Carl Michael Edwards, II (born August 15, 1979) is an NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and Nation Wide Series driver for Roush Fenway Racing. He is the defending Nationwide Series Champion. Edwards is popular among fans for celebrating his wins by doing a backflip off his car (or truck), a style of celebration he took from sprint car driver Tyler Walker.
In the Sprint Cup Series, Edwards drives the #99 Ford Fusion that is primarily sponsored by Office Depot (other one-race primary sponsors have included: Pennzoil, Stonebridge Life Insurance, and the American Automobile Association). This year Aflac will sponsor the #99 in 8 races and Claritin will sponsor the #99 in a few spring races. His #60 Nationwide Series car, also a Ford Fusion, is sponsored by Scotts-Miracle Gro (and their brands, Scotts, Miracle-Gro, Ortho and Roundup), Dish Network, Citigroup, Vitaminwater, and World Financial Group.
