Kaulig Racing just rolled out their lineup of three new spotters for the season, and they’re making sure their drivers are on board with these picks. But here’s the kicker: they’ve decided to part ways with a big name in the spotting world, Brett Griffin. Known for his work with heavy hitters like Clint Bowyer, Elliott Sadler, and Jeff Burton and being a part of Dale Earnhardt Jr‘s podcast crew, Griffin’s exit is turning heads.

As they gear up for both the Xfinity and Cup Series, Kaulig Racing is shaking things up. They’ve even swapped out AJ Allmendinger’s former spotter for a fresh face, another major change in what seemed like a solid team dynamic.

Kaulig Racing’s spotter shuffles with new and some familiar faces

Kaulig Racing is mixing it up in 2024, rolling out a trio of spotters: Joe White, Frank Deiny Jr, and Coleman Pressley. They’re set to navigate the waters for a hefty five full-time entries across NASCAR’s top two series. Brett Griffin, once the eyes in the sky for Justin Haley, found himself in the hot seat after a bit of a stir, including a tiff with Joey Logano. With Haley moving to RWR in July 2023 and Griffin stirring the pot, Kaulig decided it was time for a change.

Last season, Deiny was the man on the mic for A.J. Allmendinger, guiding him to a sweet victory at Charlotte Motor Speedway’s ROVAL in the No. 16 Chevy Camaro. Pressley, who’s been Joey Logano’s go-to guy at Team Penske, is set to reunite with Allmendinger in the Xfinity Series, bringing back their old driver-spotter magic from their JTG Daugherty Racing days.

Meanwhile, Joe White’s jumping back into the spotlight. After a stint with Bassett Racing and Bret Holmes Racing, he’s taking the reins for Kaulig in both the Cup and Xfinity Series. He’ll be teaming up with Josh Williams in the Xfinity Series and taking turns in the Cup Series’ No. 16 Camaro.

With this blend of fresh and familiar faces in the spotter’s stand, Kaulig Racing is all geared up and has even roped in some new sponsors to boot.

Kaulig Racing is gearing up for the 2024 NASCAR season with a familiar face in their corner: Celsius Essential Energy. They’re back in the game, this time as the primary sponsor for AJ Allmendinger’s stints in both the NASCAR Cup and Xfinity Series. Not only that, but Celsius is also keeping its spot as Kaulig Racing’s go-to energy drink, a partnership that’s been buzzing since 2021.

Last year, Allmendinger did make Celsius proud, clinching their first win as a primary sponsor at both the Xfinity Series at Circuit of the Americas and the Cup Series at Charlotte ROVAL. With this renewed partnership, Allmendinger’s set to hit the Daytona 500 in the #16 Celsius Camaro ZL1, and more races with Celsius in the limelight will be unveiled soon.

While there’s still some fine-tuning to be done for their Cup Series lineup and strategy for 2024, apparently Kaulig Racing has sorted out the spotter part.
