NASCAR fans can get an close-up look at a real stock car Friday in Kirkland. The No. 99 Aflac Ford Fusion show car will be at Ford of Kirkland, located at 11800 124th Ave. N.E.
The show car will be available from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. for fans to get photos with. Roush Fenway Racing staff will also be in hand to answer questions.
The No. 99 Aflac Ford Fusion show car is jet black, with bright green and blue accents, and is a retired version of the vehicle Carl Edwards drives throughout the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season. The show car is also equipped with a replica motor like those used on the track by Roush Fenway Racing teams.
“The No. 99 Aflac Ford Fusion show car gives fans the chance to get up close to a real stock car, just like the ones we drive on the track each week. And it’s an exact copy of the great paint scheme we sport – complete with the Aflac duck on board,” said Edwards.
Edwards finished the 2010 Sprint Cup season fourth in points standings. Fans can access exclusive video, race recaps, enter contests, download Aflac ringtones and purchase Aflac Racing gear on www.AflacRacing.com or by visiting Facebook.com/aflacracing.
