Benson To Drive New Paint Scheme At Richmond


When the green flag falls at Richmond International Raceway on Saturday May 3
Johnny Benson plans to fly his new Eagle One Wax-As-U-Dry paint scheme to the
front of the field on the D-shaped oval.

Richmond's night race is a favorite among the NASCAR Winston Cup fans as well
as the driver of the #10 Pontiac.

"Richmond is one of our most exciting races of the year and I think the folks
at Valvoline and Eagle One picked a pretty good race to run the Wax-As-U-Dry
paint scheme," Benson said. "They say Wax-As-U-Dry saves time and effort and
that's good news for me because it's normally hard work getting around that
track."

"We put the  focus of the primetime Saturday night race on Eagle One's hottest
selling product," said Bob Craycraft, vice president and general manager of
a lexington oil co.'s Eagle One business unit. "The rest is up to Johnny."

Benson is currently tenth in points and earned his first career victory in
Rockingham in November. Benson has five top-10 finishes at Richmond.
FX will televise the race at 7 p.m.

Eagle One brand includes premium waxes, polishes and cleaners.
Wax-As-U-Dry is a much easier way to wax your vehicle. Wax As-U-Dry is
specifically designed to wax your car as you dry it. A special blend of water
reactive polymers and waxes provides that just hand waxed look in one simple
spray-on formula that saves time and effort.
