LEXINGTON, N.C. – Landon Cassill will drive for Kaulig Racing full-time in the 2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series with support from sponsor Voyager Digital, which announced a two-year extension with the NASCAR veteran and again pay him entirely in cryptocurrency.
Voyager is one of the fastest-growing, publicly traded cryptocurrency platforms in the United States and backed Cassill in 19 Xfinity Series races this past season with JD Motorsports.
“We built a historic partnership with Landon, as the first NASCAR driver to be paid in crypto, and continuing this journey with him is an incredible ride for Voyager,” Steve Ehrlich, CEO and co-founder of Voyager, said in a statement. We’re excited about this collaboration with Kaulig Racing and can’t wait to see what is next in Landon’s promising career.”
Cassill will drive Kaulig’s No. 10 Chevrolet and fill out a championship-contending lineup that includes A.J. Allmendinger and Daniel Hemric.
“We are really excited to bring Landon Cassill onboard for the 2022 season,” said Chris Rice, president of Kaulig Racing. “Landon has competed in NASCAR’s top series for many years and has brought with him a pivotal partner in Voyager Digital. We are looking forward to this partnership with Voyager and think Landon will be a great asset to our Kaulig Racing family.”
Since 2007, Cassill has made a total of 510 starts across all three of NASCAR’s national series, with 176 of those being made in the Xfinity Series. Cassill also earned the title of Rookie of the Year in the Xfinity Series in 2008 with JR Motorsports, also securing a pole award and five top 10 finishes that same year.
“Continuing my partnership with Voyager Digital and driving for Kaulig Racing is an incredible opportunity for me,” said Cassill. “I have a world-class partner in Voyager and the best support team in the business with Kaulig Racing. I am excited to not only have a shot to win races, but to also bring awareness to crypto and help educate people in a space that I’ve been personally invested in for a number of years.
In addition to its primary partnership, Voyager is teaming up with the crypto cashback platform StormX to raise awareness and drive cryptocurrency adoption and payment solutions provider, Usio, Inc. (NASDAQ: USIO).
StormX and Usio will be featured on the No. 10 Chevrolet during select races the upcoming Xfinity season.
