Tommy Joe Martins told Michael Carey of TobyChristie.com that Alpha Prime Racing will run multiple cars in select Xfinity Series races in 2022.
The team will put an additional emphasis on superspeedway and road courses. Earlier this month, the team announced Andy Lally would likely compete in all six road course events. In the past, Caesar Bacarella, co-owner of Alpha Prime Racing, has ran the majority of superspeedway races for DGM Racing.
“We are at least planning on running two cars for some of the schedule,” Martins said. “How many races that is, I’m not sure. As of right now, the [superspeedways] at Daytona and Talladega, we are planning on running two cars. How the rest of it shapes up is dependent on those other two things. What races does everyone need from a sponsorship standpoint, how do we line that up.
“I’m thinking with the second car it’s going to be somewhere around six to eight races. If it’s more than that, I would be very surprised. Right now, it’s looking like it’s going to be around that. I would look for us to bring two to some of the road courses and some of the [superspeedways].”
Martins and Rajah Caruth are also confirmed to run a partial schedule for the race team.

Martins said it will all come down to a driver-specific needs when it comes to fulfill sponsorship obligations. #NASCAR pic.twitter.com/clahntxgMN
