Bilicki expressed his excitement about the partnership, stating, "The Bristol Night Race is one of my favorite races in NASCAR, so partnering with an iconic brand like Flair Spirits is a perfect fit." Flair Spirits' co-owner Carl Long also shared his enthusiasm, saying, "I grew up watching Flair on Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling, and it's an honor to represent a brand that reflects that legacy on our No. 66 Ford Mustang."

The partnership between Flair Spirits and Garage 66 is a significant step in the brand's expansion into the world of motorsports. With Flair Spirits' award-winning spirits and Garage 66's competitive racing team, this collaboration is sure to make a lasting impact on the NASCAR scene.
