MOORESVILLE, N.C. — Anthony Alfredo will pilot the No. 78 Chevy Camaro for Live Fast Motorsports for two races in the NASCAR Cup Series this year.
Alfredo currently drives the No. 78 for BJ McLeod Motorsports in the Xfinity Series.
His first Cup Series race is set to be the Toyota Owners 400 in Richmond, Va., on April 2. The location of the second race is TBD.
“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to drive the No. 78 Chevrolet Camaro in the NASCAR Cup Series at Richmond. It is a huge opportunity for me to get experience in the Next Gen car,” Alfredo said. “We have already made major strides with the Xfinity program and I am excited to take that momentum to the Cup side.
“It wouldn’t be possible without all the great people at Live Fast, as well as our partners and supporters.”
Alfredo has already made his mark in the Xfinity Series with three top-25 finishes for BJ McLeod Motorsports. During the 2021 season, Anthony competed full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series with Front Row Motorsports and finished the season as the runner-up for the Sunoco Rookie of the Year.
“Anthony’s drive and determination is something we’ve seen stand out on our Xfinity team,” said B.J. McLeod, co-owner of BJMM. “We are excited to give him the opportunity to compete at the Cup level again and gain some experience in the Next Gen car.”
