Anyone know if Smith has previous relations with Quick-Tie?

Lane Riggs and Chandler Smith driving for Front row are going to make a pretty big dent in the top 5's in the Truck series this year I'm betting.

That's some pretty big sponsorship news. Didn't expect Red Bull to return tbh.

I'm pretty sure it was announced Red Bull would sponsor SVG in the Cup series after he left Australia.

I read somewhere he's had an association with them for years.

At least Red Bull isn't trying to do it all themselves this time around. I don't recall what went wrong last time but that uncompetitive program imploded in a handful of years. We talk about drivers from other series having problems adapting to stock cars but it doesn't often happen with sponsors to that extent.

A solid Brian Vickers in 2009 and a Hendrick funded Kasey Kahne in 2011 were definitely the only highlights getting their only 2 wins at Michigan and Phoenix.

If he turns out to be as good as everyone says he is, Connor Zilisch and Red Bull are going to sell many hats and t shirts. Awesome they're back and aligned with that kid. Props to Trackhouse for acquiring that sponsorship, thats a pretty big get. Project 91: Max Verstappen
