Josh Williams Running Busch Light Clash, Select Cup Races in Kaulig No. 16
Josh Williams, who will contest a full-time NASCAR Xfinity Series season with Kaulig Racing in 2024, will run the Busch Light Clash at the LA Memorial Coliseum in the No. 16 Kaulig Racing NASCAR Cup Series entry.
Williams will also run select events during the regular season including the February 25 race at Atlanta Motor Speedway.
“Getting another opportunity in the Cup Series is humbling, especially with a team like Kaulig Racing,” Williams said. “I’ve been spending time in the sim with Team Chevy, and that’s been a huge help in getting comfortable and acclimated to the L.A. Coliseum. Short track racing is my background, and it doesn’t get much shorter than at The Clash. I’m ready for the challenge.”
