MOORESVILLE, N.C. (July 6, 2023) -- Today JR Motorsports co-owner Dale Earnhardt Jr. unveiled the much-anticipated second of two NXS races in which he'll drive for JRM.
Having run at least one race for his team in the past several seasons, the two-time NASCAR Xfinity Series champion will do a double feature this season, adding the Oct. 21 event at Homestead-Miami Speedway to his already-announced appearance in the Bristol Night Race on Sept. 15.
At Bristol, Dale Jr. will drive the No. 88 Hellmann's Chevrolet at Bristol, one of his favorite tracks and under the lights. This event, set to begin at 7 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 15 via the USA Network, continues a streak of at least one race with Hellmann's backing each year since 2009. This year's scheme, announced in May at JRM's annual Fan Day, will feature the iconic blue and yellow Hellmann's scheme on the No. 88.
At Homestead-Miami Speedway, Earnhardt Jr. will campaign the No. 88 Bass Pro Shops/TRACKER Boats & ATVs Chevrolet, marking his first NXS appearance in the iconic Bass Pro Shops livery for JRM. The race is scheduled for 3 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 21 and will be broadcast on NBC.
