The Friends of Coal racing team, featuring driver Derek Kizer of Sissonville, continues to move forward. The team has secured Dixon Hughes as a sponsor and took advantage of the media attention to Friends of Coal Bowl week to bring further attention to their efforts.
The team held a press event in Morgantown on Tuesday to announce the new sponsorship. On Friday, they parked the car in downtown Charleston, which drew quite a crowd and resulted in nearly 100 memberships for the Friends of Coal. The team was also present at the Friends of Coal tailgate function in Huntington Saturday.
