On January 8, 2024, Chris Miller and Spencer Boyd announced the formation of Freedom Racing Enterprises, a new team that will compete full-time in the Truck Series in 2024.[1] The team purchased former GMS Racing trucks, and will use the owners points from the team's 43 truck in 2023. Miller, who is the owner of Freedom Warranty, will operate the team with Boyd, who will serve as an owner/driver. Longtime NASCAR crew chief Jeff Hammond will serve as the team's general manager.[2] Freedom Warranty, Nor-Cal Equipment Rentals, Tibbett's Lumber Co., and Latitude Aero were announced as the team's primary sponsors.[3]
