Seems Force racing specifically the TF car of force racing has picked up Monster Energy Drinks as a major sponsor and an associate sponsor for the rest of the herd--- Thought NHRA specifically ruled that ABSOLUTELY no other energy drinks other than those of the Coca Cola Company would be allowed to have any signage (advertising) appear on uniforms/haulers/race cars/ race track premises--TOTALLY VERBOTEN!!!!!- OK what happened??? Is it JFR racing or what- curious minds want to know --FED 387

Coca Cola owns the distribution rights to Monster.

Didn't Kenny Bernstein loose his Monster Sponsorship because of this rule? This was when Poweraid ran the show? This is Coke owned correct?

PowerAide and RockStar are on the Wiki list, but I don't see Monster.
Link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Coca-Cola_brands EDIT: In August 2014 Coke bought a 16.7% stake in Monster. No news that they have sold it, so Coke is a part owner of Monster. Dale

Dale,
It looks to me like they just bought into the Monster brand and are doing the marketing and distribution. (15% share) I don't think it will carry the Coke-A-Cola branding. Coke will still have it's own brand of power drinks. Monster will still be it's own company and brand. I could be wrong, but that is what I think I see.
