In a statement to the Sports Business Journal, said its "three-year run as a sponsor for Hendrick's Motorsports and Kasey Kahne will conclude following the end of the NASCAR Cup Series season.

LiftMaster and Hendrick entered into the deal in 2014 to sponsor the No. 5 driven by Kasey Kahne. The deal called for LiftMaster to sponsor three races a year.
Hendrick released Kahne from his deal this season, and he's since announced he's joining Leavine Family Racing.
Losing any sponsor in today's climate is a big deal, no matter how many races they sponsor.
