Harrah's Entertainment, Inc. on Tuesday announced it would serve as primary sponsor of driver Larry Foyt this season in NASCAR's Winston Cup Series.

Under the terms of the two-year sponsorship deal, Foyt will drive the No. 14 Harrah's Dodge Intrepid for A.J. Foyt Racing, the team owned by the 25-year-old rookie's father and racing legend. The younger Foyt will make his Winston Cup debut Feb. 16 in the Daytona 500 -- a race his father won in 1972.
