NBC has announced a partnership with Yates Racing and Ford Motor Company to sponsor Travis Kvapil's No. 28 "Knight Rider" Ford for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Bristol Motor Speedway this Sunday. The sponsorship by NBC of the No. 28 Ford comes in anticipation of the television series premiere of NBC's "Knight Rider" on Wednesday, September 24th at 8:00 p.m. EST.

On the heels of NBC's hit movie, the iconic 1980's television classics comes roaring back to life as a reinvented, updated and super-charged action series showcasing the new KITT (Knight Industries Three Thousand). As absolutely the coolest car ever created, KITT is equipped with "AI" (artificial intelligence) that is capable of hacking into almost any system. The vehicle's weapon system matches that of a jet fighter, its body is capable of transforming into other vehicles, and the car uses sophisticated holographic imagery to elude villains.
