After two seasons in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series and a part-time campaign in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, Daniel Dye is graduating to the second-tier series full-time, beginning in 2025.

The 20-year-old driver will return to Kaulig Racing’s Xfinity Series program next season, piloting the No. 10 Chevrolet Camaro, the same entry the Deland, Florida native has piloted in his partial campaign this year.

“I’ve really enjoyed driving the Xfinity car this year, and I’m excited for the opportunity to continue working with Kaulig Racing in 2025,” said Daniel Dye. “It’s been a fun experience learning the car and trying to navigate the different feeling compared to the truck. I’m looking forward to finishing out the season, running for the Truck Championship and making the most of my remaining races in the No. 10.”

Dye is currently in his second season as a full-time competitor in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, where he pilots the No. 43 Chevrolet Silverado for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing. 

On the strength of a single top-five finish at Nashville Superspeedway and a career-high six top-10 finishes, Dye has qualified for the NASCAR Truck Series Playoffs, which will begin Sunday with the LiUNA! 175 at The Milwaukee Mile.

Since the end of last season, Dye has made sporadic appearances in the Xfinity Series, signing a 10-race deal to drive a fourth Kaulig Racing entry in 2024. Through seven starts with the team, Dye has a pair of top-10s at Iowa and Indianapolis and a 19.9 average finish.

“Daniel [Dye] has done a really great job for our team this season,” said team president Chris Rice. “He is invested in our program and putting in the time and effort to keep getting better. I’ve been able to spend a lot of time with him throughout the season, and we’re looking forward to having him with us full-time in 2025.”

Joining the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2016, Kaulig Racing has found a great deal of success in its nine-year tenure in the second-tier series, collecting 26 victories, 15 of which were courtesy of NASCAR veteran AJ Allmendinger, who will run full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series for the team in 2025.

Sponsorship and personnel announcements will be made by Kaulig Racing at a later date.
