Guitar Hero: Aerosmith will sponsor Franchitti at New HampshireChip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates announced today it has partnered with Activision and its long-time sponsor Target to have Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, the latest installment from the #1 best-selling video game franchise of 2007, on Dario Franchitti’s No. 40 Dodge in the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on June 29.  Franchitti will be making his debut in the Sprint Cup Series at New Hampshire in the fading yellow to red Target/Guitar Hero: Aerosmith Dodge.  The 2007 IndyCar champion has nine starts this season in his rookie campaign in the Cup Series and the No. 40 Dodge currently sits 39th in the 2008 owner points standings.

"I love video games and actually have versions of Guitar Hero that I play on my bus and at home.  To have Target, Activision and Aerosmith on my car for the New Hampshire race is pretty cool.  Who doesn’t love Aerosmith’s music; it’s perfect for getting ready for the side-by-side, non-stop action of NASCAR racing," said Dario Franchitti.  (From ChipGanassiRacing.com)
