[autotag]Trackhouse Racing[/autotag] announced on Monday morning that [autotag]Matt Swiderski[/autotag] will serve as the new chief for Daniel Suarez and the No. 99 team starting in 2024. Swiderski replaces Travis Mack, who ironically replaced him at the No. 16 team at Kaulig Racing. Unlike Mack, he will not take a role as the technical director for Trackhouse Racing.
The former Kaulig Racing crew chief spent the last two seasons as the crew chief for the No. 16 team and won his first career Cup Series race with Allmendinger at the Charlotte ROVAL in 2023. Before his Cup Series tenure, Swiderski’s biggest role was as Ty Dillon’s crew chief in the NASCAR Xfinity Series during the 2017 season.

The 42-year-old crew chief has spent nearly 20 years in NASCAR and served as Kaulig Racing’s competition director as well. Swiderski represents a fresh start for Suarez, who struggled during the 2023 season and failed to win an event. Trackhouse Racing hopes that Suarez and Swiderski immediately develop chemistry and compete for victories.
