MOORESVILLE, N.C. (September 16, 2017) – Richard Petty Motorsports (RPM) announced today a multi-year associate partnership with Grunt Style. The Patriotic apparel line will debut on the No. 43 Ford this weekend in Chicago and will return to the car for Veteran’s Day weekend in Phoenix.

RPM and “The King” Richard Petty have a long history of supporting the military with partner United States Air Force and their support of the Paralyzed Veterans of America, making this a perfect partnership.
“I’m thrilled to join forces with Grunt Style,” said co-owner Richard Petty. “We meet with a lot of military members at each and every race. It will be great to have a partner that will channel their love for our country into what they wear. We can’t wait to have them at the track with us this weekend.”
