Kelley Earnhardt Miller, co-owner and CEO of JR Motorsports, confirmed that Rajah Caruth will return to the organization for the full 2027 O’Reilly Auto Parts Series season during an appearance on SiriusXM NASCAR Radio’s “The Morning Drive.”
Caruth, who made The Chase presented by Mobil 1 in his first full season in the series, will pilot the No. 88 Chevrolet for the full season. He had split time between JR Motorsports and Jordan Anderson Bommarito Autosport in 2026.
“Rajah is back in the 88 full time,” Earnhardt Miller said. “We’re going to have full-time cars, so it’s going to be an interesting season for JRM.
“Super exciting. He deserves to be here another year.”
Caruth ranks 12th out of the 12 Chase drivers entering the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. He finished runner-up to JRM teammate Carson Kvapil at Iowa Speedway, scoring an additional top five at Rockingham Speedway in early April.
