<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>What is Front Row Motorsports?</strong></h2>
If you think NASCAR is only ruled by bigger teams, you are mistaken. Sometimes, even smaller teams succeed in leaving a lasting impression on viewers owing to their humble beginnings and hard-fought path to glory. One of those teams is Front Row Motorsports. While it doesn't have the number or the equipment to compete with larger teams like <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/hendrick-motorsports/">Hendrick Motorsports</a> or <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/joe-gibbs-racing/">Joe Gibbs Racing</a>, this small team, reportedly with only 60 employees and often second-hand equipment, surely packs a punch.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>The History of Front Row Motorsports</strong></h2>
Front Row Motorsports reportedly started competing part-time in 2004 as Means-Jenkins Motorsports. The team, later, made its full-time debut in the Cup Series in 2005. The team is owned by Bob Jenkins.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Why is the team named Front Row Motorsports?</strong></h2>
Front Row Motorsports was originally named Means-Jenkins Motorsports, as an ode to both of its owner at the time, Jimmy Means and Bob Jenkins. Back then, in 20024, the team ran a part-time Xfinity Series schedule. However, the next year, Bob Jenkins took over the majority ownership of the team and rebranded itself into Front Row Motorsports, perhaps in a bid to express where they wanted to see their team on the grid and the standings.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Front Row Motorsports Net Worth 2024</strong></h2>
As of February 2020, according to Forbes, the team had a valuation of around $30 million. Apart from that, they also reported $14 million in winnings, $25 million in revenue. However, as of 2024, that might have increased significantly.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Front Row Motorsports Drivers</strong></h2>
Currently, the team fields two full-time and one part-time Cup drivers, Todd Gilliland driving the No. 38, Michael McDowell driving the No. 34 and Kaz Grala driving the No. 36, respectively. Apart from that, it also backs one full-time entry in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, Layne Riggs driving the No. 38.

While Todd Gilliland joined the team back in 2022, Michael McDowell became a full-time driver for Front Row Motorsports back in 2018, after having competed with the team in one race at the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/watkins-glen-international/">Watkins Glen International</a>, over a decade ago, in 2013.

Kaz Grala joined the team ahead of the 2024 season.

Apart from that, compressor manufacturer Quincy Compressor also made its NASCAR debut with the team in 2023 in a three-race primary race schedule with Todd Gilliland and the No. 38 Ford Mustang team.</span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Front Row Motorsports Major Achievements and Awards</strong></h2>
Over the years, Front Row Motorsports have steadily climbed up the ranks with wins and impressive performances. One of its most notable finishes came in 2021 when the veteran Cup Series driver Michael McDowell won the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/daytona-500/">Daytona 500</a> beating Hendrick Motorsports' <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/chase-elliott/">Chase Elliott</a> in P2 and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/richard-childress-racing/">Richard Childress Racing</a>'s <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/austin-dillon/">Austin Dillon</a> in P3.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Josh Berry Net Worth 2025</b></h2>
In his racing career, Berry has done well in late-model racing and the CARS Tour before joining the NASCAR Cup Series. According to a February 2025 report by Planet F1, his net worth is $5 Million. He is the winningest driver in CARS Tour history, and much of his worth is thought to have come from those CARS Tour successes.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Josh Berry's Career Timeline</b></h2>
At the age of eight, Josh Berry kick-started his racing career by participating in the Tennessee Karting Association. After spending a number of seasons racing go-karts, he along with his father decided to move to U.S. Legend Cars in 2006. It was in 2010 that he was asked by <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/jr-motorsports/">JR Motorsports</a> co-owner, <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dale-earnhardt-jr/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Dale Earnhardt Jr. </a>to join the JRM Late Model program.

Without hesitating, Berry went ahead with the prospect and within a year was named Late Model Most Popular Driver by Speed51.com. Ultimately, it was in 2014 that he made his NASCAR debut in the Xfinity Series at Iowa Speedway. The following year, he had a couple of top-10 finishes. However, it was in 2016 that he performed very impressively. In 24 starts then, he registered 14 victories and an additional seven top-five finishes.

He also made two starts in the ARCA Racing Series in 2018, finishing P4 and P3, at Salem Speedway and New Hampshire respectively.

Berry joined JRM full-time in 2022 after spending a partial season in 2021. Over the years, he has competed in the Truck Series, although not as frequently as in the Xfinity Series. As far as the Cup Series is concerned, the 32-year-old made his debut at Dover International Speedway in 2021 when he substituted for Justin Haley in the <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/spire-motorsports/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Spire Motorsports</a> #77 car.

Haley was sidelined due to Covid-19 protocols then. His second appearance in the Cup Series happened because of a similar scenario. This time it was <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/corey-lajoie/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Corey LaJoie</a> who was sidelined due to the pandemic protocols in 2022. However, Berry's major breakthrough came last year.

In the 2023 campaign, Berry was presented with the opportunity to replace the injured <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/chase-elliott/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Chase Elliott</a> and race for <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/hendrick-motorsports/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Hendrick Motorsports</a>. After Elliott's return, Josh Berry found another chance to represent HMS with <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alex-bowman/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Alex Bowman</a> suffering from a back injury.

Things have only gotten better for him as he joined <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/stewart-haas-racing/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Stewart-Haas Racing</a> in the Cup Series as retired 2014 Cup Series champion, <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/kevin-harvick/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Kevin Harvick</a>'s successor. There was certainly a lot of pressure on him given that he replaced the legendary racer. Accordingly, he picked 4 top-ten and 2 top-five finishes.

Yet Josh Berry's 2025 campaign has already far exceeded his earlier achievements. It has only been five races into the Cup Series season and Berry already has a victory. He picked up his first Cup Series victory at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

Over the years, Berry has been associated with a number of sponsors and endorsement deals. In December 2023, Jarrett Companies were confirmed as primary sponsors for Josh Berry for six races. Tire Pros was the sponsor for nine races in 2023. Over the years, Berry's other sponsors included LubeZone, Bass Pro Shops, and PUBG, among others.

Currently, as the No. 21 Ford driver at Wood Brothers Racing, Berry has a slew of new sponsors. One prominent sponsor is Freightliner which adorned his car for the Circuit of the Americas race. Then WBR announced a new partnership with PPG. The global leader in paints, coatings, and specialty products featured as the primary partner on the No. 21 Ford Mustang driven by Josh Berry for the Brickyard 400 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on July 27. His other sponsors include Motorcraft, Eero, and Harrison's.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Josh Berry NASCAR Career Stats</b></h2>
To date, Josh Berry has competed in 95 Xfinity Series races clinching five wins, 52 Top-10s, and four pole positions. In the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, Berry fetched 1 top-ten across 11 races.

In his NASCAR Cup Series career, Josh Berry's stats are rapidly improving. Five races into 2025, Berry owns 9 top-tens and 5 top-fives, one victory at NASCAR's topmost tier.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Josh Berry's Major Achievements and Awards</b></h2>
Josh Berry, joining JRM's Late Model program in 2010 was a turning point in his young career. In 2012, he achieved track-champion honors in the NWAAS at Motor Mile Speedway. He repeated a similar feat at Hickory Motor Speedway in 2014. The following year Berry amassed 10 victories.

It only got better in 2016 when he registered 14 wins, five of which came in the Cars Tour Late Model Stock Car series.

In 2020, Berry had an incredible run as he won 24 races on his way to winning the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series. As far as his performance in the Xfinity Series is concerned, he registered his first win in 2021 at <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nascar/martinsville-speedway/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Martinsville Speedway</a>. To date, he has five wins in 95 starts, which includes 52 top-ten finishes. Additionally, he was also crowned the 2017 CARS Late Model Stock Tour Champion.

Most recently, Josh Berry spilled gold at the Pennzil 400 race. Fending off a hard-charging Daniel Suarez, Berry cleared off the Trackhouse Racing driver on lap 254 and ran for the victory. After clinching his first-ever victory, Berry was ecstatic:<em> "Oh, man, I don’t even know what to think. Just awesome. I love this track. Las Vegas has been so good to me. So many great moments here. Just struggled in the Next Gen car here. But (crew chief) Miles (Stanley) and this whole 21 team, everybody at Wood Brothers Racing, they gave me a great car today. Just battled and battled and battled. Man, it was our day. I just can’t believe it."</em>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>How is Josh Berry related to Dale Earnhardt Jr.?</b></h2>
It is no secret how Josh Berry and Dale Earnhardt Jr share a special bond. Interestingly, the two met when they were competing in an online sim racing league called DMP Online Racing. It hardly took them to become friends. As Berry spoke to The Tennessean, he said, <em>"Dale asked me what I was doing, what I wanted to do, what my goals were in my life, with my career.? We just became friends."</em>

With time, their friendship grew stronger as Berry made it to JR Motorsports as a late-model stock car driver. In fact, he couldn't have been in more awe of their bond. He said, <em>"We have a really good relationship; we've been working together for a long time. He's always been a big supporter of me. Once he quit racing (full-time in 2017) it allowed him to really pay more attention to what I was doing. That has allowed me to get some of the opportunities that I have here [JRM] lately."</em>

<h2><b>Josh Berry joins Wood Brothers Racing in 2025</b></h2>
With Tony Stewart announcing the closure of Stewart-Haas Racing in May 2024, Josh Berry's career took a new turn. His rookie year received a blow as the 16-year-old legacy team prepared to shutter. However, Berry got his ticket to 2025 and beyond in July last year - Wood Brothers Racing roped him in on a multi-year contract as the No. 21 Ford driver. Harrison Burton had wheeled the No. 21 since 2022, clinching one victory at the 2024 Coke Zero Sugar 400.

Josh Berry had high expectations when he first joined WBR.<em> "I have a great opportunity to come in here and help be a part of getting them back to running where they want to run and where they expect to run. and I have the same expectations. I feel like that between everyone here at the Wood Brothers, between the affiliation with Team Penske and Ford, I think we have the pieces in place to be competitive. And I think where I’m at with the Next Gen car, I think we’ll be able to hit the ground running."</em>

And Berry is already delivering - he clinched the 101st Cup race victory for Wood Brothers Racing at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Many more victories are surely coming his way.

<h1 style="text-align: center">Shane van Gisbergen 2025 Net Worth, Salary, Wife And More</h1>
Shane Van Gisbergen is a New Zealand-born motorsports racing driver, who is known for his stints in various forms of the sport. Rising to prominence for his participation in Supercars Championship in Australia and New Zealand, SVG has also successfully made a mark in NASCAR. The Supercars champion came into the Cup Series in the Chicago Street Race and won on his debut. It was considered one of the greatest NASCAR debuts ever as seasoned veterans of the sport were left in the dirt on a track that did not just involve left turns.

SVG is a motorsports legend back home with three Supercars Championship titles to his name. His time in the competition has come to an end for now as he sets his sights on the biggest competition in American motorsports. He is scheduled to be a full-time driver in the series starting in 2025. In 2024, he will be taking part in selective races in the Cup Series and every single race in the Xfinity Series with Kaulig Racing.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane van Gisbergen Family and Personal Life</strong></h2>
Shane van Gisbergen was born on May 9, 1989, and raised in the capital city of New Zealand, Auckland. His parents are Robert van Gisbergen and Karen Wallace. SVG got his education at Saint Kentigern College in Auckland. He also has a sister, Lauren van Gisbergen, who is a snowboarder and an avid traveler.

From being five and pestering his father, Robert, to get him a Suzuki ATV to barely being seventeen and signing a contract to race V8 Supercars for the premier Ford team, the one constant in his life has been racing.

In his early years, he raced Quarter Midgets on speedway ovals and ATVs on natural terrain motocross tracks. After a brief but fruitful experiment with karts, he spent a year in the Formula First class thanks to a scholarship program sponsored by SpeedSport magazine in New Zealand, after which he turned his attention to asphalt.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane Van Gisbergenâ€™s Girlfriend</strong></h2>
<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nascar-news-meet-shane-van-gisbergens-girlfriend-jessica-dane/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jessica Dane</a>, the boss and co-owner of Triple Eight Racing, is romantically involved with Shane van Gisbergen. The couple's relationship was made public in 2022, but they have both opted to keep the details under wraps.

Jessica Dane is the daughter of Roland Dane, the former owner of Triple Eight Racing, who played a significant role in founding and managing the team. In addition to managing the team's commercial activities, Dane served as the team's deputy manager throughout 2023Â  Bathurst run with Craig Lowndes and Declan Fraser. The couple is not married yet and has no children. However, reports have emerged that SVG's move to the United States to pursue NASCAR competition might see Jessica Dane tag along with him.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane van Gisbergen Net Worth 2024</strong></h2>
Being the Supercars Championship winner on 3 different occasions sure has its perks, especially in the financial aspect. According to several reports, Shane van Gisbergen is said to have an estimated net worth of $7 million. As he was the Supercars champion, it is safe to assume that the Kiwi made a fairly good amount of money from racing alone. In 2015, the Daily Telegraph reported that SVG made $1 million in a year.

[caption id="attachment_1878966" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1878966 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-07-03T090056Z_506098698_20983524_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-NASCAR.jpg" alt="NASCAR driver Shane van Gisbergen" width="1920" height="1280" /> Jul 2, 2023; Chicago, Illinois, USA; NASCAR Cup Series driver Shane Van Gisbergen (91) reacts after winning the Grant Park 220 of the Chicago Street Race at Chicago Street Race.

While the official figure remains undisclosed, it is safe to assume that his yearly earnings have increased substantially and will continue to do so with NASCAR. He also makes a substantial amount of money from his sponsors and partners. Some of the biggest ones he has a deal with are Red Bull, Quad Lock, and Giltrap Group.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane van Gisbergen's career timeline</strong></h2>
Shane Van Gisbergen made his Supercars Championship debut in 2007 for Team Kiwi racing in the Jim Beam 400 at Oran Park Raceway and became the 200th driver to start a race in a V8 Supercar. He signed a long-term driver's contract with Stone Brothers Racing later that year. Before joining the prosperous Triple Eight Race Engineering team in 2011, Shane competed with Stone Brothers for five seasons until 2012. During that time, he achieved a career-high fourth-overall finish in the championship.

He has won three Supercars Championship titles in his career. In the 2016 season, he won eight races en route to winning the title, with one race remaining. After that, the Kiwi driver won 14 of the 30 races that were completed in 2021, putting up an incredible season that earned him his second Supercars Championship title. SVG outperformed his competitors in the 2022 season, winning almost 20 races and taking home the Supercars Championship for the third time.

[caption id="attachment_1875129" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1875129 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago1015427067h.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1331" /> 2nd October 2022, Auckland New Zealand Shane van Gisbergen NZL and Glen Weston , Skodia Fabia Rally 2.

PUBLICATIONxNOTxINxUK ActionPlus12432513 AndrewxCornaga[/caption]

Shane van Gisbergen has been successful in GT Racing as well. Alongside Alvaro Parente and Jonathon Webb with McLaren, Shane van Gisbergen won the 2016 Liqui Moly Bathurst 12 Hour. In addition, he placed third overall in the 2016 Intercontinental GT Challenge, won the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup in 2016, and finished second in the GTD class at the 2015 24 Hours of Daytona.

However come 2023, Shane van Gisbergen's career was headed in a different direction. His debut in NASCAR is something that will be remembered by the sport's fans for years to come. Seldom has a driver from the outside come into the Cup Series and won a race, let alone on his debut. The Kiwi showed just how good he was on a street circuit when he won the inaugural Chicago Street Race. His performance was so impressive that it earned him seats in both the Cup and the Xfinity Series. SVG also took part in the Indianapolis road course race that year, finishing P10. His Truck Series debut was underwhelming by his standards, as he only managed a P19 finish at Indy Oval.

The Kiwi will race as a full-time driver in the Xfinity Series with Kaulig Racing in 2024 and a select few races in the Cup Series for Trackhouse Racing. He will join the latter on a full-time basis in the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season.Â <em>â€œThis announcement means so many things to me. Iâ€™m proud of what I have achieved here in Australia, but Iâ€™m excited by this new chapter in my career and the opportunities that it brings,â€ </em>said van Gisbergen<em>.</em>

[caption id="attachment_1878964" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1878964 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2023-07-03T024602Z_967034783_MT1USATODAY20983581_RTRMADP_3_NASCAR-GRANT-PARK-220.jpg" alt="Shane van Gisbergen" width="1920" height="1280" /> Jul 2, 2023; Chicago, Illinois, USA; NASCAR Cup Series driver Shane Van Gisbergen (91) races along Grant Park during the Grant Park 220 of the Chicago Street Race at Chicago Street Race.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane Van Gisbergen Partnerships and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Shane Van Gisbergen's addition to NASCAR is unique for a lot of reasons. Besides being the first New Zealander to win a race in the Cup Series, SVG is also the first driver in six decades of the sport, who won his debut race. However, Shane Van Gisbergen looks toward making a full-time debut in the Xfinity Series, he is also bringing in a ray of hope in the form of a possible Red Bull return after the sponsor left NASCAR over a decade ago in 2011.

<a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/nascar-news-red-bull-speculated-to-make-nascar-return-with-shane-van-gisbergen-as-justin-marks-teases-new-alliance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rumors of the sponsor's comeback surfaced on social media</a> after Trackhouse Racing team boss, Justin Marks, uploaded an Instagram Story in January 2024, which showed SVG signing into the team. What irked fan's interest was how Red Bull was tagged in the Story besides other stakeholders. Given that SVG has been a part of Red Bull Racing Australia since 2016, speculations were rife that the sponsor would be willing to cross over to NASCAR again alongside the driver.

As for confirmed sponsors, automotive accessories manufacturer WeatherTech will be serving as a primary sponsor for SVG in majority of his Cup and Xfinity Series races in 2024. Fast-food chain company Wendy's is also set to feature in Shane van Gisbergen car as a primary sponsors for select races in the Xfinity promotion.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane Van Gisbergen Career Stats</strong></h2>
Having tried his hand at different avenues of motorsports, Shane Van Gisbergen has racked up quite an impressive resume. He has competed in 508 races in the Supercars championship since 2007 and won 81 of them. With 176 podium finishes and 48 pole positions secured, SVG also clinched championship victories in 2016, 2021 and 2022.

As for his NASCAR career, the driver has competed in two Cup Series races till date: The 2023 Chicago Street Course Race and the 2023 Verizone 200 at the Brickyard. He finished P1 and P10 in the races respectively. Additionally, he also competed in a Truck Series race the same year at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park and finished P19.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Shane Van Gisbergenâ€™s Awards and Achievements</strong></h2>
Even before Shane Van Gisbergen decided to cross over into NASCAR, he was already a well-decorated motorsports athlete. He has earned several accolades throughout his motorsports career apart from becoming a 3-time Supercars Championship winner. 2023 was especially a memorable year for the driver as he was inducted into New Zealand's motorsport Hall of Fame.

Speaking of SVG's abilities behind the wheel, Wayne Christie, MotorSport New Zealand's President said, <em>"New Zealand has such a proud and rich 75+ year history in motorsport and Shane is one of the best the world has ever seen.â€ </em>The official further added, <em>â€œShaneâ€™s immense talent seems to know no bounds. Heâ€™s immediately quick in everything he drives and Iâ€™m looking forward to him continuing to take on new challenges throughout the remainder of what is already an amazing career.â€</em>

That same year, in October, SVG also clinched his third Bathurst 1000 race. Having won the race twice in 2020 and 2022, SVG is the first driver in 15 years to have secured consecutive victories in the event. Apart from that, the driver and his partner Richie Stanaway are the first ever New Zealand pair to have won the race since 1999. It is safe to say that when it comes to motorsports, Shane van Gisbergen is undoubtedly one of the best.
