Trackhouse signs Truck champ Zane Smith to full-time Cup ride
Trackhouse Racing, co-owned by Justin Marks, announced that they have signed driver Zane Smith to a multi-year contract in the NASCAR Cup Series. As Trackhouse currently only has two charters, they will utilize a charter recently purchased from Spire Motorsports to run Smith in a third team. This acquisition of a charter from Live Fast Motorsports by Spire Motorsports for the 2024 season demonstrates their support for Trackhouse Racing. Smith expressed his excitement and gratitude, stating that being with Trackhouse is where he wants to be. Smith, who is 24 years old, has made seven Cup series starts and achieved a best finish of 10th in this year’s Coca-Cola 600 race. In his career in the Truck series, Smith has nine wins, including two this season, and 35 top-five and 57 top-10 finishes. He has also had 12 starts in the Xfinity Series, with a best finish of fifth.
