Bommarito Automotive Group is set to continue its relationship with ThorSport Racing and two-time NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series champion Ben Rhodes in 2024, starting with Saturday’s Heart of America 200 at Kansas Speedway.
The brand’s black and neon red colors will be prominently displayed on the No. 99 Ford F-150 in at least three NASCAR Truck Series events in 2024, including Kansas and the brand’s home track of WWT Raceway.
“This is another awesome opportunity to partner with ThorSport Racing, bringing together the longest-running team in the NASCAR Truck Series and Missouri’s #1 Automotive Group,” said John Bommarito, CEO and President of Bommarito Automotive Group. “We’re excited to be on board again for three races this season in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series with driver Ben Rhodes piloting the No. 99.”
Bommarito Automotive Group is a major player in several different forms of motorsports, serving as the title sponsor for the NTT IndyCar Series event at WWT Raceway, sponsorship of the Vasser Sullivan Racing IMSA team for Lexus Racing, as well as balancing a NASCAR Xfinity Series effort with Jordan Anderson Racing.
“Bommarito’s involvement began back in 2015 with a small partnership with Worldwide Technology Raceway and Jordan Anderson Racing No. 3 in the Truck Series, which now has transformed into the No. 27 and No. 31 in the NASCAR Xfinity Series with Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport,” said Chuck Wallis, Vice President and General Manager, Bommarito Automotive Group. “We’re thrilled to be back with the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series and partnering with ThorSport for four races in 2024, with one being in our hometown at Worldwide Technology Raceway on June 1 with the No. 99 Bommarito Ford and driver, Ben Rhodes.”
After seven races, Ben Rhodes sits 12th in NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series point standings, carrying the weight of a difficult start to the campaign which has only seen the No. 99 finish inside the top-10 on one occasion, at Circuit of The Americas.
