For a third consecutive season, Rolling Plains Construction will partner with NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Ryan Ellis, serving as a primary sponsor of the No. 71 Chevrolet at Phoenix Raceway in March.
The company has been a supporter of Ellis’ NASCAR Xfinity Series efforts since 2023, backing the 35-year-old driver in the Spring event at Phoenix Raceway in each of the last two seasons.
Ellis will look to build on his finishes of 19th and 21st at the one-mile facility the last two seasons with DGM Racing, who has claimed three top-15s and eight top-20s at the Avondale, Arizona short track.
“The Rolling Plains Construction team is pleased to announce our continued sponsorship of Ryan Ellis and the DGM Racing team at our home track for the third consecutive year,” said Robert Shippy, owner of Rolling Plains Construction. “We look forward to supporting the No. 71 Chevrolet and are confident in Ryan [Ellis] and the DGM Racing team’s ability to deliver an outstanding performance on the track. We can’t wait to cheer you on as you chase victory in Phoenix.”
Rolling Plains Construction is a distinguished national and global fireproofing contract, recognized for excellence in the industry. The company’s diverse project portfolio ranges from prominent sports venues like SoFi stadium to large-scale projects such as the Tesla Gigafactory in Texas and semiconductor facilities located in Isreal.
“Having the continued support of Rolling Plains Construction is really meaningful to me and my team,” Ryan Ellis shared. “They’ve been one of the sponsors that has been a core partner since joining us in 2023. We’re always really excited to see all of the exciting projects their team is working on and I always enjoy seeing so many of their team members while we’re out in Phoenix. I know they pride themselves heavily in the tremendous family-like environment they’ve created for their employees, and I know they’ll enjoy seeing that same feeling at DGM Racing. Phoenix is one of my favorite tracks on the NASCAR schedule, and I’ve always felt that it fits my driving style really well. In my last few races there, I feel like we’ve been plagued by little incidents that ultimately hindered our results, but I feel confident that we’ll be able to bring that No.71 Rolling Plains Chevy home with a finish this beautiful car deserves.”
Ellis enters his first season of competition with DGM Racing in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, piloting the No. 71. The Ashburn, Virginia-native is still in search of his first career top-10, having a career-best of 11th, twice, in 131 starts in the second-tier series.
