Kubota will continue to sponsor Trackhouse Racing’s NASCAR Cup Series teams through 2025, the team announced Sept. 28.
Both the Nos. 1 and 99, currently driven by Ross Chastain and Daniel Suarez, will carry Kubota’s colors.
“One of the awesome things about partnering with Kubota is they’re heavily involved in agriculture and it’s an authentic relationship,” Chastain said in a team release. “I feel at home when I’m meeting with employees and customers who are connected to Kubota and look forward to continuing our relationship.”
“It’s great to have a brand like Kubota supporting our race team,” Suarez added. “I think their continued partnership says a lot about them and Trackhouse Racing and how to build a successful relationship.”
Kubota will be featured on Trackhouse cars at seven tracks in 2024: Phoenix Raceway, Homestead-Miami Speedway, Kansas Speedway, New Hampshire Motor Speedway, Texas Motor Speedway, Sonoma Raceway and Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Chastain has one win, eight top fives and 11 top 10s in 2023, currently in contention for the Cup title. Suarez boasts three top fives and nine top 10s.
