January 20, 2011 By admin Leave a Comment


Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) October 19, 2006 -–

Stoneacre, Inc. (http://www.stoneacrepartners.com), a leading developer of affinity and customer loyalty programs and the operator of the Official NASCAR Members Club and NASCAR RacePoints sm under exclusive license from NASCAR (http://www.nascar.com), announced today new online social networking capabilities for the Official NASCAR Members Club that will enhance the Club’s current offline VIP benefits. The new service provides an exclusive place for NASCAR fans to network, socialize and share their passion for NASCAR. This new capability, which is currently available to fans through the Official NASCAR Members Club, enables fans to publish individual blogs, customize the NASCAR news they want to receive, and communicate with like-minded NASCAR fans who share similar interests, in addition to receiving exclusive VIP benefits.

“In addition to their passion for the sport, NASCAR fans share many common interests that include a diverse range of social, outdoor, hobby and lifestyle activities,” said Patrick Brady, Chairman & CEO of Stoneacre, Inc., the operator of the Official NASCAR Members Club, the only fan membership program licensed by NASCAR. “From the outset, the Official NASCAR Members Club has provided a social networking infrastructure to build local, national and global communities through our offline programs, including over 1,000 Local Chapters already in the US. Now our enhanced online capability will take our NASCAR community to a new level.” The enhanced offering by the ONMC will enable NASCAR fans to find others with similar interests, and provide simple community and socialization tools that will allow fans to enjoy their passion and lifestyle like never before. “For NASCAR fans, combining online and offline social community tools through the ONMC is a powerful way to unite the NASCAR Nation,” said Brady. “It’s as if ‘MySpace’ had actual Club events, NASCAR ticket packages and VIP experiences to offer everyone that listed NASCAR as one of their passions.”

The new social networking tools will accelerate the viral growth of NASCAR’s Official Club. The tools enable NASCAR fans to easily publish individual blogs, and create a personal profile to search and connect with other fans in the community. Through RSS technology already available on the ONMC home page, fans can also customize the NASCAR news alerts they wish to receive at their desktop, and instantly learn about exclusive ONMC VIP benefits such as advanced sales of exclusive race ticket packages, opportunities to attend NASCAR Driver events, and invitations to local NASCAR activities organized by Local Chapters of the Club.

“Social Networking particularly appeals to NASCAR’s younger fans which is a rapidly growing audience. Research shows that NASCAR’s viewership among 12-17 year olds grew 37 percent over the last five years,” continued Brady. “More importantly, NASCAR fans are the sporting industry’s most loyal and don’t exhibit the fickleness attributed to other social network communities.”

Other exclusive ONMC Member benefits include VIP Treatment at NASCAR events; 24/7 insider information and NASCAR Driver reports; discounts from NASCAR sponsors and licensees; limited-edition merchandise and collectibles offers, access to NASCAR Local Chapters and more than 160,000 discounts on dining, shopping and entertainment.
