Joey Gase Motorsports with Scott Osteen has tapped ARCA Menards Series winner Greg Van Alst to compete in a majority of the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series campaign, beginning with the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway.

The 43-year-old driver will pilot the No. 35 Chevrolet Camaro as part of an already-announced two-car effort for the team based out of Mooresville, North Carolina.

“I am thrilled about this opportunity to compete in most of the NASCAR Xfinity Series season with Joey Gase Motorsports with Scott Osteen,” said Van Alst. “This is an essential step in my racing career, and with a tunneled vision focused on the Xfinity Series, I believe I can step up to the plate and not only be competitive but also produce some strong finishes that can propel our team into the spotlight.”

“I’m ready to get to work and make the most out of the opportunity to make my NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at Daytona in about two months.”

Van Alst, an ARCA Menards Series winner at Daytona International Speedway, made his Xfinity Series debut with Alpha Prime Racing in 2023 at Atlanta Motor Speedway and New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

This past season, the Anderson, Indiana-native directed his focus to the ARCA Menards Series, while also working a five-race deal with SS-GreenLight Racing in the second-tier series, earning his career-best result of 26th at Martinsville.

Earlier this month, team co-owner Joey Gase confirmed that his family-owned team had added additional investment support from entrepreneur Scott Osteen.

“Scott Osteen, myself, and our entire Joey Gase Motorsports team are extremely excited to have Greg and his partner be a part of our team in 2025,” offered Gase. “It’s crazy how things happen and work out sometimes. Greg was in our shop in 2022 when our team started pulling down his ARCA car. Whoever thought he would be driving for us a few years down the road, plus we both have good taste in car numbers.”

“We became good friends at the track the last few years in the Xfinity garage. We would throw questions at each other and race each other with respect on the track. Now, we’re joining forces with one mission. I’m looking forward to getting started at Daytona.”

Van Alst’s No. 35 Chevrolet will carry continued support from Anderson, Indiana-based CB Fabricating.

“I am excited about this new partnership with Greg and the Joey Gase Motorsports with Scott Osteen team, said Chris Barkdull, owner of CB Fabricating. “This is the next chapter of Greg’s and I’s relationship, and we look forward to making some great memories in the NASCAR Xfinity Series during the 2025 season.”

“None of this would have been possible without the support of Chris (Barkdull) and CB Fabrication,” he added. “Chris has been there through the highs and lows of my racing career that reignited back in 2021. To have his blessing and overwhelming support to make this major leap towards more racing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series is incredibly important to me and something I will never forget.”

Van Alst and Joey Gase Motorsports will debut their partnership in the season-opener at Daytona International Speedway on Saturday, February 15.
