General Formulations will expand its NASCAR footprint in 2021 while also incorporating industry partnerships with Mutoh America and Royal Sovereign to provide Spire Motorsports with a comprehensive suite of resources to wrap the team’s Nos. 7 and 77 Chevrolet Camaros, transporters and pit equipment.

“General Formulations is extremely excited to expand our NASCAR footprint as a NASCAR Cup Series team sponsor with Spire Motorsports for the 2021 season,” said Matt Edwards, Product Manager, General Formulations. “Our AutoMarkTM high-quality vinyl wrap films will be used to wrap all Spire Motorsports cars and race transporters. We’re looking forward to our new partnership and seeing the General Formulations logo displayed on the team’s cars. We wish the entire team the best of luck in 2021.”

The trio of entities will be featured as co-primary sponsors aboard Spire’s No. 77 Chevrolet with Justin Haley at the controls in March at Phoenix Raceway and later in the year at Michigan International Speedway. All three organizations will also maintain an associate sponsorship presence throughout the season.
