While not behind the wheel of Sam Hunt Racing’s No. 26 this season, Garrett has served as an interior mechanic for the single-car organization.
Talladega will mark Garrett’s eighth NASCAR Xfinity Series start and his seventh for Sam Hunt Racing, highlighted by a 14th-place result at Homestead-Miami Speedway last June. Over the last two seasons, Garrett has accumulated two top-20s and four top-25 finishes.
Entering the series’ eighth race of the season, Sam Hunt Racing’s No. 26 Toyota Supra currently sits 18th in Xfinity Series Owner Points, the result of six top-20 finishes in the first seven races of the season at the hands of Brandon Gdovic, Kris Wright and Santino Ferrucci.
