Trackhouse Racing recently announced an expanded sponsorship for their drivers Ross Chastain and Daniel Suarez from Kubota Tractor Corporation for the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season. Both drivers will carry the familiar orange Kubota paint scheme in select races in 2023.
Kubota Tractor Corp. became the official Tractor company of the team after sponsoring Ross Chastain’s #1 Chevrolet last season at Homestead-Miami Speedway. The company is expanding its sponsorship to six Cup Series races in the 2023 season.
With each of @RossChastain’s top-10 finishes, Kubota will be donating $10,000 to Farmers Veteran Coalition helping veterans transition into careers in farming.

The Trackhouse Racing team also announced a donation of $10,000 to the Farmer Veteran Coalition for each Kubota-sponsored race in which Chastain finishes inside the top-10.
Ross Chastain spoke about his new sponsor for the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season
Ross Chastain is coming off a successful 2022 NASCAR Cup Series where he scored two wins and 15 top-five finishes. He went on to advance to the championship race in 2022, ultimately finishing second in the Championship standings.
Speaking about his new partner, Chastain said:
“Growing up in a farming family, the hard work and lessons I learned are what has molded me into the racecar driver you see on the track today. This sponsorship from Kubota is especially meaningful to me because it allows me to use my platform to shine a bright light on agriculture and on the men and women who work so hard to feed all of us.”
“I’m excited to get the Kubota orange paint scheme back out on the track this season and also help military veterans get their start in farming with each top-10 finish.”
