Last year, the BJ McLeod Motorsports team expanded to the Xfinity Series arena. Now, the outfit is expected to continue operations in the 2022 Xfinity season. As per a recent announcement, the team is recruiting a part-time driver, Stefan Parsons, on a full-time basis.
Over the course of his 2021 campaign, the 23-year-old has competed in nine Xfinity races for BJ McLeod. It is also worth mentioning that his best finish came in 13th place. That fine result came during the season-opening race at the Daytona International Speedway. In terms of sponsorship, Parsons will link up with Sokal Digital and Advertising and Springrates Automotive Suspension Source.
“I’m extremely grateful to have the opportunity to drive for B.J. McLeod Motorsports again next year, and full-time,” said Parsons who has made 24 career Xfinity Series starts, in a statement from the team. “We have built a ton of momentum over the last few years working together as a team and there’s a really good foundation for a strong season next year off that alone.”
