US motor-racing team Penske Racing has extended and enhanced its commercial partnership with manufacturing firm Carlisle Companies Incorporated.

The deal will start immediately and run until the end of the 2016 season.

In addition to Carlisle’s continued support of the No. 2 Miller Lite Ford Fusion car driven by Brad Keselowski in the Nascar stock racing series, the new agreement will also include associate branding for the company on a Team Penske IndyCar Series car beginning in 2014.
