“We had an exciting first season with Landon Cassill and we can’t wait to see what he and JD Motorsports accomplish this year,” said Dave Euson, G&K’s Vice President of Marketing and Sales. “Getting to connect with NASCAR® fans across the country keeps us coming back year after year and we’re proud to see G&K’s logo on the track.”

"We’ve had a great partnership with the folks at G&K for the past six years,” said Johnny Davis, JD Motorsports team owner. “Their participation with our team has been beneficial to both sides, and it really showed this year as we ran so well in many races. We’re looking forward to what the future holds.”

In 2014, Landon Cassill, who also ran the full Sprint Cup schedule, finished 12th in the Nationwide® (now XFINITY®) driver standings. Last year he had top-10 race runs at Talladega, Iowa, and Road America. Landon made his NASCAR® Nationwide® Series debut in 2007 and won the NASCAR® Nationwide® Series Rookie of the Year award in 2008.

To kick off the season, G&K will be running a sweepstakes from February 16 through March 21, 2015. One winner will be selected to win ten tickets to a 2015 NASCAR® XFINITY® Series race of their choice. To enter, visit: www.gkservices.com/wintickets.
