Jeffrey Earnhardt, who has competed in 15 NASCAR Xfinity Series events for Sam Hunt Racing since the 2022 season, will return to the organization in a part-time schedule driving the team’s No. 24 Toyota Supra.
Earnhardt, who will bring his longtime partner ForeverLawn for the commitment, will make his 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series debut for Sam Hunt Racing at Talladega Superspeedway on April 26. Earnhardt is elated to rejoin Sam Hunt Racing with ForeverLawn adorning his race cars.
“I’m very excited to have ForeverLawn back as a partner this year,” said Earnhardt. “They are family to me, and I know Sam and everyone on the team feels the same way. They continue to grow the company and launch incredible products in the synthetic turf world. After last season’s races with the Sam Hunt team and the speed they showed, it only made sense to run it back. I can’t express how thankful I am to be able to drive their cars. I’m grateful for the support Toyota has given SHR to grow as a team and to me to continue developing as a driver. We have several races on the calendar, and I look forward to the first race.”
Likewise, Sam Hunt Racing, SHR team owner, is pumped to have Earnhardt back behind the wheel of his race cars this season.
“I couldn’t be more excited to continue our relationship with Jeffrey and the ForeverLawn family throughout 2025,” said Hunt. “Jeffrey is the ultimate teammate and takes a lot of pride in the development of SHR, which means a ton to me. We also know he can deliver in our GR Supras, and will give him all the tools we can to be successful on the track. He has become like family to our staff, and everyone in the building wants to see him succeed. I’m so grateful to Dale and the entire Karmie family for recognizing our shared vision and alignment of core values between SHR and ForeverLawn. It’s going to be a fun year watching Jeffrey run up front.”
2025 will be the sixth season of partnership between Earnhardt and ForeverLawn.
“We are excited to be starting our sixth year as a sponsor and partner with Jeffrey Earnhardt,” says Dale Karmie, co-founder of ForeverLawn. “He is an incredible ambassador for our brand, not only in the way he races but also in how he engages with the fans. We are thrilled as well to be back with SHR for our third season. Sam and the team always bring fast cars to the track and are a great group of people to have as partners.”
The 35-year-old racer will announce his additional starts for Sam Hunt Racing at a later date.
Earnhardt, the grandson of the legendary Dale Earnhardt, Sr., has a career-best finish of second in NASCAR Xfinity Series competition, which he achieved in 2022 driving the No. 3 Richard Childress Racing entry. Earnhardt has a best finish of seventh, which came at Nashville Superspeedway in 2022, in Sam Hunt Racing equipment.
