Mack re-ups as official hauler of NASCAR
Mack Trucks has once again taken to the track as the official hauler of NASCAR.
The truck maker is contributing 11 all-new Mack Pioneer models with 76-inch high roof sleepers, beginning with the season opener Daytona 500 Feb. 11-15.
Mack has been the official hauler of NASCAR beginning with the Pinnacle in 2016, followed by the Anthem in 2018. Six Mack Anthems remain a part of the fleet.
“For nearly a decade, Mack has proudly served as the official hauler of NASCAR, and this partnership extension reinforces our shared commitment to performance, reliability and excellence,” said Jonathan Randall, president of Mack Trucks North America. “The Mack Pioneer represents the most advanced highway truck we’ve ever built, and there’s no better stage to showcase its capabilities than NASCAR’s demanding schedule.”
The Pioneer began production last year and is Mack’s most aerodynamic and fuel-efficient highway truck to date, with up to 11% better fuel economy than previous models.
“Mack Trucks has been an essential partner behind the scenes of NASCAR for nearly a decade, delivering the reliability and performance required to keep our sport moving week after week,” said Michelle Byron, executive vice president and chief partnership and licensing officer, NASCAR. “As we extend this partnership and welcome the new Mack Pioneer models into our fleet, we’re continuing to invest in best-in-class equipment that supports our industry and the demanding logistics of our season.”
The NASCAR season features 36 races over 10 months across the United States.
