CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Daytona 500 winner Trevor Bayne has sponsorship to run the Sprint All-Star Race next month at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Bayne qualified for the $1 million race when he won the season-opening Daytona 500. But he’s running a limited schedule with the Wood Brothers Racing team, and didn’t have the funding for the May 21 all-star race.

Good Sam Club announced Tuesday it will sponsor Bayne in both the All-Star race and the event Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway.

The Wood Brothers say Bayne is still scheduled to run only 18 Sprint Cup races this season and the All-Star event. The team currently does not have sponsorship for the entire 36-race schedule.
