Gaffney, SC. (June 2, 2022) – Standout Management Group (SMG) and NASCAR driver Gray Gaulding are excited to announce the return of sponsor JT Marine headquartered in Vancouver, Washington. Gray will be partnering with JD Motorsports for the June 4th “Pacific Office Automation 147” event at Portland International Raceway competing in the #6 JT Marine Chevrolet Camaro.
Gaulding, who will be competing in only his second race of 2022 is returning to the Xfinity Series after a 21st place finish at Talladega Superspeedway on April 23rd. Since 2014, Gaulding has a combined 141 starts across NASCAR’s top three series.
“I cannot wait to climb back in the car at Portland especially with our longtime partner JT Marine on board. Timo and his team connected with us back in 2019 to sponsor races at Las Vegas, Kansas, and Phoenix. When the 2022 schedule was announced and included PIR, we knew that a reunion had to happen” says Gaulding. “I am super pumped to be running the newest road course on the Xfinity schedule along with the highly competitive team owned by Johnny Davis to see what we can make happen!”
Timo Toristoja, president of JT Marine, states, “With more than 80 years of combined shipbuilding, marine shipyard services, and repair experience JT Marine Inc. offers the ideal, complete service location for major retrofits, new construction, and vessel repair.
