HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. – Joe Gibbs Racing announced Monday the organization has signed with Zep to be a primary partner on two of the team’s NASCAR Cup Series Toyota Camrys.
Zep will be featured on Ty Gibbs’ No. 54 Toyota at Kansas Speedway on April 19 and on Chase Briscoe’s No. 19 Toyota at New Hampshire Motor Speedway on August 23. Zep will have associate placement on Nos. 19 and 54 Toyotas in addition to Christopher Bell’s No. 20 throughout the year.
“Zep is excited and grateful to be partnering with JGR this coming season,” said Greg Heyer, Executive Vice President of Retail Sales and Marketing. “We both have a legacy of winning products that perform, and a focus on customer satisfaction and innovation. We know that this JGR partnership will further our growth strategy focused on brand awareness, product adoption, and building a stronger, loyal customer base in all areas that we provide cleaning solutions.”

Briscoe had the best season of his five-year Cup Series career in 2025 with three wins, 15 top-five finishes, 19 top-10s, seven pole awards, and 884 laps led. He earned his way into the Championship 4 with his victory at Talladega Superspeedway and finished third in the final standings. Briscoe won back-to-back Southern 500 races at Darlington Raceway in 2024 and 2025 and earned poles at three of the four crown jewel races in 2025 (Daytona 500, Coca-Cola 600, and Brickyard 400).
“It is great to be reunited with Zep over at JGR,” Briscoe said. “I have a great relationship with those guys, and they have always been supportive of my career, so I’m excited to have them on the car this year.”
Gibbs wrapped up his third full-time season of Cup Series competition with five top-five finishes and 10 top-10s. Gibbs won NASCAR’s inaugural In-Season Challenge after five rounds of mid-summer racing. The 22-year-old also won the 2022 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series championship on the strength of seven wins.
