it would help.
That and always try to do business with companies that back a race car when there is a choice.
Crume Evans has been around quite awhile. They also used to sponsor Gary Fisher in the #79 sprint that Kent Evans was an owner on before he bought the Kokomo Speedway. Bud's Auto Sales has been sponsoring various cars around this area for alot of years. On the Outlaw circuit Casey's General Stores has been a long time sponsor on a couple different cars.
