Emerling-Gase Motorsports is expanding to two full-time entries in the NASCAR Xfinity Series for the 2023 season.
The team will field the No. 35 and No. 53 cars for the entire 2023 season after running them in a limited basis with Joey Gase and Shane Lee in the driver seat.
“I am extremely proud of our Emerling-Gase Motorsports team,” said co-owner and driver for EGM Joey Gase. “There are not too many start up teams or small teams this season that can say they have made every race they have entered and only have 2 DNF’s, plus be in the top 30 in owner points. I have been racing in the sport since 2011 and can say without a doubt this is the toughest the XFINITY Series field has been in the last 10 years. We could not do this without our tremendous employees we have at EGM and of course all our sponsors like Donate Life, Kitty Kat Coin, Eternal Fan, Captain Pips and many more. With that being said, we have a lot of work to do and a lot of room to grow and Patrick and I are looking forward to the challenge.”
“We faced a lot of challenges as a startup team and I am very proud of what we have accomplished so far,” said co-owner and driver for EGM Patrick Emerling. “I am looking forward to working with Joey and the whole EGM group, and continuing to grow our team into the future.”
The team plans to use a close to full-time driver in the No. 35 car with Gase, Emerling, and Lee as drivers of the No. 53 car.
