Tony Stewart Returns To NASCAR At Daytona With Kaulig Racing Ram Truck

  • Next month, Tony Stewart, three-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and NASCAR Hall of Famer, will drive Kaulig Racing's Ram Trucks entry in the Craftsman Truck Series opener at Daytona International Speedway.
  • As part of Kaulig Racing's Free Agent Driver Program, Stewart was tapped to spotlight proven drivers while Ram fields five trucks in 2026, including a free agent seat and Race For The Seat competition.
  • A veteran of multiple disciplines, Stewart ran six Truck Series races with two wins at Richmond and earned four summertime 400-mile Cup victories at Daytona.
  • Team owner Matt Kaulig said bringing Stewart in a Ram truck generates excitement as they roll into Daytona for their first race, while Stewart's Dodge-backed NHRA involvement made this a natural brand re-entry.
  • On Jan. 25 the reality show 'Race for the Seat' debuts on Fox, and the winner will be announced before NASCAR's Speedweek begins Feb. 11, with Kaulig naming weekly drivers.
