Texas Based Company to be Primary Partner in Four NXS Events for Sam Mayer
MOORESVILLE, N.C. (April 17, 2024) – JR Motorsports announced today that RTIC Outdoors, the Official Cooler and Drinkware partner of NASCAR, will come on board the No. 1 Chevrolet with driver Sam Mayer for four primary events during the 2024 NASCAR Xfinity Series season. RTIC will be the primary partner for races at Darlington Raceway (May 11), Portland International Raceway (June1), Sonoma Raceway (June 8) and Pocono Raceway (July 13).
“We are thrilled to welcome RTIC Outdoors to the JR Motorsports family,” said JRM CEO Kelley Earnhardt Miller. “They are a brand that has definitely had a strong presence around our sport and it is great to have them join us and the No. 1 team with Sam for four races this season. I can’t wait to get this partnership started and see what we can all accomplish together.”
Founded in 2014, RTIC’s mission has been to provide high-quality, affordable products for all. That includes premium Coolers, Drinkware, and Outdoor Gear that are engineered to perform, built to last, and always priced right. In April 2023, RTIC became the Official Cooler and Drinkware sponsor of NASCAR, offering officially licensed NASCAR Drinkware and Coolers at rticoutdoors.com. As part of their commitment to continue providing quality, affordable products directly to consumers, RTIC is now available in Walmart Stores across the nation.
“This partnership with JRM and Sam is very exciting,” said RTIC Outdoors CEO Bill Pond, “Not only do their blue-collar values align with our own, but their history in NASCAR and performance on the track is paralleled by their commitment to a successful partnership.”
Following last weekend’s dramatic victory at Texas Motor Speedway, Mayer has now scored two consecutive finishes inside the top-two and finds himself locked into the NXS Playoffs for the third time in his career.
“I’m really happy to be welcoming RTIC Outdoors to JR Motorsports and to our No. 1 team,” said Mayer. “It’s been great getting to know everyone at RTIC over the last couple of weeks and I can’t wait to get to the track with them in Darlington and see what we can do together.”
