Spire Motorsports announced Wednesday that Trackhouse Racing owner Justin Marks would be joining the team to drive their No. 77 truck in the Craftsman Truck Series race at San Diego.

JOCKEY will sponsor the team owner’s first start in a truck since July of 2022.

“It’s a unique opportunity to drive in the inaugural Truck Series race at San Diego Naval Base,” said Marks. “I enjoy getting behind the wheel every once in a while, and I’m thankful to do it with Spire’s help and with a longtime partner like Jockey. They are celebrating their 150th anniversary and are very supportive of our military which makes this endeavor even more special. There is a lot of excitement surrounding the upcoming race weekend and it’s an honor to be part of it.”

Spire Motorsports and Trackhouse have been building on this partnership throughout the season, where so far Connor Zilisch and Shane van Gisbergen have ran races in Spire trucks.

“Our relationship with Justin goes back a long way, from his time coming up through the sport, so it means a great deal to have him in Spire Motorsports’ No. 77 Chevy Silverado for this race,” said Spire Motorsports President Bill Anthony. “We know how important this event is for Justin and Jockey, and we’re proud to support that opportunity while recognizing the tremendous impact Justin continues to have as one of NASCAR’s best advocates and forward-thinking leaders.”
