“I’m looking forward to this weekend at Martinsville, ” said Braun. “To have a company like RSC Equipment Rental come on and sponsor us this weekend really means a lot. Many of their customers are NASCAR fans so to represent RSC Equipment Rental for the first time in a NASCAR arena is really cool. I along with John Quinn (crew chief) and the entire RSC Equipment Rental team will work as hard as we can to have a great finish on Saturday. “
“RSC and many of our customers and employees are huge fans of NASCAR and are excited to be a part of Martinsville this weekend, ” said Ellen Steck, vice president of marketing for RSC Equipment Rental. “Just as Colin will be driving hard for RSC on Saturday, we will be pulling for him to deliver a win, with the same passion that RSC has to ‘deliver’ for our customers. “

Braun signed with Roush Fenway Racing earlier this year and has run three ARCA RE/MAX Series races never finishing outside the top 10. In his first ARCA Series start at Gateway Braun finished a respectable ninth and two weeks ago at Talladega Superspeedway clocked his best qualifying effort in the series, third, led his first laps and looked to be a contender for the win until a late race move put him to ninth at the checkers.
