Tony Stewart Running Daytona in Kaulig ‘Free Agent Truck’
For the first time since 2016, Tony Stewart will drive in NASCAR’s National Series.
The three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion will be competing in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season-opener at Daytona International Speedway (February 13), driving the No. 25 RAM 1500 for Kaulig Racing, an entry the team has dubbed its ‘Free Agent Truck’.
“I’ve raced just about everything with four wheels at Daytona, but never a truck. So when a seat in the new RAM was offered up for their first race back in NASCAR, I didn’t hesitate,” said Stewart. “RAM’s Free Agent Program is another great way for me to stay sharp and have a little fun.”
