Kaulig Racing will put Josh Williams in the No. 16 for at least 3 races
Kaulig Racing has signed Josh Williams to drive the No. 16 in the NASCAR Cup Series. He’ll make his debut in the Employer Services Camaro ZL1 during the Busch Light Clash at the LA Coliseum.
Williams will also race full-time in the NASCAR Xfinity Series for Kaulig Racing. Last season, he ran a full Xfinity schedule with DGM Racing.
Beyond The Clash, Williams is set to race the No. 16 car at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Feb. 25. More events with Kaulig Racing have yet to be announced.
Williams has three previous starts in the NASCAR Cup Series all of which came with Live Fast Motorsports. He has a best finish of 25th which he claimed in the Bristol Dirt Race and again on the Indy Road Course.

Josh Williams comments
“Getting another opportunity in the Cup Series is humbling, especially with a team like Kaulig Racing,” Williams said.
“I’ve been spending time in the sim with Team Chevy, and that’s been a huge help in getting comfortable and acclimated to the L.A. Coliseum. Short track racing is my background, and it doesn’t get much shorter than at The Clash. I’m ready for the challenge.”
Chris Rice comments
“Josh has impressed us at Kaulig Racing with how quickly he’s gotten up to speed in sim testing, so we knew we needed to work together to get him in the No. 16 Cup car in Los Angeles,” team president Chris Rice said.
“Alloy Employer Services’ enthusiasm to get involved with our Cup and Xfinity programs has made it easy to give this the green light, and we’re hopeful that there will be a handful of Cup starts with Josh, Alloy Employer Services, and Kaulig Racing this season.”

“We are excited to embark on this new chapter of racing with Josh Williams as he starts this season with Kaulig Racing,” said Alloy Employer Services CMO Chris Estey.
“Josh has been a big part of Alloy over the last four seasons, and we can already tell that Kaulig Racing will be a big part of Josh. To say we are excited to see what’s next is an understatement! Alloy and our partners can’t wait to experience the Clash at the Coliseum this Sunday.”
“We’re anticipating great things this season, and from everything we’ve heard recently, fans are just as excited as we are to see what unfolds in 2024.”
