Nathan Byrd, a fourth-generation race car driver, will make his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut at Portland International Raceway. Byrd is slated to pilot the No. 92 Chevrolet Camaro for DGM Racing with primary sponsorship from CleanCore Solutions, Inc.
“We’re always proud to welcome new companies to the sport, but this time we have the honor of welcoming a new driver as well,” Mario Gosselin, DGM Racing’s team owner said. “Nathan has a very impressive track record, and we look forward to adding another type of car to his extensive resume and teaching him the ropes of NASCAR as he embarks on the next step in his career.”
Born in 2000, Byrd, an native of Arizona, has competed in hundreds of races in a wide array of vehicles. Byrd began his racing career in 2018. Prior to diving into the racing world, Byrd was a janitor and cleaner for his family’s hotels.
“I’m ecstatic to have CleanCore Solutions on board with me and DGM for my NASCAR debut,” Byrd stated. “It means the world to have their support and partnershop not only on the motorsports front, but the family business front as well. Their all-in-one multi-purpose cleaning product is revolutionary and something I wish I had my hands on during my days of janitor and housekeeping work at the family’s hotels. I couldn’t be more thrilled for this opportunity, and I’m looking forward to making the CleanCore and DGM teams proud.”
CleanCore, according to a press release, has developed a patented aqueous ozone technology… While I don’t understand many of those words, the end result is a product that works as an all-purpose cleaner. The company is excited to break into the world of NASCAR in a partnership with Byrd.
“CleanCore brings a fresh approach to hospitality cleaning with aqueous ozone, and Nathan Byrd brings a fresh face to NASCAR. Together we’re redefining standards and leaving a lasting impression,” said Doug Moore, Chief Executive Officer of CleanCore. “As Byrdman gears up for his NASCAR debut, CleanCore stands beside him, just as we stand by our commitment to sustainable cleaning solutions for the hospitality industry. It’s a race towards a cleaner, greener future.”
The NASCAR Xfinity Series Pacific Office Automation 147 at Portland International Raceway is set for Saturday, June 1. The race will go live on FS1 at 4:30 PM ET.
