Realtree, the world’s leading designer, marketer and licensor of camo, will partner with Richard Childress Racing to sponsor the No. 8 Chevrolet driven by Tyler Reddick at Talladega Superspeedway. The race is scheduled to be broadcast live on Sunday, October 2 at 2 pm ET on NBC.
“I’m really looking forward to racing at Talladega Superspeedway with everyone from Realtree,” said Tyler Reddick, driver of the No. 8 Reatlree Chevrolet in the NASCAR Cup Series. “Talladega is such an iconic track, and Realtree and RCR have such a long and successful history together there. I look forward to the opportunity to make Bill, Tyler and everyone at Realtree proud as I introduce a pretty cool new pattern for racing fans.”
The longtime RCR partner, which began its association with the No. 3 Chevrolet driven by Dale Earnhardt, will use the race to highlight the Realtree MAX-7, a versatile pattern specially designed for use on various migratory routes, through from North America.
“Realtree MAX-7 features photorealistic images of common elements found in open waterfowl habitat, such as reeds, mud, cattails, milo and corn,” said Tyler Jordan, strategic business coordinator for Realtree. “MAX-7 combines these elements in the foreground of the pattern with a highly detailed layer of cracked mud and moss in the background to tie the pattern together and enhance its hiding capabilities with shadows and reflections. We can’t wait to introduce our most effective open-country waterfowl pattern yet to racing fans at Talladega Superspeedway.”
The No. 8 Richard Childress Racing team has posted three NASCAR Cup Series race wins so far in 2022, including its most recent victory on Sept. 25 at Texas Motor Speedway. Reddick and the No. 8 team enter the race at Talladega ranked 13th in the NASCAR Cup Series championship standings thanks to their 10 top-five and 13 top-10 finishes.
