Sponsor to chase victory without winning kids over
Victory Brand, the sponsor of ppc Racing's nဣew Nextel Cup operation, has vowed to take a responsible approach to promotional activities relating to its backing of John Andretti's Ford entry.
The compa💧ny, manufacturers of only the second cigarette brand to break into NASCAR's primary series, has vowed that, despite using the sport to broaden its reach - and, hopefully, sales - it would not actively target anyone outside legal age. Instead, it aims to use if sponsorship to persuade brand switching among adult supporters.

"We are a very age-sensitive company," insisted CEO Steve Swick, "Our corporate policy expressly forbids market♒ing aimed at anyone other than smokers of legal age. That is an area both Victory Brand LLC and ppc Racing have discussed in full, an﷽d neither of us wants to sway from that.
"Our messa꧒ge is simple - 'if you are of legal age and you are a smoker, please try the VB brand cigarette'. We think race fans will like the quality and we're confident they will switch."
