JEGS Joins Cody Coughlin At GMS Racing

STATESVILLE, N.C. — JEGS Automotive Inc. will join GMS Racing to continue its sponsorship of Cody Coughlin in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.

Coughlin’s NASCAR career has accelerated again this week, with GMS Racing officials announcing the team has secured a contract with the 22-year-old driver, who will compete full-time in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series this season. He ran the full schedule last year for ThorSport Racing.

“I couldn’t be more excited to join the GMS Racing family, and to be back running with Chevrolet,” Coughlin said. “GMS Racing is a team that has proven to be one of the teams to beat every time they unload at the race track, and now I have the same opportunity.

“I can’t thank GMS Racing, team owner Maury Gallagher and director of competition Mike Beam enough for this chance. I think we have the right tools and personnel in place with the No. 2 JEGS Chevrolet Silverado team to run up front and contend for race wins every weekend.”

Coughlin will join drivers Justin Haley, Dalton Sargeant and Johnny Sauter as a member of the four-truck full-time NASCAR Camping World Truck Series operation at GMS Racin
