| | By SceneDaily Staff Roush Fenway Racing officials said Crown Royal and Irwin Industrial Tools will again sponsor Jamie McMurray and the No. 26 Ford in the Sprint Cup Series next season.
Crown Royal will serve as primary sponsor for 25 races, the Budweiser Shootout on Feb. 9 and the all-star race May 17. Irwin will sponsor McMurray for 11 races.
Larry Carter returns as crew chief for the team.
"I'm really proud to have both Crown Royal and Irwin Industrials Tools as my primary sponsors again in 2008," McMurray said. "When you first come to a new team, like I did two years ago when I joined Roush Fenway Racing, it not only takes time to learn the new guys on the team, but also the sponsors. Over the last two years, I've built some really strong relationships with both the guys at Crown Royal and Irwin Industrials Tools."
McMurray joined Roush in 2006, posting three top-five and seven top-10 finishes to finish 25th in points. In 2007, McMurray won the second Daytona race and had three top-fives, nine top-10s and one pole to finish 17th in points.
