Add NASCAR owner to Floyd Mayweather’s resume.
The legendary boxing world champion launched The Money Team Racing recently. Along with Pit Viper, the card will debut at NASCAR’s Daytona 500 this month.
“I love fast cars and I love to compete. I know NASCAR will not be easy, but anything easy isn’t worth doing to me,” Mayweather exclaimed. “With that being said, this move into auto racing seems to be a perfect fit for the Mayweather brand.”
The Daytona 500 is set for February 20 from Daytona Beach, Florida. Kaz Grala will drive the NASCAR NextGen Chevrolet Camaro ZL1.
“It’s an honor to be behind the wheel for Floyd Mayweather’s entrance into NASCAR. It’s a really exciting time in our sport as it globalizes and reaches new audiences,” said Grala. “I know Floyd is here to win, and I absolutely feel that everyone involved in this program is capable of making that happen. We know we will need some time to grow together as a new organization, but I couldn’t be more thrilled to be a part of building this team from the ground up.”
