It is with great honor to announce NR Night in America driver Patrick Connell to drive the #67 Toyota and Chevrolet for MC Motorsports, rejoining the team after leaving in January. Patrick Connell was on MC Motorsports NR Night team from November 2023 to January 2024. Connell since joined Beckman Motorsports but is leaving to rejoin MC Motorsports. He is currently also on the ASPHALT MEDIA and Trendler Lobbies team.

"It just seemed like the right decision after an inactive experience with other teams. We are just looking forward to cranking out results and having some fun," is what Patrick Connell had to say about the situation. Connell just announced partnership with new sponsor, Peters' Boyz Texas BBQ.

"It truly is great to have our original planned lineup for 2024 back in January back together with the addition of US Air Force Veteran Casey Bristow running select events, specifically Superspeedways, with the team. We also are looking to sign a 4th full-time driver for the team coming in April, so stay tuned for that. Connell has been working on his craft on and off the race track for the best possible rejoin to MC Motorsports," were Cmejla's comments on the deal.

Connell is signed on the NR Night in America team through May, with the expiring contract at May 31st, 2024. It is expected for him to sign a few-month extension once the contract is done.
