Gillett Evernham Motorsports announced a multi-year contract extension with driver Elliott Sadler.

“Elliott is a well respected driver who has the skills, both on and off the track, to succeed in NASCAR,” CEO Tom Reddin said.

“In addition to being a great Sprint Cup driver, Elliott has a wonderful personality that attracts fans and sponsors who love working with him. We have enjoyed working with Elliott over the last year and a half and look forward to continuing our relationship.”

Sadler, 33, joined Gillett Evernham Racing in 2006 and is glad to have a future with the team.

“This is the place where I want to race,” the Emporia, Va. native said. “I think what we are building here is special and something other drivers and crew members envy.”
