[autotag]Joe Gibbs Racing[/autotag] has announced its NASCAR Xfinity Series driver lineup for the 2024 season, and it is absolutely stacked. Sheldon Creed and Chandler Smith will drive full-time for the organization in the No. 18 car and No. 81 car, respectively. Meanwhile, Ryan Truex, William Sawalich, Taylor Gray, and Joe Graf Jr. will pilot the No. 19 All-Star car.
However, that is not the only All-Star car for Joe Gibbs Racing. The NASCAR team will have a fourth full-time that Aric Almirola and John Hunter Nemechek will primarily drive. Both drivers go opposite directions as Almirola moves down to the Xfinity Series while Nemechek moves to the Cup Series full-time with Legacy Motor Club in 2024.
A new era.
Our 2024 Xfinity team will field four Toyota GR Supras – two with full-time drivers and two with a rotating schedule of part-time drivers.
The lineup will be headlined by Sheldon Creed driving the No. 18 GR Supra and Chandler Smith piloting the No. 81 GR Supra.… pic.twitter.com/CRfzefPC9Q

This is a great series of moves for Joe Gibbs Racing as they establish themselves as the clear frontrunners for the 2024 Xfinity Series season. There are four cars with amazing talent that win every week, which should be scary for the rest of the field. If Creed and Smith take the next step with Almirola in the No. 20 car, it could be the year of Joe Gibbs Racing.
