  • NASCAR Sponsorship: Who Is the Real Winner? an Event Study Proposal
    NASCAR Sponsorship: Who is the Real Winner? An event study proposal A thesis submitted to the Miami University Honors Program in partial fulfillment of the requirements for University Honors with Distinction by Meredith Seurkamp May 2006 Oxford, Ohio ii ABSTRACT NASCAR Sponsorship: Who is the Real Winner? An event study proposal by Meredith Seurkamp This paper investigates the costs and benefits of NASCAR sponsorship. Sports sponsorship is increasing in popularity as marketers attempt to build more personal relationships with their consumers. These sponsorships range from athlete endorsements to the sponsorship of an event or physical venue. These types of sponsorships have a number of costs and benefits, as reviewed in this paper, and the individual firm must use its discretion whether sports sponsorship coincides with its marketing goals. NASCAR, a sport that has experienced a recent boom in popularity, is one of the most lucrative sponsorship venues in professional sports. NASCAR, which began as a single race in 1936, now claims seventy-five million fans and over one hundred FORTUNE 500 companies as sponsors. NASCAR offers a wide variety of sponsorship opportunities, such as driver sponsorship, event sponsorship, track signage, and a number of other options. This paper investigates the fan base at which these marketing messages are directed. Research of NASCAR fans indicates that these fans are typically more brand loyal than the average consumer. NASCAR fans exhibit particular loyalty to NASCAR sponsors that financially support the auto racing sport. The paper further explains who composes the NASCAR fan base and how NASCAR looks to expand into additional markets.

  • The NASCAR Playoff System Is Broken Who Had the Best Season? Part II
    The NASCAR Playoff System is Broken Who had the best season? Part II Kurk Altmann 9.9.2020 [email protected] Abstract The last paper showed that there was a flaw in the different playoff systems since the winner each season depended greatly on which playoff system was being used. With that said, it was not clear how to determine which playoff system was best and even more challenging to determine who had the best season. This paper sets out to determine which NASCAR driver between the years 1975-2019 had the best season.

It will never be possible to definitively determine who was the best driver because of equipment, era and other factors but it is possible to say who had the best season and how many best seasons a diver had. The driver with the best season all time also had the second-best season of all time and the name of that driver may surprise you.
