Grant aims to secure the USAC Triple Crown, having already claimed the USAC Silver Crown title in 2020 and USAC AMSOIL Sprint Car National Championships in 2022-2023. Only eight drivers have achieved the Triple Crown: Pancho Carter, Tony Stewart, Dave Darland, J.J. Yeley, Jerry Coons Jr., Tracy Hines, Chris Windom, and Logan Seavey.
This partnership marks Grant's first team change since 2020, following four successful years with RMS Racing where he secured 12 feature wins and runner-up positions in 2022 and 2023. Notable victories include the BC39, Turkey Night Grand Prix, and Hangtown 100.
Grant continues his long-standing relationships with Hemelgarn Racing (Silver Crown) and TOPP Motorsports (sprint car), entering his ninth and eighth consecutive years respectively. The team's debut at the 2025 Chili Bowl Nationals showed promise, with Grant finishing fifth in preliminaries and 18th in the main event.
With 79 national victories and 86 total USAC wins, Grant sits just 14 wins shy of joining the exclusive 100-win club. His pursuit of the USAC National Midget title begins April 25-26 at Indiana's Kokomo Speedway for the Kokomo Grand Prix, where he'll also chase the Mike Curb USAC National Drivers Championship.
