“We are thrilled to partner with Byrd Racing who shares an esteemed lineage in the racing world,” said Dan DeMonte of Skip Barber Racing School. “Bringing the Skip Barber Racing School brand to the massive NASCAR fan base is a great way to showcase that we offer something for everyone, from beginner enthusiasts to seasoned pro-racers.  Coupled with NASCAR’s expanded road course calendar, this provides perfect alignment with our longstanding expertise in developing drivers in the art of road racing, and we are proud to have had many of today’s top NASCAR drivers as students.”

Skip Barber will also run as the primary sponsor for the following races in the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series:

• Sonoma Raceway — June 26

“We have a growing list of drivers that have come through our ranks to go on to very successful careers in NASCAR,” said Joe Monitto, Skip Barber Racing School chief revenue officer. “Our specialty is road racing, and the opportunity to partner with Byrd Racing on the marque road races this season was a perfect fit. We are excited to have Nathan Byrd join our Formula Race Series this season, we get to apply our expertise to this young talent and look forward to working with him, James Davison and the entire Byrd Racing team.”
