CONCORD, NC (April 27, 2012) – With 2012 being an election year, Earnhardt Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (EGR) today kicks off the inaugural “Rock the EGR Vote” campaign.  The campaign aims to engage fans through special social media promotions and giveaways while encouraging them to cast their vote for EGR drivers Juan Pablo Montoya and Jamie McMurray.  Both drivers are eligible for the Sprint Fan Vote, giving the No. 42 Target driver and No. 1 Bass Pro Shops/McDonald’s driver an opportunity to earn a spot in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series All-Star Race on May 19 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. 

The unique campaign will feature a number of promotions designed to reward EGR fans for supporting McMurray and Montoya up until the green flag flies for the All-Star race on May 19.  “Rock the EGR Vote” will be driven by EGR’s social media platforms and include contests, videos, prizes and more.  Become a fan on Facebook and join the conversation on Twitter using #EGRforAllStar.
