Go Fas Racing announced on Tuesday that Pala Casino will sponsor Corey LaJoie and the No. 32 Ford Mustang for two Cup races in 2020.
Pala Casino is located in California’s Palomar Mountains and offers a Spa and Resort as well as a Las Vegas style casino with 2,000 + slot machines, 84 table games, eight poker tables, and 15,000 square foot smoke-free casino area.
In addition, the location has a 507-room hotel, five swimming pools, two hot tubs, 14 luxury cabanas, a 10,000 square-foot full-service spa and a salon that features 17 treatment rooms, two cabanas and a fitness room.
With all that said, the resort also has been a AAA Four-Diamond Award winner for 15 straight years!
“We are inspired by Corey LaJoie’s commitment to his fans and charity work,” said Coley McAvoy, spokesperson for Pala in a team press release. “Over the past 18 years, the Pala Band of Mission Indians and Pala Casino have shown the same passion and enthusiasm for its guests and contributing to the benefit of the local community. We’re proud to partner with a team that’s all about their fans as much as we are.”
Pala Casino will make their NASCAR Cup Series debut at Auto Club Speedway this spring and they will return to the No. 32 Ford Mustang for the 2020 season finale at Phoenix Raceway.
LaJoie who in December re-signed a one-year deal to remain behind the wheel of the No. 32 Ford also weighed in on the new sponsorship.
“This is a really big year for our team with all of these new partnerships and announcements and we’re really excited to welcome Pala to our GFR team. I can’t wait to get out to the West Coast and play some games at the casino and enjoy everything that their resort has to offer. I hope we’ll be seeing a lot of fans staying at the resort while we’re out on the West Coast because we’ll have a lot of cool stuff for them to be a part of,” said LaJoie.
The 2020 NASCAR Cup Series season will officially begin on Sunday February 16 with the 62nd annual Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway. The event is slated for 2:30 p.m. live on Fox.
