Tulsa-Based Foundation Receives National Attention As Title Sponsor For Folds Of Honor QuikTrip 500

Saturday will mark the start of a huge weekend for the Tulsa-based Folds of Honor Foundation.

It will get hours of national television exposure as the title sponsor of NASCAR's Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500.

Qualifying was Friday afternoon, and Kyle Busch won the pole. The second annual race is Sunday in Atlanta.

QuikTrip pays for the naming rights but puts Folds of Honor's name first.

The foundation provides scholarships for children of military members killed or wounded serving our country.

Drivers are excited about Sunday's race.

"I think you've going to see some great racing,” said Sprint Cup driver Carl Edwards. “I mean this track is just perfect. I think strategy is going to be a big part of it. It's just going to be a tough race. It's going to be tough to stay focused, to manage your car. That whole time in these cars, even in practice now, you are just driving the heck out of them."
