WESTFIELD, Mass. — Jeff Anton returns to Watkins Glen International this weekend in the No. 44 Deer Park Recycling Chevrolet for Quarterley Racing.

Anton will make his first start of the 2026 ARCA Menards Series season with Quarterley Racing after showing a strong performance last year at Sonoma Raceway, where he earned an impressive eighth-place finish. He looks to carry that momentum into a competitive field at Watkins Glen, with the race scheduled for Friday at 1:30 p.m. ET on FS2.

Quarterley Racing brings a proven track record to the historic road course, highlighted by a top-five finish last season with “Road Course Ringer” Dale Quarterley. Quarterley will serve as crew chief for Anton this weekend, bringing decades of experience to the pit box. His resume includes a pole position in the 2002 Busch North Series at Watkins Glen, along with two top-five and three top-10 finishes in ARCA competition. He has also competed in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series and driven a NASCAR Cup Series car at Watkins Glen.

Deer Park Recycling and Squid Decals return as the main sponsors of the No. 44 Chevrolet. Squid Decals, which is owned by Anton, is a professional wrap shop in Westfield, Massachusetts, that specializes in wraps for vehicles, fleets, motorsports, walls, gaming, etc.

Anton, from Russell, Massachusetts (born March 9, 1981), is a veteran of the ARCA Menards Series with numerous top finishes, including a top-10 points result in the ARCA Menards Series East. In his most recent race with the team, Anton earned an eighth-place finish, further showing his consistency on road courses.
