Car No. 30 history

edit

After having last fielded a team in what was then the Nationwide Series in 2008, Stanton Barrett returned to team ownership in the series, now the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, eighteen years later in 2026 when he partnered with Cope Family Racing and their No. 70 car from 2025 was renumbered to the No. 30. Cope had brought back his team in what was then the Xfinity Series in 2025 after having last competed in the series in 2016.[1]

On January 5, 2026, Argentinian Baltazar Leguizamón was announced as the team's first driver. He will share the car with Stanton Barrett,[2] as well as a rotating seat of drivers that are to be announced throughout the season. Leguizamón will drive the No. 30 car at COTA, the spring Martinsville race, and at Watkins Glen.[3] Carson Ware joined the team to compete part-time in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series.[4] He made his debut at Daytona Speedway in the season opener, finishing 19th, which marked a career-best result across NASCAR’s three national touring series. The entry list for the 2026 Bennett Transportation & Logistics 250 at Echopark Speedway revealed that Carson's brother Cody Ware would be driving the No. 30, making his first O'Reilly Series start since 2021. Austin J. Hill would drive the No. 30 at Phoenix.[5] Myatt Snider took over the No. 30 for the next three races,[6] he failed to qualify at Las Vegas, finished 33rd at Darlington, and finished 19th at Martinsville.
