GENE HAAS - 11/12/1952 -  
The team is owned by Haas Automation founder Gene Haas.  It will debut in 2025, following the closure of Stewart–Haas Racing at the conclusion of the 2024 season.  The team is based and headquartered in Kannapolis, North Carolina – roughly 10 miles north of Charlotte Motor Speedway – alongside sister team and Formula One entrant Haas F1 Team, though the two teams are separate entities. The team will operate out of the same shop Stewart–Haas Racing operated out of prior to its closure.  On May 28, 2024, it was announced that Stewart–Haas Racing would be shutting down the team's Cup and Xfinity teams following the 2024 season.  Less than a month later, on June 20, Gene Haas announced he will keep one of the team's charters and reorganize the team as Haas Factory Team, with Joe Custer as the team president.  Haas also announced the team will operate a two-car team in the Xfinity Series.  The team will continue to run Ford Mustangs with a technical alliance with RFK Racing.  In addition, the team will have technical alliances with RSS Racing and AM Racing in the Xfinity Series.  The team retains one charter from Stewart–Haas Racing and will run a full-time entry in the #41 with Cole Custer, (son of team President Joe Custer) as the driver.  In the Xfinity Series the team signed Sheldon Creed to replace Custer in the 300 car in 2025, and signed Sam Mayer to replace Riley Herbst, and renumbered the #98 car to the #41 in 2025.  We will keep track of results of both Haas' NASCAR and F1 teams here.
