“I may be telling my age, I don’t know. I forget that I’ve been doing this stuff so long,” said Matt DiBenedetto, after being announced as the full-time driver of the No. 25 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Chevrolet Silverado for 2022.

The team, Rackley W.A.R, is in its second year.

“We are honored to have Matt DiBenedetto join Rackley W.A.R. full-time for the 2022 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series season driving the number 25 Chevrolet. We feel that by teaming Matt up with experienced crew chief Chad Kendrick, we will be competing for multiple wins and be competitive at all racetracks. I truly believe that the NASCAR Truck Series is the most exciting, and I am looking forward to getting the season started,” said the team owner.

DiBenedetto stated, “I can honestly say that, at this time in my career, I am truly excited. I feel like I’m going back to my roots in a lot of ways. I love the feeling you immediately get when you talk to Curtis, Willie, Chad, all the guys around this organization. They are all hard-core racers, and everyone is extremely dedicated.  This opportunity is a blessing to me and I’m really excited to do my part in taking this team to the next level.”

Another co-owner of the team stated, “We have a lot of great folks around this race shop and in a lot of other places. This will be our second year having an alliance with GMS Racing, and we’re really appreciative of all they do for us. We will continue our manufacturer alliance with GM and Chevrolet, and we’re super thankful for the resources they make available to us. This series is for sure the most competitive out there right now, and we are really fortunate to have excellent partners. We anticipate a big year as we look forward to our first win.”

Watch for the first truck race of the season on February 18, 2022, in Daytona.
