Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport has acquired the driving talents of NASCAR up-and-comer Rajah Caruth for 10 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series events in 2026, the team announced Thursday.
Caruth will take on a significant portion of the driving duties in the team’s No. 32 Chevrolet, a newly-upgraded third full-time entry that will be filled with a rotating cast of characters, including team owner Jordan Anderson.
A native of Washington, D.C., Caruth returns to the Jordan Anderson Racing stable after making a pair of NASCAR Xfinity (O’Reilly Auto Parts) Series for the team in 2025 at Dover Motor Speedway and Daytona International Speedway.
“We’ve enjoyed getting to know Rajah and watching him continue to grow each year as a driver,” said Anderson. “He brings great energy to our group and works well with everyone here. We’re excited to have him back in our Chevrolets and to play a key role in helping him run the full season and chase a championship.”
After spending the last three seasons competing in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series for teams like GMS Racing and Spire Motorsports, Caruth will finally graduate full-time to the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series – splitting his time between Jordan Anderson Racing and JR Motorsports.
Between the two Chevrolet-backed organizations, Caruth will have the opportunity to compete for a post-season berth and championship in 2026, running 23 events in the No. 88 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet for JR Motorsports, and another 10 in the No. 32 Chevrolet for Jordan Anderson Racing.
A full schedule of events for Caruth at Jordan Anderson Racing (or at JR Motorsports for that matter) has yet to be released.
Throughout his career in NASCAR’s National Series, Caruth has made 22 starts in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, driving for teams like Alpha Prime Racing, Hendrick Motorsports (twice), and Jordan Anderson Racing, where the 23-year-old driver has a career-best finish of 12th on two occasions, both times at Martinsville Speedway (in back-to-back seasons with Alpha Prime Racing).
The 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series campaign begins on Saturday, February 14, 2026, at 5:30 PM ET on The CW, with the season-opening race at Daytona International Speedway.
