Front Row Motorsports will have three chartered cars in the NASCAR Cup Series next year, it was announced Wednesday.
Two cars — Ford Mustang Dark Horses driven by Michael McDowell and Todd Gilliland — are currently being operated by the organization, which has used a third car in previous Cup Series events but hasn’t had three full-time slots since 2015.
Announcements regarding next year’s driver lineup will be made at a later date.
“It is good to get the news out now as we have a lot of work to do to prepare a new team,” Front Row Motorsports general manager Jerry Freeze said in a statement. “All of us on the leadership team will be working through that, obtaining the parts and pieces needed for the new team. And, most importantly, adding to the dedicated and talented staff and culture that exists today within our organization.”
Front Row began its Cup Series tenure as a part-time entry in 2005 before upgrading to a full-time entry in 2009.
