Kenny Wallace praised Kaulig Racing for building a pipeline to their Truck Series team with a Dana White-Produced Reality TV Series, Race for the Seat. The brand new show pits 15 drivers against each other for a full-time drive in the RAM-powered outfit.
Wallace used to drive for Roush Racing in 2005. The same year, the storied team aired a reality series on the Discovery Channel named Driver X, where team owner Jack Roush auditioned drivers for a full-time seat in his Truck Series program. The show had its roots in the team’s first-ever driver audition in 1985, informally called The Gong Show.
The competition birthed many notable talents like Cup Series champion Kurt Busch, Carl Edwards and David Ragan. Kaulig Racing has developed a similar offshoot of the model, as NASCAR analyst Bob Pockrass shared the news with an X post:
“This is how some of the great @RFKracing drivers were found🏁 Good work @KauligRacing 💯”
Mark Martin lauds Kaulig Racing’s partnership with historic engine manufacturer
“Pumped to partner with @Cummins this season. Excited to go chase some wins in the Cummins Ram #12. “
“Proud that @Cummins is still here in @NASCAR supporting this sport “
“Cummins has racing in its DNA. From Clessie Cummins’ winning the first Indianapolis 500 as a crew member to our leadership in commercial power, we’ve always pushed the limits of what’s possible. Brenden Queen represents that same spirit – talented, hardworking, and full of momentum. Partnering with both Kaulig Racing and Ram provides the opportunity for us to continue to write our motorsport legacy.”
