Front Row Motorsports (FRM) has announced an exciting expansion of its sponsorship lineup for the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season. Mystik® Lubricants will join forces with Zane Smith and the No. 38 Ford Mustang Dark Horse team for multiple races as a primary sponsor, as well as supporting the team throughout the season as an associate sponsor. Additionally, the CITGO® CITGARD® Heavy Duty Engine Oils brand will also support Smith as an associate sponsor for the entire year.
As part of this multi-race partnership, the iconic Mystik branding will be featured prominently on Smith’s No. 38 car at two key events this season—Nashville Superspeedway in June and Iowa Speedway in August. These races promise a significant spotlight for Mystik, offering maximum exposure to the brand amidst a passionate NASCAR fanbase.
“We look forward to continuing our partnership with Front Row Motorsports and supporting our new driver, Zane Smith,” said Braden McElroy, General Manager of CITGO Lubricants. “Having the new Mystik Lubricants-centered design on the No. 38 car this season provides great brand exposure with millions of racing fans. It will be an unbeatable combination, just like how Mystik JT-6® Greases and CITGARD Heavy Duty Engine Oils are for any tough situation your equipment may face in the field.”
Smith, who is entering his first full season behind the wheel of the No. 38 Mustang, expressed his excitement for the partnership. “I am excited to have Mystik and CITGARD back on board the No. 38 this season,” Smith shared. “Mystik and CITGARD have been involved with Front Row Motorsports since 2018, and I believe we have the team and capabilities to give them some strong results this season. Our hauler drivers and mechanics are pretty stoked to have their products around the shop also.”
The partnership continues to be managed by Fritz Sports & Event Enterprises (FSE), who have played a key role in bringing together brands and teams across the motorsports world.
Fans can look forward to seeing the bold new Mystik-themed livery hit the track this summer, representing a powerful collaboration between trusted brands and rising racing talent.
