Ty Dillon shared his thoughts on joining Kaulig Racing

Over the course of his career in NASCAR, Ty Dillon has had 244 Cup Series starts, and raced full-time for six seasons between 2017 and 2023. During his 2017 to 2020 run, he raced for the now-defunct Germain Racing. Now, Dillon has been selected to race the newly acquired #10 for Kaulig Racing full-time next season.

When the news was announced in September this year, Dillon said (via NASCAR.com):

“I am incredibly grateful for another opportunity to run full-time in the Cup Series, and to be able to do it with the men and women at Kaulig Racing means a lot to me personally. They gave me a chance this year to go out and prove myself in a handful of starts. The team and I were able to connect early on, and we put together a few strong runs in the No. 16. I’m really looking forward to what 2025 brings with this team. We have a bright future ahead of us and we’re going to give it our all each and every race next season.”

Ty Dillon will race his first race for Kaulig on his return to a full-time season at the Cup Series level at the first points race in Daytona in February.
