Alsco has signed a multi-year extension of its race entitlements at Kentucky Speedway and Charlotte Motor Speedway along with becoming the title sponsor of the April NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway.
The race boosts Alsco’s NASCAR Xfinity Series entitlements to three.
Alsco is the only company with multiple race sponsorships on the NASCAR Xfinity Series schedule in 2019.
The Alsco 300 at Kentucky Speedway takes place Friday, July 12 with television coverage provided by NBCSN.
“We have been blessed with some fantastic long term sponsors and Alsco is at the top of that list,” said Mark Simendinger, General Manager, Kentucky Speedway. “To have an industry leader choose to not only extend their relationship with us, but grow it with now two additional SMI race entitlements, is rewarding for the whole Kentucky team. Alsco will no doubt have a great experience at Bristol and Charlotte, but also come back to their Kentucky home for many years to come.”

Alsco is a fourth-generation family owned and operated business, founded in 1889, that was recognized by the prestigious Hohenstein Institute for having invented the linen and uniform rental industry.
The Alsco 300 at Bristol Motor Speedway takes place Saturday, April 6 and the Alsco 300 at Charlotte Motor Speedway will be held Saturday, May 25.
“We are proud to expand our level of involvement with NASCAR by adding a third Alsco 300 to the Xfinity Series schedule, this one at Bristol Motor Speedway,” said Jim Divers, Alsco’s director of sales and marketing. “The folks at Bristol go out of their way to make sure everyone feels like they’re at home when they visit there. It’s such an incredible experience. We felt like it was the perfect place to add another race entitlement.”
In addition to the trio of Xfinity Series races, Alsco has expanded its hospitality package in 2019 with Speedway Motorsports, Inc., in order to provide race experiences for employees, customers and prospects at more venues, including Atlanta Motor Speedway, Sonoma Raceway, Las Vegas Motor Speedway and Texas Motor Speedway.
Alsco also provides sponsorship on the NASCAR team level with Richard Petty Motorsports and Richard Childress Racing. Look for another team announcement from Alsco later this month.
