Mandy Chick will compete in the ARCA Menards Series during the 2023 season with sponsorship from the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, a partnership that was announced during the PRI Trade Show in Indianapolis last week.

Rose-Hulman, located in Terre Haute, Indiana, will be the primary sponsor of the No. 74 Toyota driven by the 21-year-old Chick at Daytona International Speedway on Feb. 18 and Talladega Superspeedway on April 22.

“Our partnership with Rose-Hulman is something I’ve been dreaming of for a long time,” said Chick, who is currently a junior at Rose-Hulman and made her ARCA Menards Series debut during the 2022 season. “Since day one of my freshman year, the Rose community has rallied around my racing career.

“I am very excited for this new opportunity to see how my academic and professional careers collide with Rose-Hulman by my side.”
