Justin Allgaier, who has been a staple in the NASCAR Xfinity Series as the driver of the No. 7 JR Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro since the 2016 season, will return to JR Motorsports after signing a multi-year contract extension which will keep him as the driver of the No. 7 car through the end of the 2026 season.
Along with Allgaier, longtime partner BRANDT Professional Agriculture will return as a 20-race primary sponsorship partner for Allgaier and the No. 7 team in 2025, and in 2026.
Allgaier, who is 10th all-time on the NASCAR Xfinity Series win list with 25 career victories, is still seeking his elusive first NASCAR Xfinity Series championship. While he’s in the thick of the battle of the 2024 Playoffs, Allgaier will have at least two more years to pull off a title run if it doesn’t happen this year.
“It feels great to be returning to JRM and to continue our partnership with BRANDT Professional Agriculture,” said Allgaier. “BRANDT has played such an integral part in my career and I am extremely proud of everything that we have accomplished thus far together. I’m honored to be able to continue to drive this No. 7 Chevrolet for Dale (Earnhardt Jr.) and Kelley and compete for race wins and championships. Hopefully we can get this renewal jump started on a strong note and finish off these playoffs in the best way possible.”
JR Motorsports is happy to secure Allgaier, who has meant so much to the organization’s success over the years, and BRANDT for two more seasons.
“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Justin, the Brandt family and everyone at BRANDT Professional Agriculture,“ said JRM CEO Kelley Earnhardt Miller. “BRANDT and Justin have become synonymous with JRM both on and off the track and Rick (Brandt)’s passion for this program remains unwavering. We are honored to continue to carry their brand. That No. 7 team has consistently been one of the strongest teams in the garage year after year, and I know that that is going to continue moving forward.”
The bright red BRANDT colors have been synonymous with Allgaier’s race cars for a decade now, and the company is elated for more.
“On behalf of everyone at Team BRANDT, we are beyond happy to extend our decade-long partnership with Justin and JR Motorsports for the next two seasons,” said Rick Brandt, President and CEO of BRANDT. “Our philosophy has always been to win in the field and on the track, and this partnership has helped us do just that. But before we start looking ahead to next year, there’s still one thing left to do this year: Let’s go win that 2024 championship.”
Allgaier, 38, has two wins this season in the NASCAR Xfinity Series season and is one of eight drivers still vying for the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series championship in the Round of 8 of the Playoffs.
