Performance parts supplier Granatelli Motor Sports (GMS) has announced a new marketing and sponsorship agreement with the No. 67 car of Kylie Glick Racing, uniting one of motorsports’ most storied families with one of its brightest young rising stars.
The 15-year-old Northern California native is a fourth-generation racer and the first female in her family to compete, carrying forward a proud motorsports tradition while blazing a trail of her own, according to a press release announcing the partnership. Competing in Late Model stock cars—a developmental form of NASCAR-style racing—Glick has already captured victories, demonstrating a competitive maturity well beyond her years.
Glick’s ultimate goal is to climb the ranks and compete in the NASCAR Cup Series. For Granatelli Motor Sports, the partnership represents a natural alignment of heritage, talent and vision, according to the release.
“Kylie is just a one-in-a-million driver find, and we could not be happier to create what could be a new lifelong association,” said J.R. Granatelli, team principal of Granatelli Motor Sports. “Her determination, poise and natural race craft remind us of the great young talents we’ve seen emerge over the decades. We’re excited to support her journey and help guide her path to the highest levels of the sport.”
FEMALE RACERS ON THE RISE
The partnership also reflects a powerful and timely narrative within motorsports—the rise of women competing and thriving in a traditionally male-dominated arena. Glick’s emergence represents a broader evolution within the sport, the release noted.
“This association is a dream come true for me as I begin my fledgling racing career,” said Glick. “I mean, who better to have as mentors than the Granatelli family? They bring strong marketing prowess and driving tips if I ever need them. To be connected with a family that has meant so much to racing history is incredibly special.”
From a marketing standpoint, the combined social media presence of Granatelli Motor Sports and Kylie Glick Racing creates a dynamic platform that reaches an ideal demographic of young motorsports fans, performance enthusiasts and next-generation consumers. Together, the two brands will collaborate on digital campaigns, fan engagement initiatives and strategic sponsor activations designed to maximize visibility both on and off the track.
In a parallel announcement, Jojo Granatelli, son of J.R. Granatelli, will carry the Calibur Automotive logo on his 2026 NHRA Pro Mod drag racing effort, further strengthening the marketing collaboration and cross-platform brand activation between the organizations.
For more than 80 years, the Granatelli name has been synonymous with innovation and excellence in motorsports. The family’s deep-rooted racing legacy includes historic connections with icons such as the Andretti and Petty families. From Indianapolis to drag strips across the country, the Granatelli brand has stood for performance, engineering excellence and competitive grit.
