GMS Racing was an American professional stock car racing team that competed in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, fielding three Chevrolet Silverado trucks: the No. 23 for Grant Enfinger, the No. 24 for Rajah Caruth, and the No. 43 for Daniel Dye.

GMS Racing previously competed in the NASCAR Xfinity Series from 2016 to 2019 and in the ARCA Menards Series from 2011 to 2015 and again from 2019 to 2022.^[2] The team's driver development program, Drivers Edge Development, is operated in conjunction with JR Motorsports.

Owner Maurice J. Gallagher Jr. is the chairman and CEO of Allegiant Travel Company, which intermittently sponsors the team through its Allegiant Air brand.^[3]

On August 23, 2023, the team announced that it would cease operations at the end of the 2023 racing season, along with GMS Fabrication, a separate entity affiliated with the team.^[4]

Before forming his own team, Maurice Gallagher was involved in NASCAR with local Las Vegas driver and friend Spencer Clark's team, which competed in the NASCAR Busch East Series and Busch Series until Clark's unexpected death in 2006.^[5]

GMS Racing, initially known as Gallagher Motorsports, was formed in 2011 when they entered ARCA competition. The team expanded operations into the Camping World Truck Series in 2013,^[3] and later entered the Xfinity Series in 2016. The team was originally based in Charlotte, North Carolina, occupying the former BAM Racing shop. They later relocated, and BK Racing took over their previous facility.^[6]

In 2014, GMS Racing acquired the assets of Richard Childress Racing's Truck Series program and entered into a technical alliance with the organization.^[7] In 2015, former crew chief Mike Beam became competition director,^[1] and both Richard Childress Racing and Chevrolet increased their technical support.^[3] That same year, the team relocated to Statesville, North Carolina, to a facility previously used by Evernham Motorsports and later Richard Petty Motorsports. The facility had been vacant since 2010.^{[8][9][10][11]}

GMS Racing also adopted a number font previously used by Braun Racing and Turner Scott Motorsports.^[3] Starting in 2016, the No. 21 team in the Xfinity Series alternated between its usual number style and the font used by Wood Brothers Racing. In early 2017, GMS Racing formed an alliance with Halmar Friesen Racing,^[12] which was later expanded in August of the same year.^[13]

In early 2019, GMS Racing announced the creation of the Chevrolet development program, Drivers Edge Development, in partnership with JR Motorsports. The program placed drivers in GMS's NASCAR K&N Pro Series, ARCA Menards Series, and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series teams, as well as JR Motorsports' Late Model and NASCAR Xfinity Series teams. Mentors included Mardy Lindley (GMS crew chief) and Josh Berry (JR Motorsports Late Model driver). Among the inaugural members were John Hunter Nemechek, Sheldon Creed, and Sam Mayer.^[14]

On December 1, 2021, Gallagher purchased a majority interest in the former Richard Petty Motorsports for $19 million. The deal included both of RPM's charters; the No. 43 continued to operate under its charter, while a second charter, leased to Rick Ware Racing for the No. 51 from 2019 to 2021, was transferred to a new No. 42 car for the team.^[15] The team was subsequently rebranded as Petty GMS Motorsports. However, GMS Racing continued to operate independently from Petty GMS, and Richard Petty did not buy into GMS' Truck and ARCA teams. In 2023, Petty GMS Motorsports was renamed to Legacy Motor Club after seven-time Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson purchased a stake in the team.

On August 23, 2023, GMS Racing announced that the team and GMS Fabrication would cease operations at the end of the 2023 season. Gallagher, alongside Johnson, will shift focus to developing Legacy Motor Club in the Cup Series.^[4] The former GMS Fabrication building was acquired by Rackley W.A.R. in late-2024.^[16]

Part-time (2016)

On February 4, 2016, GMS Racing announced that they would field a part-time Chevrolet Camaro for Spencer Gallagher in 13 races, starting at Phoenix. The car would carry the No. 21. Gallagher finished 23rd in his debut race.^[17] Gallagher competed in a total of seven races in the No. 21 car during the 2016 season, with his best finish being eighth at Daytona in July.^[18]

Spencer Gallagher (2017–2018)

On December 1, 2016, GMS Racing announced that they would field a full-time No. 23 Chevrolet Camaro for Spencer Gallagher, as the No. 21 was occupied by Richard Childress Racing driver Daniel Hemric.^[18] Gallagher had a disappointing rookie season in 2017, achieving only one top-10 finish at Richmond and recording eight DNFs.

However, the organization secured its first NASCAR Xfinity Series victory with Gallagher in the spring of 2018 at Talladega Superspeedway.^[19] Just four days after his win, on May 2, 2018, NASCAR announced that Gallagher was suspended indefinitely for a violation of NASCAR's substance-abuse policy.^[20]

Johnny Sauter was named as a substitute driver.^[21] Brennan Poole tested the car at Charlotte, leading to speculation that he might drive in the upcoming Charlotte race.^[22] However, it was later confirmed that Cup Series driver Chase Elliott would drive the car for races at Pocono, Chicagoland, Daytona, and Bristol.^[23]

Alex Bowman was subsequently announced as the driver of the No. 23 for Michigan and Kentucky, while Justin Haley made his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut in the No. 23 at Iowa. Casey Roderick returned to the series to drive the No. 23 in the July Iowa race, and later that evening, it was revealed that A. J. Allmendinger would drive the No. 23 at Watkins Glen the following weekend.

On August 4, 2018, GMS Racing announced that NASCAR Hall of Famer and 1988 NASCAR Winston Cup Series champion Bill Elliott would come out of retirement to drive the No. 23 at the Road America race on August 25.^[24]

John Hunter Nemechek (2019)

John Hunter Nemechek joined the No. 23 car from Chip Ganassi Racing to run the full season in 2019. Despite leading only 14 laps, Nemechek qualified for the NASCAR Xfinity Series playoffs (known as "The Chase") and performed well, finishing seventh in the final points standings—the best result for GMS Racing. After the season, Nemechek announced that he would be leaving to join Front Row Motorsports in the NASCAR Cup Series, leaving the No. 23 car without a driver for the 2020 season. During his one year at GMS Racing, Nemechek recorded five top-5 finishes and 19 top-10s.

Justin Haley (2018)

Although there were rumors for many months that Brennan Poole and Brett Moffitt would share the car full-time in 2018, the car did not return until later in the year, renumbered as the No. 24. Justin Haley drove the car at the July race in Daytona and again at Watkins Glen in August. At Daytona, Haley was running third on the last lap coming off Turn 4. He made a bold move to pass both Kyle Larson and Elliott Sadler and crossed the finish line first. However, it was determined that Haley had driven below the yellow line while passing, even though there appeared to be enough room to make the pass. As a result, NASCAR penalized Haley, stripping him of the win and awarding it to Kyle Larson, with Haley being placed as the last car on the lead lap. Many expected Haley to drive this car full-time in 2019, but he moved on to Kaulig Racing instead.

Ben Kennedy (2017)

On April 17, 2017, it was announced that Ben Kennedy would pilot a new second Xfinity entry for GMS Racing in twelve races, starting with the May race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.^[25] Jeff Stankiewicz, who had served as Kennedy's crew chief during his 2016 Truck Series playoff run, was also appointed crew chief for the No. 96.^[26] Brett Moffitt drove the No. 96 at the second Iowa race, securing an 11th-place finish. However, the No. 96 team has not competed since Darlington Raceway, and the team withdrew from several races afterward due to a lack of sponsorship.^[27]

On November 21, 2019, GMS Racing announced the closure of their Xfinity Series program to concentrate on their Truck Series and ARCA Menards Series teams.^[28]

Cody Coughlin (2018)

On January 16, 2018, it was announced that Cody Coughlin would drive the No. 2 JEGS Chevrolet for the 2018 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. On September 24, 2018, Coughlin was released due to sponsorship issues. Spencer Gallagher drove the truck at the Talladega race, where he finished 25th. Sheldon Creed was then announced as the driver for the remainder of the season.

Sheldon Creed (2018–2021)

Sheldon Creed took over the No. 2 truck full-time in 2019, after running the last four races of the 2018 season. On July 22, 2019, GMS Racing announced that Jeff Stankiewicz would replace Doug Randolph as the crew chief for the No. 2 truck.^[29] On August 6, 2019, NASCAR suspended Stankiewicz, truck chief Austin Pollak, and engineer Jonathan Stewart for three races through September 10 after the No. 2 truck was found to have a ballast container violation during post-race inspection at Eldora Dirt Derby. Darren Fraley served as interim crew chief during Stankiewicz's suspension.^[30] Creed finished 11th in points with four top-5 finishes and 11 top-10 finishes.^[31]

Creed had a breakout season in 2020. He won his first race in a rain-shortened Buckle Up in Your Truck 225, and his first non-rain-shortened win in the BrakeBest Select 159 five weeks later. Creed eventually won the championship with five wins, nine top-fives, and thirteen top-tens.^[32]

Creed remained in the No. 2 for the 2021 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.^[33] At Darlington Raceway, crashes in the final stage eliminated the leaders, and Creed took the lead on the final restart, holding off Ben Rhodes to win his first race of the season.^[34] Creed entered the playoffs as the fifth seed and won the first two races at Gateway and Darlington.^[35][36] A crash at Las Vegas dropped Creed outside of the top four in points, which are required to advance to the Championship Round.^[37] Although he finished ninth in the Round of 8's elimination race at Martinsville, he was four points short of making the final round.^[38] Creed moved to the Richard Childress Racing No. 2 car in the Xfinity Series in 2022, and the No. 2 truck was shut down.

The No. 21 truck made five attempts in 2013 with Spencer Gallagher as the driver, qualifying for three races. Gallagher finished 22nd at Kansas, 20th at Texas, and 32nd in the season finale at Homestead.^[39]

Joey Coulter (2014)

In January 2014, it was announced that 23-year-old Joey Coulter would drive the No. 21 Silverado full-time for GMS Racing after competing in Toyotas during the 2013 season for Kyle Busch Motorsports and Joe Gibbs Racing. GMS also announced a technical alliance with RCR, the team Coulter had driven for in 2011 and 2012, where he secured a win at Pocono. Jeff Stankiewicz was named as the crew chief.^[40] Coulter earned three top 5s and ten top 10s, finishing 7th in the points standings.

Part-time (2015)

Due to a lack of sponsorship, Joey Coulter did not return to the driver's seat in 2015. Instead, he transitioned into the role of team relationships coordinator for GMS Racing.^[41] In October, at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Brennan Poole made his series debut in the No. 21 truck, with sponsorship from DC Solar.^[42]

Johnny Sauter (2016–2018)

Johnny Sauter drove full-time in 2016 in the No. 21 Chevrolet Silverado with crew chief Marcus Richmond.^[43] Sauter won in his debut with GMS at Daytona.^[44] However, in the next three races, he finished 28th, 32nd, and 16th, respectively. Sauter won the fall race at Martinsville, clinching a spot in the Championship 4 race at Homestead.^[45] The following week, Sauter won the fall race at Texas, marking his third victory of the season.^[46] Sauter secured his first career Truck Series championship at Homestead, finishing third in the race.^[47]

Sauter returned to the team in 2017.^[48][49] After qualifying for the Championship 4 round in both 2017 and 2018, Sauter lost to Christopher Bell and Brett Moffitt in each respective year. Sauter was released from the team in 2019 due to a lack of sponsorship, making way for Brett Moffitt.

Part Time (2019)

It was later announced that Sam Mayer would drive the No. 21 on a part-time schedule towards the end of the 2019 season.

Zane Smith (2020–2021)

On November 19, 2019, it was announced that Zane Smith would drive a fourth full-time truck for the 2020 season, which was later revealed to be the No. 21. Smith had an outstanding rookie season with two wins, seven top fives, thirteen top tens, and a second-place finish in the points standings.

Smith returned to the team in 2021.^[50] He made it to the Championship 4 again after winning at Martinsville.^[51] He finished second in the standings again. Smith moved to the Front Row Motorsports No. 38 truck in 2022, and the No. 21 truck was subsequently shut down.

Spencer Gallagher (2014–2016)

The No. 23 truck ran part-time in 2014, with Spencer Gallagher (9 races) and Max Gresham (5 races).^[3][52] The team struggled in their first three races, with crashes at Martinsville and Kansas involving Gallagher, and a transmission failure with Gresham at Charlotte. They bounced back with an 11th-place finish at Kentucky with Gresham and top-15 finishes at Iowa, Pocono, and Michigan with Gallagher. Gallagher earned a career-best finish of third at Talladega in October.^[53]

In a 2014 interview with NASCAR.com, Spencer Gallagher stated that he planned to run full-time in the Truck Series in 2015, presumably in the No. 23.^[54] The No. 23 truck was announced as a full-time team with Gallagher in January 2015.^[55] He went on to finish 10th in the points standings that season.

Gallagher returned for 2016 with new crew chief Jeff Hensley.^[43] He earned two poles, with one top-five and eight top-10 finishes, ultimately finishing 12th in the points standings.^[18]

Part-time (2017–2018)

In 2017, the No. 23 truck returned to the track on a part-time basis, with Spencer Gallagher and Chase Elliott sharing driving duties. At Martinsville, Elliott secured the first win for the No. 23 truck. Following this victory, the No. 23 team decided to shut down for the remainder of the season and sold their owner points to Norm Benning Racing.

A year later, in 2018, the No. 23 team returned with Timothy Peters driving at Martinsville, where he earned a top-10 finish.

Brett Moffitt (2020)

On December 13, 2019, it was announced that Brett Moffitt would drive the No. 23 truck full-time in 2020, with Chad Norris as his crew chief. Despite securing only one win throughout the season, Moffitt advanced to the Championship 4. He was leading the championship race at Phoenix Raceway when a caution for Dawson Cram occurred, causing Moffitt to fall back and finish 10th.

Chase Purdy (2021)

In 2021, Chase Purdy drove the No. 23 full-time, replacing Brett Moffitt.^[56] On August 5, 2021, Purdy tested positive for COVID-19, and A. J. Allmendinger stepped in as his replacement for the race at Watkins Glen.^[57]

Grant Enfinger (2022–2023)

On October 1, 2021, it was announced that Grant Enfinger would drive the No. 23 truck full-time in the 2022 and 2023 seasons.^[58]

Enfinger began the 2022 season with a 29th-place finish at Daytona. He scored three top-fives and seven top-10 finishes to make the playoffs. During the playoffs, Enfinger earned his first win of the season at Indianapolis Raceway Park.^[59]

Enfinger started the 2023 season with a fifth-place finish at Daytona. He secured wins at Kansas, Gateway, and the Milwaukee Mile.^[60] Enfinger finished fourth at Homestead to advance to the Championship 4.^[61] He finished sixth at Phoenix and second in the final points standings.^[62]
