According to information provided by NASCAR, teams across all three national NASCAR series have swapped owner points. Though the reasons vary based on the situation. For example, RFK Racing had to swap owner points with Rick Ware Racing as part of a charter lease agreement. Trackhouse Racing had to make some changes while updating car numbers.
The owner points updated in the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series after one organization, Kaulig Racing, left and multiple others joined. Similar situations also occurred in the Craftsman Truck Series.
