Kaz Grala is back with a familiar team in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, partnering up with Sam Hunt Racing for three races this season, the team announced June 18.
Grala will be behind the wheel of the No. 24 Toyota GR Supra for three road course races, including the Chicago street course, Watkins Glen International and the Charlotte Motor Speedway ROVAL.
Grala previously raced for the organization on a full-time basis in the 2023 Xfinity season, finishing 17th in points while scoring two top fives and nine top-10 finishes.
“I can’t wait to finally suit back up, especially with my friends at Sam Hunt Racing,” Grala said in a team release. “We had a lot of success together in 2023, and with the growth they’ve had since then, I have confidence that we’ll be able to contend up front each time we hit the track.
“I’m looking forward to what we are all able to accomplish together, and I can’t think of a better place to get started than the streets of Chicago.”
Grala’s most recent NASCAR experience came in 2024, when he ran 24 NASCAR Cup Series events for Rick Ware Racing and Front Row Motorsports.
In 77 career Xfinity starts since 2018, he boasts seven top fives and 19 top 10s.
