Winston and Nextel

today see's Nextel take over sponsorship of the Nascar series , but I was wondering about the history of Winston as the series sponsor.

Is there anywhere that I can find out detailed information about this long running partnership that has sadly come to an end ?

It ran for 30+ years and was originally intended to sponsor ONE car.

Marcus, you might want to check this out: http://www.thatsracin.com/mld/thatsracin/7376342.htm

Maybe now that the relationship has ended, someone might write the story of RJ Reynolds and Nascar? There doesn't appear to be anything definitive around now.
