No. 19 Destiny Homes Toyota GR Supra News and Notes:

  • MOFFITT AT IOWA: Brett Moffitt is returning to his home track, Iowa Speedway, this weekend where he has two previous NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS) starts. Moffitt made his NXS debut at the track in 2012 earning a ninth-place finish. He also won a pair of back-to-back NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series (NCTS) races at Iowa in 2018 and 2019. He has eight ARCA Menards Series East (AMSE) and West (AMSW) starts at the track with one win, five top-five finishes, and seven top-10s. Moffitt is making a return to Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) this weekend, making his first start with the team since his 2010 AMSE season where he collected two wins and six top-five finishes as the AMSE championship runner-up.
  • ON THE PITBOX: Seth Chavka will lead the No. 19 Toyota GR Supra team for the 2024 season as he embarks on his rookie season as a crew chief in the Xfinity Series. Chavka is no stranger to JGR, as he has spent time in the Cup Series shop as lead race engineer for the likes of Erik Jones, Kyle Busch, and most recently, Ty Gibbs, since starting his tenure with the team in 2019. Prior to joining JGR, Chavka spent seven years at Richard Childress Racing and one year at Kevin Harvick Inc. as an engineer. In his 13 years spent in NASCAR, Chavka has earned six NASCAR Cup Series victories and four Xfinity Series victories.
  • NO. 19 IN 2024: The JGR No. 19 will have a rotating schedule of drivers throughout the 2024 season. Ryan Truex, Aric Almirola, Taylor Gray, Josh Bilicki and Gibbs have already made starts behind the wheel. Joe Graf Jr., Justin Bonsignore, and William Sawalich are also slated to run races later this year.
  • JGR AT IOWA:  Joe Gibbs Racing has seven Xfinity Series wins at Iowa Speedway. In 58 combined starts at the .875-mile track, the organization has tallied 23 top-five finishes, 36 top-10s, eight pole awards, and 1,948 laps led. Kyle Busch, Ryan Preece, Sam Hornish, Jr., Erik Jones, and Christopher Bell have all driven JGR cars to victory lane.

From the Driver’s Seat:

Brett Moffitt: “I am excited to be racing the No. 19 in my home state on a track where I have had great performances. It is going to be a good time to get back in an Xfinity car at Iowa. I really love this track and I’ve been successful here so I’m hoping that we can find that same success this weekend.”
