The team has brought Daniel Dye into the fold. He will return to the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series after signing a multi-year deal to drive the No. 32 Chevrolet Camaro. He will have Champion Container as a primary sponsor.
This deal will follow Dye making four starts for Jordan Anderson Racing to close out the 2026 season, starting with the Friday night race at Daytona International Speedway.
"This is a big one for our team," Anderson said during a press conference. "This is really where the team started back in 2018 with our Truck Series team. Our first ever race here, top 10 in the Truck Series back then.
"We went through everything back during the COVID days in '21 (with almost shutting down). That kind of launched us into where we are today. So we're excited to not only be able to announce this today, but to have (Dye's) first time behind the wheel of the 32 here at Daytona."

Dye, 22, has bounced back and forth between two national NASCAR series while competing full-time. He has run one full-time O'Reilly Series season (2025) with Kaulig Racing and two full Truck Series seasons split between GMS Racing and McAnally-Hilgemann Racing.
Dye also started the 2026 season as a full-time driver for Kaulig Racing. However, he parted ways with the team after a serving a NASCAR-mandated suspension for comments made on a livestream.
This move to bring in Dye will continue Jordan Anderson Racing's expansion efforts. The team started as a single-car operation before expanding to two full-time entries.
Last season, the team ran three cars in select races before taking that third entry full-time this year. That car, the No. 32, has featured a rotating group of drivers.
Now, that car will have one full-time driver after Jordan Anderson Racing handed out its first multi-year contract.
"The biggest thing this year is just understanding how to build that foundation," Anderson said. "It's building a race team is just like LEGO blocks. You got to make sure you put the strong foundation there.
"So how we've created the culture in the shop, the people, the resources. Thankfully, we had all that stuff last year, and this year we've been able to really refine the the resources we had."
