Alpha Prime Racing partners with Ford for 2027 NASCAR O'Reilly season

Alpha Prime Racing has partnered with Ford for the 2027 NASCAR O Reilly Auto Parts Series season. The team will compete with Ford Mustangs under the No. 44 and No. 45 entries, driven by Brennan Poole and Lavar Scott. Alpha Prime's co-owners include Tommy Joe Martins, Caesar Bacarella, and Craig Martins, with Jusan Hamilton serving as the team president.

Poole currently holds a 17th position in the driver standings, while rookie Scott is 26th. The team has previously fielded a third entry, the No. 4 car. Historically, Alpha Prime has not had a full-time presence in NASCAR, but plans to gradually introduce Ford equipment throughout the 2026 season. The current NASCAR field features only six full-time Toyota teams, leaving Chevrolet with a significant majority of full-time entries.
