Moffitt To Join GMS XFINITY Team In Iowa

STATESVILLE, N.C. – GMS Racing officials announced Thursday that Iowa native Brett Moffitt will fill the NASCAR XFINITY Series No. 96 Northland Foundations Inc. Chevrolet Camaro entry at Iowa Speedway.

This event will mark Moffitt’s second XFINITY Series event at his hometown track of Iowa Speedway. In his first XFINITY Series start, Moffitt collected a top-10 finish at the seven-eighths-mile track in 2012.

“I am really excited to be racing in my home state again,” said Moffitt. “I’m extremely thankful for the opportunity with GMS Racing and I’m very grateful for the support that the Iowa community has shown and put in to support this race. It would be really awesome to bring home a solid finish in front of my hometown fans.”

The No. 96 has been entered into four XFINITY Series events this season with Ben Kennedy behind the wheel.

“We are thrilled to have Brett Moffitt in the No. 96 at Iowa Speedway,” said Mike Beam, GMS Racing general manager. “We are always looking to grow our program and the more drivers we can get in the seat the better. Moffitt is a class act and a very talented driver, we are honored to have him behind the wheel at his home track.”
