Garage 66 (formerly known as MBM Motorsports) will run the NASCAR Cup race at Atlanta Motor Speedway next weekend, making their sixth start of the year.

The non-charted team has used a variety of drivers including Josh Bilicki, Chad Finchum, and Casey Mears. Their best finish of the year came in the Coca-Cola 600 where Bilicki placed 33rd in the 40-car field.

But at Atlanta, David Starr will make a surprise appearance in the Cup Series, driving the No. 66 Ford. The 57-year-old has 18 starts in the Cup Series and none so far this year. However, Starr’s career also includes 268 NASCAR Xfinity Series starts, and 317 Truck Series starts.

He’s a proven winner with four victories in Trucks, placing as high as fourth in the championship in 2006. Starr has one Cup start at Atlanta back in 2011, but that was on the old configuration. But the veteran driver’s best finish in the Cup Series came in 2021 at Texas where he finished 23rd.

“EchoPark Speedway is one of the most exciting tracks on the schedule, and I’m thrilled to compete here with such an incredible group of partners,” said Starr in a release from the team. “The No. 66 looks amazing, and we’re ready to go full throttle on race day.”

The effort will be backed by WNB Factory Wings N Burgers, Roofing Georgia/NGE Decks, Coble Enterprises, and Carter’s Royal Dispos-all.
