Marco Andretti, who has spent the 2024 season piloting Chevrolets will swap to a Toyota Camry for his final ARCA start of the year. Andretti, 37, will run the No. 25 Venturini Motorsports entry in the ARCA Menards Series West season finale at Phoenix Raceway in a couple of weeks. Andretti will carry primary sponsorship in the event from Rich Mar Florist.

Andretti and Venturini Motorsports revealed the paint scheme that Andretti will pilot in the event.

Venturini Motorsports is excited to have the iconic Andretti name sliding behind the wheel of one of its race cars.

“Deep down all of us in the sport are fans at heart, so the purist in me just loves the fact that Marco Andretti is driving a car for Venturini Motorsports,” said VMS’s General Manager, Billy Venturini in a team press release.

Andretti, who has competed in 13 ARCA races this season between the ARCA Menards Series, ARCA Menards Series East, and ARCA Menards Series West, is grateful to add one more start to his tally before the season is officially over.

“It’s great to be able to add another ARCA race before the end of the year,” Andretti said. “Thank you to Venturini for the opportunity to add more stock car experience to my 2024 season. I am also grateful for the support from Rich Mar and their idea of a special livery tribute to my newborn daughter Miura. Phoenix is a fun track and this will be my third race in a stock car there so I’m hoping to end the year with a great result.”

Andretti, a two-time NTT IndyCar Series race winner and 2023 SRX Racing Series champion, has a best finish of fifth this season in ARCA competition, which came in the ARCA Menards Series Zinsser SmartCoat 150 at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

Prior to the upcoming start at Phoenix Raceway, the Pennsylvania native had run all of his ARCA events under the Cook Racing Technologies banner. Venturini Motorsports hints that the relationship with Andretti could extend past the 2024 ARCA West season finale.

“We’re using this last ARCA platform race in 2024 as our debut, but hope there’s lots of runway to grow into a successful 2025 season together as well,” Billy Venturini added in the release.

In addition to his ARCA starts this season, Andretti has been competing part-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for the No. 04 Roper Racing Team. It’s been tough-sledding for Andretti in the NASCAR Truck ranks as he has a best finish of 25th this season, and he has had two DNFs in his five starts this season.

The final race of the 2024 ARCA Menards Series West season, the Desert Diamond Casino West Valley 100 at Phoenix Raceway is set for Friday, November 8. That race will be broadcast live on FloRacing, a subscription-based streaming service beginning at 1:30 PM ET. For those unable to tune in on TV, the Motor Racing Network (MRN) will carry the radio broadcast of the event.
