AJ Allmendinger will return to familiar colors this weekend for the Cook Out 400 at Richmond Raceway with an extended partnership with Black’s Tire Service (BTS). Allmendinger will drive the blue and yellow No. 16 Black’s Tire Chevrolet under the lights this Saturday, August 16, and again in the Cook Out Southern 400 at Darlington Raceway on Sunday, August 31.
BTS remains a family owned and operated tire seller and wholesaler with over 70 locations in North and South Carolina. Earlier this year, BTS partnered with Kaulig Racing and Christian Eckes in the NASCAR Xfinity Series at Darlington Raceway and Rockingham Speedway, as well as with AJ Allmendinger in the NASCAR Cup Series at Martinsville Speedway.
This weekend, the No. 16 Black’s Tire Chevrolet will have the addition of the Boys and Girls Homes of North Carolina logo on the deck lid. An initiative that extends BTS belief in families supporting families, BTS is using their partnership with Kaulig Racing to continue raising awareness for the Boys and Girls homes of North Carolina and to promote the upcoming BTS Boys and Girls Homes of North Carolina Charity Golf Tournament on September 18, 2025, at the Myrtle Beach National Golf Course.
