Ram returns to NascarKaulig Racing has been used to help achieve this.
Ram officially confirmed On Saturday, the Kulij Rising team, the young aggressive team owned by the Oyeu -based businessman Matt College, will become an anchor team to return to the truck maker to Naskar, starting with the craft truck chain in 2026.
Kaulig Racing was set up to up to five RAM 1500 trucks in the truck chain that starts on February 13, 2026, when the season begins in the DayTona International Speedway.

“This partnership is much more than just a new chapter in the history of Kaulig Racing, it is a union of common values,” College told Fox News Digital. “Over the past decade, our team has built a legacy root in performance, integrity and return to society. To unify the forces because the anchor team to return Ram to Naskar is an honor and responsibility.
The Dodge brand was one of the institutions of the truck series before 1995, and it eventually led to the appearance of a long Ram as its own brand by 2010. However, it closed a store in 2013 and was sleeping since then.
This changed on June 8 in Michigan International Racing, where Ram announced that it would return to the Naskar craft trucks series. But while excitement filled the air, a big question immediately entered the minds of each race team: Who is cooperating with Ram?
“They wander around the garage, you cannot even say anything,” said Colig. And everyone is trying to guess like, “Who is the team? Are he comrades? “We are like, no, are you?” So, just to be able to get it out in the open and get the trader, this was the biggest thing. “
The CEO of RAM Tim Kuniskis said: “We have truly conforming to the RAM and adopting our unconventional approach to NASCAR.”
Tae Norris, chief business official College racesWhich brings more than three decades of Naskar’s experience, knows that his unconventional and aggressive approach is logical to this opportunity.
“When we met with Tim and Night [Buelow] In Oporne Hills, Michigan, they told us that not everyone wants to market as we and Natsols are responsible. While they were looking for multiple teams, College Resing became the team that fits all the pieces. He had a great relationship with Matt, who, relevant, is a young man. He clearly has the means, and he has a passion for this sport. It is unconventional, so I think Tim is really excited because they will do some unconventional things in their marketing approach.
“When they looked at the general image of the College race, they said this one is checking all the boxes.”
Unconventional is something that Kaulig Racing wears as an honor sign. It is a young team for the first time in 2016 in the Xfinity series – less than 10 years ago. As College said, his team had no race store when he started.
But the new challenge campaign feeds the 52 -year -old entrepreneur, who built the protection of the bottom, Leafilter, to a millions of dollars company from his garage. His love for the race grew only since the care of Leafilter car – to the extent that Kaulig Racing began. The team is now proud 27 wins Xfinity and two cups.
“I do not know the number of teams in the history of NASCAR won all three series,” Colij said. “So, this is a really big goal for me and our organization. It is like,” well, we have shown that we can compete even at the cup level. We explain that we can win championships in the normal season in Xfinity. “We will win again and we will be successful in this series as well, but to do this in the Truck series now with RAM and bring all the excitement and drama that correspond to that, it will be fun.
What makes this perfect synergy with Kaulig Racing and RAM? Frankly put coli.
He said, smiling: “She’s American Badda-” he said.
The aggressive approach to College Resing has attracted the business side, but on the side of the performance, team leader Chris Rice, who has experience in operating the truck chain teams, feels the same way.
It is the “Kaulig Road”, and this means doing things differently from other difference in the garage. Rice has completely placed it indicating the Kaulig logo at the company level.
“If you don’t grow, you are dying,” Rice told Fox News Digital. “This is a type of logo that we are talking about. Only to be able to be in the truck chain on Friday or Thursday when they run a good thing. To get our name there, Kaulig precedes, it is a great thing for our company and what he does.
The presence of up to five trucks to work with it can be a huge challenge, especially for a team like Kaulig Racing, which storms the new series. But again, the challenge is something that this group takes face to face, and Rice knows the main factor in ensuring that this process works smoothly.
“It is summarized in people, and the way we do in Colig races is that we are a family,” he said. “Everyone is working on everything. You are not in a cup team, you are not in the Xfinity team. With this, you are not only in the Truck team, you are in the Kaulig Racing team.
“Kaulig method is difficult because we are aggressive. You must believe that, you must eat, you must breathe, you should sleep.”
Rice has seen these words, where he worked long hours and cooperated with College and Noris and everyone to get the right people in their place to be ready to compete by February 2026. The reason for long hours is to understand what this means for the collaboration of collaboration with random access memory.
There is a weight of responsibility – one that they do not consider is rejected by it.
“We need to present ourselves properly and there is a lot of responsibility in holding this brand with us,” Norris said. “… when this size is a great American company in this blue -collar approach to everything, there is the responsibility for taking this brand and re -introducing it to the NASCAR fans base.”
“It is more fun for me, than responsibility. We are full of responsibility and full of responsible people, so I am not worried about this part of it. It is just a fun building a business,” Colig added.
The College racing team, from top to bottom, is known as the challenges and obstacles awaiting us. But the excitement of work alongside Ram, and we hope that you will enter into a soft victory next year, is what raises this prosperous team.
“This is all about the family, everything about fun, and everything about winning races,” Rice said. “This is what we want to return to: winning races and hunting cup. It is just a new era of cup hunting in the truck chain.”
