It will be the fourth NASCAR national series race Daly has competed in since 2020. Daly has two Camping World Truck Series starts on his resume when he ran at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in 2020 and ’21. Daly finished 18th in his debut. He also made an Xfinity Series start in 2018 at Road America driving for Jack Roush.
Mayweather’s new venture, The Money Team Racing, debuted this season. The organization has run three races with Kaz Grala piloting the car in the Daytona 500, Circuit of The Americas and Charlotte in the Coca-Cola 600.
