JOLIET, July 10, 2009: Joe Nemechek has secured sponsorship for both his Sprint Cup and Nationwide entries at this weekend's NASCAR races at Chicagoland Speedway.

NYC Bagel Deli, a Chicago-based deli/restaurant known for its kettle-boiled bagels, cream cheeses, smoked fish and Boar’s Head premium meats and cheeses, has agreed to be a primary sponsor on Nemechek's No. 87 Chevrolet in Friday night's Nationwide Series race and his No. 87 Toyota Camry in Saturday night's Sprint Cup event.

"We're both proud and excited about obtaining a local sponsor -- NYC Bagel Deli -- for the races at Chicagoland," said Nemechek. "We all know the food is great at NYC Bagel Deli and we're going to do everything we can to give (owner) Corey Kaplan a special weekend both on and off the track."
