Valvoline, a brand of Ashland Consumer Markets, a commercial unit of Ashland Inc., and autoMedia.com are proud to announce a new partnership aimed to promote clean, green and efficient driving habits, bringing together the benefits of Valvoline?s new NextGen Recycled Motor Oil and the eco-minded autoMedia.com Green Corner. The NextGen brand will sponsor the online section, which highlights new products and offers advice to readers looking to improve driving efficiency and recycling knowledge.

Valvoline has long been a leader in automotive innovation. Its NextGen recycled motor oil is 50 percent recycled from used oil, making it better for the environment by reducing the need for new drilling and dependence on crude oil. Valvoline selects the highest quality recycled base oils, re-refines them, and formulates with its additive technology to ensure the oil meets their high standards.

How good is it? This season, Roush Fenway Racing is using Valvoline NextGen Recycled Oil technology in all of its NASCAR Sprint Cup entries. Any questions about the performance of NextGen were quickly answered in 2012, as Roush and driver Matt Kenseth won the hallowed Daytona 500 powered by NextGen technology. Roush teammates Greg Biffle and Carl Edwards qualified on the front row, making a clean sweep for NextGen during one of the most famous race weekends in the world. If NextGen can handle one of the most rigorous competitions around and come out on top, it’s sure to provide excellent protection in any car.

To prove that Valvoline isn’t just trying to sell more products, they’re offering a $ 20 store gift card mail-in offer to any consumer participating in the new Close the Loop program when consumers return used oil and buy 5 quarts of NextGen motor oil. By choosing Valvoline NextGen then changing your car?s oil and finally returning the used oil, Valvoline is redefining the idea of what it means to ?close the loop? on motor oil recycling. Consumers can visit Valvoline.com to see participating auto-parts retailers and find out more details.

In its continuing efforts to educate and inform its customers, Mexican Insurance Store has been publishing higher volumes of new blog posts than ever. The company, which is a leading provider of online Mexican auto insurance, uses its blog to provide clear, concise advice and information to its customers and prospective customers. New posts are made daily, so there is always updated and current information available. “There are too many Mexican auto insurance sites out there that are essentially dormant,” says Linden Gray, the president of Mexican Insurance Store. “What does that say to the customers? It says that a company doesn’t really care. We do care, which is why we go to such great lengths to keep our blog updated with fresh, relevant information.”

The Mexican Insurance Store blog can be found at blog.mexicaninsurancestore.com. It has been active for a number of years, which is a lot longer than the Mexico car insurance blogs of most of its competitors. The blog can be accessed through links on the main page of the Mexican Insurance Store website. In the beginning, new posts were made every few days. Recently, however, the Mexican auto insurance provider has been posting new entries a lot more frequently. “We’ve learned that people aren’t interested in reading things that were posted last week,” says one employee. “They want fresh, up-to-date information, so that’s what we provide.”

People who are planning vacations to Mexico can peruse the blog to find updated information about buying Mexico car insurance. The blog features articles that cover the basics of buying this type of insurance. It also has posts that cover specific locations. Information about finding the best Mexico car insurance prices online is also provided. “Of course, the easiest way to get a really competitive rate on great coverage is by purchasing it from Mexican Insurance Store,” says the employee. “We are confident that we have the best prices around, and we are proud to offer only the best quality too.”

Customers are happy about the increased frequency of posts on the Mexican Insurance Store blog. “I’ve found a lot of really useful information through the blog,” says one customer. “The entries are informative, interesting and well-written. You can tell that Mexican Insurance Store cares about providing great information to its customers.” Customers are also happy that they can subscribe to the blog through a convenient button. The button allows people to use RSS technology to stay updated about the blog. “I use the RSS feed to be alerted to new entries,” says the customer. “That way, I’m able to stay on top of new Mexican auto insurance news easily.”

Mexican Insurance Store plans to continue to put a lot of work and effort into its blog for the foreseeable future. “As long as people seem to be getting something out of it, we will continue to keep it updated,” says Gray. “If I’ve learned anything about online content, it’s that it has to be fresh and updated regularly to be effective. We’re perfectly happy to put in the time and effort that it takes to maintain the blog as long as people find it worthwhile, which they clearly do.” The company may offer additional online content soon, and it will announce such changes when they are made.

Rocket21, (the only social networking platform designed to safely connect kids and teens with professionals and experts representing industries, professions, passions, and movements that span the globe), joined with Roush Fenway Racing and Charlotte Motor Speedway to announce a collaboration that will harness the popularity of NASCAR to help kids consider the importance of teamwork in their everyday lives ? and their futures.

Rocket21 is hosting an essay and video competition which invites kids and teens under 18 to consider what fuels their passions, what teamwork means to them, and what kind of competitor they are ? or would like to become. Rocket21 members will engage with Roush Fenway Racing drivers, crew chiefs, and more ? to learn about the sport from an insider?s perspective. Later this month, a Rocket21 member and his or her family will attend the HISTORY 300 NASCAR Nationwide Series race at the historic Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina.

?Professional auto racing requires a mind-boggling range of skilled and talented professionals working together at every race,? said Mark Grayson, Rocket21 CEO. ?Our Dream Big at the Races experience and activities with Roush Fenway and Charlotte Motor Speedway will reinforce this for kids in fun, engaging ways.?

NASCAR Nationwide Series champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Trevor Bayne, the youngest winner in the history of the Daytona 500, will be key players in the Rocket21 program.

?On and off the track, the competition between Trevor and Ricky is well-known,? noted Steve Newmark, president of Roush Fenway Racing. ?But, what we?re excited for kids to learn more about ? is that the two are also great friends, and extraordinarily supportive of one another. And, perhaps most importantly ? that dozens of mechanics, engineers, and crew members bring their amazing skills to the track in support of the race team. Winning at the highest level of racing ? as in most things in life – really is a team effort, and we?re excited to share some of Roush Fenway?s tradition of winning with the Rocket21 community.?

?Charlotte Motor Speedway is always searching for ways to engage young race fans and it didn?t take much convincing for us to jump at this creative partnership opportunity with Rocket21,? said Adrian Parker, Director of Communications at Charlotte Motor Speedway. ?The HISTORY 300 is the perfect event for these kids to get acclimated to NASCAR and discover the importance of teamwork in the NASCAR garage. While a select few will receive the behind-the-scenes, V.I.P. treatment, it?s important to note that all kids 13 and under can get in free to the HISTORY 300 with a paying adult.?
