I feel like I can apply what we have learned this season, paired with my previous experience and look to have a good finish.”

Practice for the Toyota 200 is set for Friday, June 2nd at 6:05 PM ET and will be followed by qualifying at 6:35 PM ET.

Sanchez Throws It Back to a Legend at Darlington Raceway 

May 11, 2023

Concord, NC- As part of NASCAR’s “Throwback Weekend” at Darlington Raceway, Rev Racing’s Nick Sanchez will honor racing legend Mario Andretti at the Buckle Up South Carolina 200 this Friday (5.12). 

With primary sponsorship from Gainbridge, Sanchez’s No. 2 Chevrolet will run the Andretti scheme, which found its way to Victory Lane in the 1967 Daytona 500. To date, Andretti remains the only driver to win an Indianapolis 500, Daytona 500 and the Formula One Championship. 

Andretti will also join Sanchez and Rev Racing in Darlington to see the Holman-Moody paint scheme on Sanchez’s Chevy Silverado.

He has also led the most laps to-date in the NCTS 2023 season at 187. Sanchez hopes to recreate this victorious moment in history in honor of Andretti and Darlington’s Throwback Weekend. 

“The name Mario Andretti is synonymous with auto racing,” said Nick Sanchez. “To get to honor his legacy and his famous Daytona 500 win in 1967 is very special. The chance to meet a legend like Mario is also incredibly special. As a young driver, what he’s accomplished in motorsports is something I can only dream about for my future. Thanks to the Gainbridge and Rev Racing team for organizing this special throwback opportunity.”

Andretti is humbled and sincerely appreciative that Rev Racing and Gainbridge will honor and recognize a livery so important to his career. 

“I was full of pride when I learned that Gainbridge and Rev Racing were paying tribute to me this way,” said Andretti. “The effort they are going through to present this commemorative truck is flattering. Thank you to the team for that effort and also for acknowledging my part in NASCAR history. I look forward to seeing Nick carry the design from my 1967 car. I hope this winning paint scheme will be a good omen for him and that he’ll get a victory. “

Andretti and Sanchez will be doing a Live Q&A at the Goodyear Legend’s Display in the Fan Zone on May 12th starting at 5:00 PM ET, followed by a NASCAR Legends Autograph Session from 5:20 –  5:40 PM ET.

May 3, 2023

Concord, NC- After two weeks off, Rev Racing and Nick Sanchez are headed back to the track in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series (NCTS) for the Heart of America 200 at Kansas Speedway. Coming off of an 11th place finish at Martinsville Speedway, where the race ended early due to weather, Sanchez is ready to get back to action at one of his favorite tracks.

Reflecting on his hunger for a win, Sanchez stated “Our past couple races haven’t been our best performance, but I know we’re all looking to change those outcomes.” Sanchez, while leading the most laps of the season by far, has yet to secure a win. The rookie is determined to find the results he is looking for this weekend and bring Rev Racing their first victory in the NCTS.

The Heart of America 200 is scheduled for Saturday, May 6th during a double header with the AMS. The No.2 Gainbridge Chevrolet is set to take to the track around 8:00 PM ET.
