Rackley W.A.R. announced today that Ty Dillon

will take over the No. 25 Rackley Roofing Company and W.A.R. Shocks Chevrolet

Silverado full-time in the 2024 NASCAR CRAFTSMAN® Truck Series (NCTS), beginning

with the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway in February.

“We are excited to announce Ty Dillon as the driver for Rackley W.A.R. in the NASCAR

Truck Series.” President and Chief Operating Officer Willie Allen said. “Ty’s exceptional talent

is a perfect fit for our team as we elevate our engineering and technological capabilities to

new heights.”

In just its third season, the organization made its first playoff appearance in 2023, scoring 13

top 10s and ending the year ninth in owner points.

“We’re investing in cutting-edge technology and innovative engineering to ensure Ty has one

the most competitive trucks on the track,” Allen continued. “This season marks a new

chapter for our team. We’re ready to showcase our progress and for a championship run. We

look forward to making this season the new benchmark in our racing history.”

As part of the agreement with Dillon, it was also announced that Rackley Roofing Company,

Inc. is returning to the team as a primary sponsor and has committed to 16 races for the 2024

race season. New partners will be announced as those conversations continue and new

opportunities develop.

“Racing in the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN® Truck Series is extremely competitive. Over these last

three years, we have learned a ton of what to do and what not to do,” Rackley W.A.R. Chief

Executive Officer Curtis Sutton said. “I believe we have put a team together with Ty Dillon

behind the wheel of the No. 25 Chevrolet Silverado, where great things are in store in 2024 for

this team, our sponsors and everyone who supports this organization, including Chevrolet

Motorsports.”

The 2024 season marks Dillon’s first racing full-time in the Truck Series since 2013 when he

finished runner-up in the championship standings.

“I’m excited to go back to the Truck Series and compete in the series that got it all started for

me,” Dillon said. “I have a lot of good memories from earlier in my career with winning races and

poles, and our goal is to create more this season. Rackley W.A.R. has built a solid foundation

and it’s an honor to be a part of taking them to the winning level they want to be at. I’m very

appreciative of this opportunity and ready to get started in Daytona.”

The 31-year-old made his Truck Series debut in 2011 at Kentucky Speedway with an 18th-

place finish. In two other starts that year, he finished third and sixth at Texas Motor Speedway

and Homestead-Miami Speedway. In that same season, Dillon raced full-time in the ARCA

Menards Series, winning seven times ahead of winning the championship by 340 points over

Chris Buescher.

The following year, he moved full-time to the Truck Series where he finished an impressive

ninth in the season-opening race at Daytona International Speedway. In his first full-time season

in the series, Dillon scored seven top fives and 17 top 10s, including a win at Atlanta Motor

Speedway where he started on the pole. He ended up fourth in the championship standings and

took home Rookie of the Year honors in 2012.

In the time since he last raced full-time in the series, Dillon made a combined 402 starts in

the NASCAR Xfinity and Cup series.

In the Xfinity Series, Dillon compiled 34 top fives and 92 top 10s, including a victory at

Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 2014. He snagged a career-best third-place result in the

championship standings in 2015. Meanwhile, on the Cup Series side, he holds two stage wins

and seven top 10s, including a career-high third place run at Talladega Superspeedway in

2020.

In a combined 58 Truck Series starts, including two full-time seasons before moving to

the Xfinity Series, Dillon boasts three wins, 20 top fives and 36 top 10s.

The NCTS makes its 2024 debut at Daytona International Speedway for the NextEra

Energy 250 on Friday, Feb. 16 at 7:30 p.m. EST and will be broadcast live on FS1.
