Michael Roberts Construction will sponsor Zane Smith in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, Front Row Motorsports announced Jan. 28.
The company will be on board the No. 38 Ford in six events, including Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Martinsville Speedway, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Sonoma Raceway, Kansas Speedway and the championship race at Phoenix Raceway.
“I want nothing more this year than to celebrate a championship with Mike and my friends at Michael Roberts Construction at Phoenix in November,” Smith said in a team release. “I think we can win a lot of races together and I love their schedule of primary races. And I know they are always supporting me every weekend, too. It feels good to have their support and I can’t wait to start the season.”
Smith finished runner up in the standings in his first two full-time Truck seasons. Last year he totaled one win, three top fives and 14 top 10s.
In total, the California native has three victories, 11 top fives and 28 top 10s in the Truck Series.
This is his first season with FRM in Trucks, after previously driving for GMS Racing the past two years. Todd Gilliland moved up to the Cup Series for the 2022 season.
