TopLiner, the innovative and high-performance truck bedliner pioneer, will be supporting Adam Andretti in a major way this season as he dabbles across multiple motorsports disciplines, including Trans Am and the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.
Andretti is the younger brother of NASCAR Cup Series race-winner John Andretti, and the nephew of Indianapolis 500 champion Mario Andretti.
The 46-year-old driver will compete for the championship in the Trans AM Series presented by Pirelli TA Class, where he finished second in the championship last season after capturing a victory at Barber Motorsports Park and securing nine top-fives in 11 starts.
In addition to his return bid for a championship with Burtin Racing in the Trans Am TA Class, Andretti will also be partnering with TRICON Garage and TopLiner for a four-race NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series campaign.
“Last year we showed what we’re capable of,” said Andretti. “The speed is there, the preparation is there, and the belief is there. This year, we’re focused on consistency, execution, and putting ourselves in position to fight for a championship from the very first green flag.”
TopLiner will begin its campaign with TRICON Garage in Friday’s Fresh From Florida 250 at Daytona International Speedway, serving as the primary sponsor of the No. 1 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro, driven by NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series driver Taylor Gray.
The following weekend, at EchoPark Speedway (formerly Atlanta Motor Speedway), Andretti will make his NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut, piloting the No. 5 TopLiner Toyota Tundra TRD Pro.
Andretti will then return for three additional events on the Streets of St. Petersburg (February 28), Watkins Glen International (May 8), and Naval Base Coronado (June 19). Of note, the Brownsburg, Indiana-native’s Truck Series event at St. Pete will require travel back-and-forth between the Trans Am season-opener at Sebring International Raceway.
“I am beyond blessed to be able to make my first-ever NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series start at EchoPark Speedway in Atlanta for TopLiner and TRICON Garage,” said Andretti. “I want to thank everyone involved for making this such a special debut. The combination of the Andretti legacy, the brilliance of TopLiner spray-in bed liner product, and TRICON Garage’s winning track record should make this a can’t-miss race for fans of ours worldwide.”
