STATESVILLE, N.C. – Cyclum NextGen Travel Centers, Capstone Engineered Solutions and Gallagher Insurance, featuring a 76® Renewable Diesel branded car, will continue their partnership with Kole Raz and AM Racing for the second race of the 2025 ARCA Menards Series this Friday night at Phoenix (Ariz.) Raceway.
After earning a top-10 finish at Phoenix Raceway last November and delivering an electrifying performance at Daytona (Fla.) International Speedway last month, the trio continues strengthening their partnership with Raz and AM Racing for this weekend’s showdown in Avondale, Ariz.
Since their collaboration began in the 2024 ARCA Menards Series West season finale at Phoenix Raceway, the team, driver, and partners have secured two consecutive top-10 finishes. Now, they set their sights on a top-five finish — or a victory — in Friday night’s General Tire 150.
For the second of 20 ARCA Menards Series races this season, Cyclum NextGen Travel Centers will highlight its partnership with Phillips 66 and promote the importance of 76 Renewable Diesel, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability and environmental initiatives.
Through its alliance with AM Racing and its support of rising star Kole Raz, Cyclum and its partners continue to emphasize the significance of reducing carbon emissions and advancing cleaner fuel alternatives on and off the track.
To debut this initiative, the AM Racing team will field a green-based No. 76 Ford Mustang for the 150-lap race on March 7, 2025. This special livery underscores the team’s commitment to promoting sustainability and environmental awareness in motorsports for the Trucking and Transportation Industry.
“These partnerships strengthen our mission to lead in Traditional, Transitional, and Renewable “TTR” fuel innovation,” said Brian Profitt, CEO of Cyclum. “By combining the ARCA Menards Series with our Cyclum vision and plan for zero carbon energy, we’re building a foundation to meet the growing demand for multiple fuel solutions with Trucking Fleets from Coast to Coast.
“This partnership marks a significant next step in the transition towards sustainable transportation infrastructure,” said Jim Crouse, CEO of Capstone Engineered Solutions Corporation. “By working exclusively with Cyclum NextGen Travel Centers, we have the opportunity to showcase the effectiveness and reliability of microgrid solutions in meeting the evolving needs of the transportation industry.”
“I am beyond excited to return to Phoenix Raceway and pick up from where we left off last November,” said Raz. “Being in a good place in the championship standings gives us an added boost to ensure we are just as strong — if not stronger — at Phoenix than we were at Daytona.
“It’s always a pleasure working with such a strong team. ‘Pickle’ (Ryan London, crew chief) and the AM Racing guys have been working hard since Daytona to make sure we’re bringing a strong piece for this weekend.”
Entering Phoenix, Raz is sixth in the ARCA Menards Series championship standings, one point behind Helio Castroneves for fifth and nine markers behind series leader Brenden Queen.
Additionally, AM Racing sits sixth in the championship owner standings.
