Daniel Dye joins Kaulig Racing full-time in NASCAR Xfinity Series for 2025

Kaulig Racing announces that Daniel Dye will drive full-time in the No. 10 car during the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series season.

[autotag]Kaulig Racing[/autotag] has revealed a new full-time driver for the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series season. On Friday afternoon, Kaulig Racing announced that [autotag]Daniel Dye[/autotag] will drive the No. 10 Xfinity car full-time in 2025. Dye, who currently runs full-time for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing in the NASCAR Truck Series, has made select starts for Kaulig Racing in the Xfinity Series.

The driver of the No. 43 truck for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing has made seven Xfinity Series starts for Kaulig Racing and has two top-10 finishes with a 19.9 average finishing position. Dye has a best finish of seventh place at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 2024. In the Truck Series, he made the 2024 playoffs with his teammates Christian Eckes and Tyler Ankrum.

Dye hasn’t won in any of NASCAR’s top 3 levels despite having 48 starts since the start of the 2023 season. Kaulig Racing will have Dye and Josh Williams in its driver lineup, with the No. 16 car “to be announced” as A.J. Allmendinger returns to the NASCAR Cup Series. Dye has earned an opportunity in the Xfinity Series, and Kaulig Racing is an ideal spot.

Daniel Dye joins Kaulig Racing part-time for 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series season

Kaulig Racing announced on Tuesday morning that Daniel Dye will drive the No. 10 Xfinity car for select races in 2024.

[autotag]Kaulig Racing[/autotag] announced on Tuesday morning that [autotag]Daniel Dye[/autotag] will drive the No. 10 Xfinity car in select races during the 2024 NASCAR season. Dye will compete in 10 Xfinity Series events starting at Daytona International Speedway. The No. 10 car is expected to be a part-time entry as the organization fields three full-time cars in 2024.

This is undoubtedly the best equipment Dye has ever received in his short time in NASCAR. The 20-year-old driver was full-time with GMS Racing in the NASCAR Truck Series last season but moved to McAnally-Hilgemann Racing following his former team’s closure. In the Xfinity Series, Dye ran two races with Alpha Prime Racing in 2023.

It is a great move for Dye and Kaulig Racing as they look at their possible future together. Kaulig Racing has A.J. Allmendinger and Shane van Gisbergen as full-time Xfinity Series drivers, and they likely won’t stick around for too much longer. If everything goes right, Dye’s partnership with Kaulig Racing could go beyond 10 races in the future.

Daniel Dye to join McAnally-Hilgemann Racing for 2024 NASCAR season

McAnally-Hilgemann Racing announced on Wednesday afternoon that Daniel Dye will join the organization on a full-time basis starting in 2024.

[autotag]McAnally-Hilgemann Racing[/autotag] teased an announcement was coming early on Wednesday and it lived up to the hype. The organization announced that [autotag]Daniel Dye[/autotag] will drive the No. 43 truck on a full-time basis starting in 2024 at Daytona International Speedway. Dye, 19, will join the team after GMS Racing announced it would cease operations at the end of the year.

The 19-year-old driver missed the 2023 playoffs and has yet to record a top-10 finish this year. Dye’s best finish was 11th place at World Wide Technlogy Raceway during the summer months. He hopes to have a breakout season with McAnally-Hilgemann Racing as the organization has improved its performance compared to last season with Christian Eckes and Jake Garcia.

Dye will bring the No. 43 from GMS Racing to McAnally-Hilgemann Racing as it has been his number since competing in the ARCA Menards Series. Now, only two GMS Racing drivers, Grant Enfinger and Rajah Caruth, in the Truck Series need a ride before the 2024 NASCAR season Daytona.
