Kyle ready to keep on truckin’ with new sponsor

Kyle Busch announced which five races he will run during the 2023 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule while also welcoming a new sponsor to Kyle Busch Motorsports.

Busch will pilot the No. 51 Chevrolet Silverado at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (March 3), Circuit of The Americas (March 25), Martinsville Speedway (April 14), Kansas Speedway (May 6) and Pocono Raceway (July 22).

Zariz Transport joins as a primary sponsor for all five of Busch’s KBM entries this season and beyond as part of a multiyear deal, according to a team release. The company, which is an intermodal drayage company that specializes in transporting containers from ports, will also serve as an associate sponsor for the 18 remaining races for the No. 51 team. Jack Wood will pilot the entry in at least 10 races, the team announced earlier.

Zariz also reached a multiyear renewal to be the presenting sponsor of The Samantha and Kyle Busch Bundle of Joy Fund annual gala.

“I’m really excited to have Zariz as the primary sponsor on my No. 51 Silverado for my five races in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in the coming years,” Busch said in a team release. “Samantha and I were introduced to Zariz through our foundation and immediately developed a great connection with them, and we are honored that not only have they committed to the Truck Series sponsorship for multiple years, but they’ll also continue being the presenting sponsor of our Bundle of Joy Fund gala.

“We feel that introducing them to NASCAR consumers and people within the industry on the national stage through the Craftsman Truck Series makes perfect sense given the nature of their business and I can’t wait to make them a part of KBM’S winning tradition.”
