NASCAR Cup Series Clash At The Coliseum Entry List: Dates, Event Times At Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum

Among the offseason driver changes, Kaz Grala hopes he finally found a home.

After bouncing around the NASCAR National Series and toiling in the ARCA Menards Series 2014, Grala is preparing to settle into a 25-event schedule with Rick Ware Racing’s second machine.

“Kaz Grala is a talented and tenacious driver who brings a lot to our race team,” Rick Ware, owner of Rick Ware Racing, said in a team release. “He has an incredible work ethic and leverages every opportunity to its full potential. He’s an asset inside and outside of the car who will help make our program better.”

While his No. 15 Ford is not scheduled to compete in the Daytona 500, Grala’s first points race is projected to be Feb. 25 at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Credited with a 2017 Truck Series win after starting from the pole at Daytona, Grala recorded two top-10 Cup finishes in seven starts (2020-22).

Grala will look to use Saturday’s heat races as an opportunity to gain competitive familiarity with his new teammates.

Boston native @KazGrala will run the bulk of the 2024 #NASCAR Cup season with @RickWareRacing.

Kaz will be competing in 25 races, starting at the L.A. Coliseum. We had a chance to chat with Kaz before heading out to LA.
