Did Craftsman get a discount to renew sponsorship of the truck series?

May be...

Has any of the terms of the contract been released to the public?

Craftsman did not renew its contract to sponsor the Truck series, it renewed it deal to be "The Official Tools" of NASCAR. Camping World is the new sponsor of the truck series. Being an "official" supplier of a product is a considerably less investment then being a title sponsor of one of their national touring series. The terms of the contract are probably very similar to the other "official" products of NASCAR such as Coors Light (official beer), Best Western (official hotel), and Bank of America (official bank).

It's possible....I am sure Nascar wanted to keep as many sponsors as possible no matter how big or small the commitment. I work in retail and have for years....the talk amongst our industry is that Sears/K-mart
the owners of the Craftsman line....will most likely file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this year. So to me, Nascar had to cut 'em a deal or they wouldn't/couldn't afford to do so. No, I don't think NASCAR ever releases facts/figures of contingency sponsors....don't remember them ever doing that....I could be wrong. Just an opinion as always.how much are the cheapest gamecubes
