Stenhouse Jr. also talked about attending the Supercross event with his busy schedule during an interview with 23XI Racing's Riley Herbst at the stadium.

"First time in Anaheim. I tried to make the A1, my schedule didn't work out but definitely glad to be here," Stenhouse Jr. said.

Stenhouse Jr. finished the last season in 25th place with three top fives and six top 10 finishes, with one win at Talladega. He will return to the Cup Series for his 13th full-time season at the Clash at Bowman Gray in the No. 47 Chevrolet next week.

Stenhouse Jr. debuted in the Cup Series in 2011 and joined Roush Fenway Racing the following year, where he ran for seven full-time seasons but was replaced by Chris Buescher. The Memphis, Tennessee native then moved to JTG Daugherty Racing, which rebranded to Hyak Motorsports this year, in the No. 47 car.

Stenhouse Jr. has collected four wins and 60 top-10 finishes in the series so far.

"SunnyD has been a longtime supporter of mine throughout my career. We’ve become family. I’m looking forward to continuing that relationship at Hyak Motorsports and trying to get them in victory lane this year," Stenhouse said in a statement.

Stenhouse Jr. will have Hungry Jack as a sponsor for a race in Atlanta. The season will begin with the exhibition race, Cook Out Clash on February 2 and the first points race, Daytona 500 on February 16.
