CONCORD, N.C. (September 5, 2007) - Chip Ganassi Racing Teams, Inc.
(CGR), and Energizer Holdings, Inc. announced today a multi-year
extension to their long-lasting relationship that dates back over a
decade.  Energizer will continue to showcase its brand as a major
associate sponsor on the No. 41 Target Dodge driven by Reed Sorenson in
the NEXTEL Cup Series and both Target Chip Ganassi Racing (TCGR) entries
in the IndyCar Series driven by current championship contender (second
place) and past champion Scott Dixon and 2005 Indianapolis 500 winner
and series champion Dan Wheldon beginning with the start of the 2008
racing season.  

"We're thrilled to continue our long-lasting partnership with Target
Chip Ganassi Racing." said Jeff Ziminski, Chief Marketing Officer,
Energizer Battery. "Both Energizer and TCGR share an ongoing commitment
to quality and innovation. It's an honor to extend our pursuit of
excellence with an outstanding organization like TCGR."

In addition to the sponsorship extension, the No. 40 Dodge driven by
David Stremme in the NEXTEL Cup Series will feature a special Energizer
paint scheme in the upcoming events at Richmond International Raceway
(RIR) on Sept. 8, New Hampshire International Raceway on Sept. 16 and
Kansas Speedway on Sept. 30.  The paint scheme will highlight not only
the Energizer(r) e2(r) Lithium brand, the World's Longest Lasting
Battery in High Tech Devices, but a successful, 12-year partnership
between CGR and Energizer that keeps going and going. 

"I'm very pleased to announce we are continuing our partnership with
Energizer," said Team Owner Chip Ganassi.  "Our team is about building
mutually beneficial and long-lasting relationships, and I can't think of
a better example than the one we've formed with Energizer.  I'm proud to
be associated with such a respected organization and I look forward to
many more successful years together."
