<\/a><\/p>\nSo when menswear brand COOFANDY was looking for a team and driver to partner with for this year\u2019s race at the legendary road course, Bell was an easy choice.<\/p>\n
Some Great Scenery And An Endless Amount Of History<\/p>\n
Nestled into the Finger Lakes of upstate New York, there is perhaps no more scenic race track on the NASCAR circuit than Watkins Glen. The series first raced at the illustrious circuit all the way back in 1957, and has been coming to the track annually since 1986.<\/p>\n
When you look around, not just at the scenery, but the incredible crowds of dedicated race fans, it\u2019s easy to see why. Despite typically unpredictable Spring weather in the northeast, fans turned out in droves to camp in the infield and watch the sport\u2019s biggest stars duke it out.<\/p>\n
And it\u2019s easy to see why when you take just a quick look at Watkins Glen\u2019s history.<\/p>\n
Not only has it hosted NASCAR races, but it\u2019s also hosted Formula 1 races, IndyCar races, IMSA races, and just about everything in between.<\/p>\n
To claim victory at \u201cThe Glen\u201d is to put yourself alongside legendary names such as Jackie Stewart, Graham Hill, Mario Andretti, Jeff Gordon, and Tony Stewart.<\/p>\n
And Bell knows how to get around the famed track as well as anyone in the series. In five starts prior to this year\u2019s race, he\u2019s finished inside the top 10 four times, including a runner-up finish a year ago.<\/p>\n
So it\u2019s easy to understand why he told COOFANDY and BroBible that he liked his chances this time around, especially after qualifying in eighth position.<\/p>\n
A High Quality Partner For A Race With The Highest Of Standards<\/p>\n
While the NASCAR of old was all about season-long primary sponsors, such as Jeff Gordon\u2019s famed DuPont scheme and Dale Earnhardt\u2019s legendary Goodwrench car, the game has changed in recent years.<\/p>\n
Now, teams are constantly on the lookout for emerging brands that not only want to get in on the sport but can also live up to the high expectations of a race team with a reputation like JGR.<\/p>\n
Gibbs, the team\u2019s namesake and Hall of Fame NFL coach, first entered the sport in 1992, and all he\u2019s done since is win. Joe Gibbs Racing has five NASCAR Cup Series championships and has won 499 races across NASCAR\u2019s various levels.<\/p>\n
So if you\u2019re going to associate with the team, you\u2019ve got some high expectations to meet.<\/p>\n
