Indiana Members Credit Union (IMCU) will sponsor Sarah Fisher Racing at the Indy 500.

The company sponsored Fisher's Honda-powered Dallara last May, and will back her for the second year, along with her primary sponsors Dollar General. Fisher filmed an television commercial for IMCU last week.

"To return another sponsor to SFR is amazing for our team," said Fisher. "IMCU joined SFR at a time when we were really hurting. Ron Collier was really pleased with the return IMCU saw from their involvement with SFR and we are really happy to have them back for a second year."

Collier, IMCU's chief executive, added: "Indiana Members Credit Union is proud to once again help Sarah Fisher as she participates in the 93rd running of the Indianapolis 500. We wish the entire Sarah Fisher Racing team the best of luck in the month of May and appreciate her support of Indiana Members Credit Union."
