ATLANTA, March 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Veteran Jimmy Spencer will drive the #50 Dodge owned by Arnold Motorsports at the upcoming Atlanta and Bristol events in the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series. Arnold Motorsports has acquired sponsorship from U.S. Micro Corporation, based in Atlanta, for these two events.

U.S. Micro Corporation sponsored the #50 Arnold Motorsports entry at the fall Atlanta race in 2004 and is excited to rejoin the team this year with "Mr. Excitement" behind the wheel.

One of the nation's leading corporate IT asset management companies, U.S. Micro will remain the "official computer provider" for Arnold Motorsports. U.S. Micro's team sponsorship began in 2004, and the company will become the primary sponsor of the #50 Dodge for at least two NASCAR Nextel Cup events this year.

Jim Kegley, president of U.S. Micro, is looking forward to these two events for both personal and professional reasons. Atlanta is the headquarters of U.S. Micro, and Bristol is Kegley's hometown.

"U.S. Micro has been an active sponsor of NASCAR for a number of years now, and we have benefited from our sponsorship in a variety of ways - national exposure for our company, great perks for our employees and fantastic entertainment opportunities for our customers and prospects," Kegley said. "We enjoy all the Nextel Cup tracks, but the races in Atlanta and Bristol are even more meaningful because of the personal and business connections I have in both places."

Spencer is already scheduled to run the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series event at Atlanta and will drive all three events (NASCAR's Craftsman Truck, Busch and Nextel Cup Series) at Bristol.

"I'm excited about the opportunity to add these NASCAR Nextel Cup races to my schedule and feel we can be competitive in the Arnold Motorsports Dodge," said Spencer. "I've always liked running Atlanta with its fast speeds, and Bristol has always been exciting and one of my favorites. I think it's neat that we get this Nextel Cup opportunity at two very diverse tracks."

The Arnold Motorsports #50 Dodge will carry the same U.S. Micro paint scheme introduced at the 2004 fall Atlanta race for both the Golden Corral 500 (Atlanta) and the Food City 500 (Bristol).
