Brett Moffitt, Niece Motorsports Pairing for 2021 Truck Run

Despite planning a full-time schedule in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2021, Brett Moffitt isn’t done yet with the Camping World Truck Series.

Moffitt will compete for the championship in Niece Motorsports’ No. 45 in 2021 in the series, the team announced Dec. 2.

“I am so thankful to Al Niece (team owner), Cody Efaw (team manager) and everyone at Niece Motorsports for this opportunity,” Moffitt said in a release. “To be able to compete full time in both the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and the Xfinity Series is a challenge I look forward to. Chris Our, Our Motorsports and Chevrolet were a big part of helping this all come together, so a big thank you to them as well.”

Moffitt previously announced he was driving full time for Our Motorsports in the Xfinity Series, a role he will also hold, giving him two full-time series in 2021.

Moffitt joins a Niece squad that currently includes Carson Hocevar and Ryan Truex as the team’s other full-time drivers.

In 2020, Moffitt ran a second season with GMS Racing in the Truck Series, finishing third in points with one win, 10 top fives and 16 top 10s.

He also drove 29 of the 33 Xfinity races in ’20 for Our, with one top five and seven top 10s.

The move gives Niece a past champion in the series; Moffitt won the 2018 title.
