with JR Motorsports
Ross Chastain and Shane van Gisbergen will combine to compete in nine NASCAR Xfinity Series races for JR Motorsports in 2025, Trackhouse Racing announced Thursday.
The pair of Trackhouse teammates in the NASCAR Cup Series will dip their toes back into the Xfinity pool, where Chastain will compete in four events and SVG will race in five.
Chastain, a two-time winner in Xfinity competition, will pilot the No. 9 Chevrolet for JRM at Circuit of The Americas on March 1 in addition to events at Darlington Raceway (April 5), Nashville Superspeedway (May 31), Dover Motor Speedway (July 19) and Iowa Speedway (Aug. 2).
Van Gisbergen, the road-course ace who earned three victories in his rookie Xfinity campaign in 2024, is scheduled to get behind the wheel in Mexico City (June 14), at the Chicago Street Race (July 5), at Sonoma Raceway (July 12) and at Watkins Glen International (Aug. 9).
“I think there is a lot of benefit to getting seat time on Saturdays in the Xfinity Series,” Chastain said in a press release. “Getting an opportunity to do it with JR Motorsports is too good an opportunity to pass up. I know every time I climb in their Chevrolets, we will have a chance to win.”
Looking forward to doing some @NASCAR XFinity Races this year with @JRMotorsports in Mexico City, Chicago, Sonoma & Watkins Glen! 😀 pic.twitter.com/ixIBa1MihT

“I’m trying to get as much experience as I can,” van Gisbergen, the three-time Supercars champion, said in a release. “JR Motorsports is one of the top teams and won the championship with Justin Allgaier. I can’t wait to get started.
