Wallace, Stacker 2 sign multi-year deal with BDR.

NVE Pharmaceuticals and Bill Davis Racing have inked a multi-year deal with Kenny Wallace and Stacker 2.

Wallace will drive the No. 23 NASCAR Winston Cup Dodge beginning in 2003 and will carry Stacker 2, "The World's Strongest Fat BurnerT" as its primary sponsor.

Wallace, a veteran driver in both the NASCAR Winston Cup and Busch Series ranks, is thrilled about the opportunity of returning full-time to NASCAR Winston Cup Series competition for Bill Davis Racing.

"This is a dream come true for me," said Wallace. "I'm so lucky to have a sponsor that's so supportive and their involvement in NASCAR. Competing on the Winston Cup level is no easy task, as the competition is so close these days. You have to be with a team that can win races, and Bill Davis Racing has proven that. I feel very fortunate that I'll have the opportunity to be part of an organization with such great history. Bill's a racer and he knows what it takes to win. He's committed to giving his teams everything they need to run up front and that's where I plan to take the Stacker 2 Dodge - to the front!"

Davis, felt Wallace and Stacker 2 were a perfect addition to Bill Davis Racing.

"I'm very excited about Kenny and Stacker 2 coming aboard," said Davis. "Stacker 2 is extremely committed to their involvement in NASCAR. They do a lot of creative things to compliment their involvement as a sponsor. The ads are humorous and who could be a better spokesperson for Stacker 2 than Kenny?

"I've known Kenny since he was a kid and we're great friends. He comes from a strong racing family and while his personality is fun and light-hearted, his will to win is very serious. I watched what he was capable of while subbing for Steve Park in the No. 1 DEI car. He did an amazing job and we feel it's just the beginning of what he can do behind the wheel of a race car. We're committed to provide them with the necessary tools needed to be successful on the Winston Cup level."

NVE Pharmaceuticals is also excited about the move to a full-time NASCAR Winston Cup team.

"We have had such success with our NASCAR sponsorship that we are ready to take it to a new level," said Karen Finocchio, Vice President of Marketing for NVE Pharmaceuticals. "Moving to the Winston Cup Series was the next step in our marketing program and we are 100 percent committed to Kenny. We know Kenny has the talent to compete at the Winston Cup level, so we were looking for an outfit that could provide him with the resources to be competitive. Once we met with Bill, we were immediately impressed with his organization. He runs a first-class racing operation and we knew we had found a home for us and Kenny."
