RSS Racing will officially make a number swap between its No. 39 and 28 teams for the remainder of the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series season. Beginning with this weekend’s event at the Charlotte Motor Speedway ROVAL, Ryan Sieg will pilot the No. 28 while his brother Kyle Sieg will pilot the No. 39.

According to a social media post from the team, the change was necessitated as an effort to improve the owner points ranking for the No. 28 team ahead of the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series season.

Currently, the No. 28 RSS Racing Ford Mustang entry sits 29th in the NASCAR Xfinity Series owner standings, while the No. 39 entry is 14th.

The swap will simply be the renumbering of each car, the Sieg brothers will still drive the same chassis and have the same crew chief and pit crews that they’ve utilized all season long.

Why are the owner point standings ranking important for 2025? When it comes to qualifying provisional, the opening three races of the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series season will lean on the final 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series owner standings ranking for each car.

If the elder Sieg brother can climb the owner standings over the final five races of the 2024 season, it will better position the No. 28 RSS Racing entry to make the field in each of the opening three races of 2025, or it will give the team an asset, which will carry more value to potential teams interested in purchasing owner points for the opening three races of next season.

While Ryan Sieg failed to make it into the NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoffs, the Georgia native has recorded a pair of runner-up finishes this season, one at Texas Motor Speedway and one last weekend at Talladega Superspeedway.

With Sieg and the No. 39 team not in the running for the NASCAR driver or owner championship in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, it made the move a pretty easy one for RSS Racing to make.
