2011 Paul Menard #33 Rheem Menards 1:24 NASCAR Diecast

Fans will not only see two-time Nationwide Series champion Harvick pilot the No. 33 Rheem Chevrolet, but also a variety of RCR drivers will join him throughout the season. Clint Bowyer will debut a new edition of the classic red and black Rheem paint scheme at Daytona ( Fla.) International Speedway on February 19, 2011. Having recently announced an alliance with RCR for the Nationwide Series program, Austin Dillon will also pilot the No. 33 KHI Chevrolet in 4 races in 2011.

KHI has also signed a multi-year sponsorship with Menards to serve as the primary sponsor for 12 races in both the 2011 and 2012 Nationwide Series season. Harvick will debut a new yellow and black paint scheme at Phoenix International Raceway on February 26, 2011 for the first scheduled Menards race event. With Menards being the largest consumer supplier in the U.S. of Richmond brand water heating products, one of Rheem Manufacturing Company’s quality brands, this will mark the first time that Menards will blend its traditional paint scheme with the classic black Rheem paint scheme to showcase its association with Rheem. Richmond water heaters will serve as associate sponsor of the 33 car for these 12 races.

For the Menards races, Harvick will share the driver’s seat with Paul Menard and a variety of RCR drivers. This will mark the first time that multiple drivers will pilot the Menards car during a season. Menard has driven the familiar Menards paint scheme in both the Nationwide and Cup series throughout his career and will continue the tradition next season as he joins KHI in the Nationwide Series.
