GMS Racing
GMS Racing was an American professional stock car racing team that competed in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, ARCA Menards Series and the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
GMS Racing previously competed in the NASCAR Xfinity Series from 2016 to 2019 and in the ARCA Menards Series from 2011 to 2015 and again from 2019 to 2022. The team had a driver development program, Drivers Edge Development, operated in conjunction with JR Motorsports.
Owner Maurice J. Gallagher Jr. is the chairman and CEO of Allegiant Travel Company, which intermittently sponsored the team through its Allegiant Air brand.
On August 23, 2023, the team announced that it would cease operations at the end of the 2023 racing season, along with GMS Fabrication, a separate entity affiliated with the team.
Before forming his own team, Maurice Gallagher was involved in NASCAR with local Las Vegas driver and friend Spencer Clark's team, which competed in the NASCAR Busch East Series and Busch Series until Clark's unexpected death in 2006.
GMS Racing, initially known as Gallagher Motorsports, was formed in 2011 when they entered ARCA competition. The team expanded operations into the Camping World Truck Series in 2013, and later entered the Xfinity Series in 2016. The team was originally based in Charlotte, North Carolina, occupying the former BAM Racing shop. They later relocated, and BK Racing took over their previous facility.
In 2014, GMS Racing acquired the assets of Richard Childress Racing's Truck Series program and entered into a technical alliance with the organization. In 2015, former crew chief Mike Beam became competition director, and both Richard Childress Racing and Chevrolet increased their technical support. That same year, the team relocated to Statesville, North Carolina, to a facility previously used by Evernham Motorsports and later Richard Petty Motorsports. The facility had been vacant since 2010.
GMS Racing also adopted a number font previously used by Braun Racing and Turner Scott Motorsports. Starting in 2016, the No. 21 team in the Xfinity Series alternated between its usual number style and the font used by Wood Brothers Racing. In early 2017, GMS Racing formed an alliance with Halmar Friesen Racing, which was later expanded in August of the same year.
