Ram<\/a> has confirmed that Kaulig Racing<\/a> will become the anchor factory team for the truck maker\u2019s anticipated return to NASCAR, starting with the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series<\/a> in 2026.<\/p>\n

Kaulig Racing, founded a decade ago by Matt Kaulig<\/a>, is poised to field up to five Ram 1500 trucks in next year\u2019s NASCAR\u2019s Craftsman Truck series, starting with the season kick-off race at Daytona International Speedway on February 13. The race will mark the first time a factory-supported team will carry the Ram badge in a NASCAR race since 2012.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership represents far more than a new chapter in Kaulig Racing\u2019s history, it\u2019s a union of shared values,\u201d said Matt Kaulig, owner of Kaulig Racing.<\/p>\n

\u201cOver the past decade, our team has built a legacy rooted in performance, integrity and giving back to the community. To now join forces as the anchor team for Ram\u2019s return to NASCAR is both an honor and a responsibility. Together, we\u2019re ready to set a new standard on race day and in the impact we make off the track.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kaulig Racing currently fields two chartered entries in the NASCAR Cup Series<\/a> and three teams in the NASCAR Xfinity Series<\/a>, scoring 29 race wins over the last seven seasons across the two series.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe needed a partner that truly aligns with the Ram brand and embraces our unconventional approach to NASCAR,\u201d said Tim Kuniskis<\/a>, Ram Trucks CEO. \u201cWith Kaulig Racing, we found the perfect synergy to drive our \u2019Last Tenth\u2019 culture forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

As Kaulig Racing continues to build its Craftsman Truck Series teams for the 2026 season, the driver line-up for its inaugural season in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud of what the men and women of Kaulig Racing have accomplished over the past decade,\u201d added Kaulig Racing president Chris Rice. \u201cSpecial thanks to Ty Norris<\/a> (Kaulig chief business officer) for his dedication to Kaulig Racing and helping get us to the next level.\u201d<\/p>\n
