We recently saw Jordan Taylor, a two-time IMSA SportsCar Champion, step in to drive for Hendrick Motorsports when Chase Elliott got injured because of his snowboarding injury. He made an impressive fourth-place qualifying run at COTA, but an unfortunate spin dropped him to twenty-fourth.

Following his impressive performance for Hendrick Motorsports, Taylor has now received an opportunity from a promising NASCAR team to race in the Xfinity series at Portland.

Who will Jordan Taylor be racing for in the Xfinity Series?

Jordan Taylor has been given the opportunity to showcase his skills at Portland by Kaulig Racing. The team took to Twitter to announce that Taylor will be behind the wheel of the #10 car. As per his statement, the 24 Hours of Le Mans winner is thrilled and eagerly looking forward to this run.

As quoted by motorsport.com Taylor stated, “I am really pumped to make my first Xfinity series start with Kaulig Racing, a team that has shown it can dominate at road courses. I’ve been fortunate in my racing career to compete at so many different tracks, and I’m looking forward to checking Portland off my list.”

Owner Matt Kaulig and Team President Chris Rice are super excited about the opportunity. “Adding another driver with this much road-course expertise will be a lot of fun. Jordan impressed a lot of people in his first NASCAR start at COTA, and I can’t wait to see what he will do in his first Xfinity Series start,” added Rice. Not only that! Even the fans are excited to get another glimpse of Taylor’s brilliance on the track.

Fans Are Delighted Hearing About Jordan Taylor’s Comeback

Kaulig Racing, the defending winner of last year at Portland, has offered Jordan Taylor a chance to drive for them. With Kyle Larson’s recent victory at Darlington with Kaulig Racing, fans are quite excited for Taylor taking the wheel for the same team.

On Reddit, one fan wrote, “Taylor had a solid run in the 9 at COTA, and I would not be surprised for him to do the same in the Kaulig all-star car”.

“Another car that is capable of winning for my boy,” another said.

Some suggest that Taylor might take Kevin Harvick’s place after his retirement at the end of this season. “First the 9, now the 10. Next we’ll see him in the 11.”

Others believe that Taylor’s selection for his first Xfinity race is the best choice and are hopeful for another win for Kaulig Racing. “Got that one right! Cool!”

“Good choice! Excited to watch him”

“Great choice. Marketing genius and one incredibly talented driver! Love listening to him on the radio when he provides feedback to engineers/crew chiefs. And in the #10 again. Hope it’s blue and black”
