Josh Bilicki Joins DGM Racing
Bilicki to Pilot the No. 91 for Multiple Races in 2023
LAKE WALES, Fla., (January 12, 2023) – Josh Bilicki reunites with DGM Racing for select NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS) races in 2023, starting with the season opener at Daytona International Speedway. Among the Wisconsin native’s confirmed races are Road America and the inaugural Chicago Street Course, with other races being announced at a later date.
Zeigler Auto Group returns as Bilicki’s anchor sponsor for the 2023 NASCAR season, which will see numerous primary sponsorships across the NASCAR Cup Series (NCS) and the NXS, including his debut with DGM Racing’s No. 91 at Daytona. Carrying the Zeigler Auto Group colors in the opening NXS race at Daytona last year, Bilicki earned a ninth-place finish in his DGM Racing fielded entry, notching his first NXS Top-10 finish.
"Driving for DGM Racing and the Gosselin family at the season opener at Daytona in 2022 and scoring a top-ten finish was a highlight of my year," says Bilicki. "The entire team welcomed me with open arms, and we stayed in touch throughout the 2022 season, even when we were competitors. This felt like a very natural fit for me and my sponsors, and I am hoping to mirror our results next month at Daytona!"
Since his NASCAR debut in 2016, Bilicki has collected 12 Top-20s in 79 NXS starts. In 2021, he completed his first full-time NCS schedule, adding a 10th place finish at the 2021 Coke Zero Sugar 400 to his resumé. Bilicki will also compete in the NCS on a part-time schedule with Live Fast Motorsports this year.
“As we make changes over the off-season and prepare for Daytona, locking in a competitive lineup of drivers for our second full-time entry has been a top priority,” says DGM Racing’s owner, Mario Gosselin. “Josh has grown to be a fierce competitor and has shown continuous success over time. We’ve always enjoyed racing against Josh, and we are extremely excited to welcome him back to DGM Racing so we can pick up where we left off last February!”
Bilicki and DGM Racing will be teaming up for several other races throughout the 2023 season. In addition to Zeigler Auto Group, Insurance King, a fan-favorite sponsor known for their low-cost auto insurance, will also return for its fifth season with Bilicki. Additional races and partners will be announced in the coming weeks, as well as DGM Racing’s full roster for the No. 91.
DGM Racing named Josh Williams as the Driver of the 92 just before the holidays. Williams and Bilicki will hit the track with DGM Racing in the team’s home state to kick off the 2023 season. The Beef. It’s What For Dinner 300 is scheduled to take place Saturday, February 18, at 5:00 p.m. ET. at Daytona International Speedway. The race will be televised live on FS1.

BILICKI SET FOR LUCAS OIL CHILI BOWL NATIONALS DEBUT
Fort Worth, TX (December 28, 2022) Josh Bilicki, a regular in NASCAR’s top three series, is set to compete in his first ever dirt midget race at the historic Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals. Bilicki will drive the 7C entry for Ramco Speed Group, a Texas based dirt midget team fielding four cars at the 2023 Chili Bowl. Primary sponsorship comes from Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts, with Rich Mar Florist and The BOSS serving as associate sponsors.
 | Bilicki made his first start on dirt at the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series race at Bristol. Going from one of the largest dirt tracks in the country to the smallest is something Bilicki is excited for. "I’ve had the itch to race the Chili Bowl for many years, but this is the first year all of the pieces of the puzzle fell into place,” says Bilicki. “As someone who grew up racing on road courses and making the transition to NASCAR and paved ovals, this is something completely out of my element and comfort zone. I believe some of the best drivers come from this form of racing and I’m excited to learn all I can from this experience.” |
Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts will serve as the primary sponsor aboard Bilicki’s dirt midget. Elliott’s an authorized trailer and golf cart dealer serving all of northern Indiana. The company has deep roots in motorsports, as it’s late founder, Tony Elliott, was a very accomplished racer and one of USAC's greatest ambassadors. Tony's outgoing personality also led to great success for his Elliott's Custom Trailers business, where he sold race trailers and custom golf carts. Bilicki raced to a top-ten finish at Daytona in 2022 with Elliott’s as a primary sponsor.
Also featured on Bilicki’s car will be the Tony Elliott Foundation. Through Tony’s business, he gave back to the sport he loved so much by sponsoring drivers and events. His wife Cindy has continued these contributions both through the business and the foundation.
“The Chili Bowl Midget Nationals meant a great deal to Tony Elliott and was a big part of his racing dream,” says Cindy Elliott, president of Elliott’s Custom Trailers & Carts. “Elliott’s Custom Trailers and the Tony Elliott Foundation is proud to continue our partnership with Josh Bilicki Racing on dirt, racing for the Golden Driller. The same dream Tony had and we know he will be looking down smiling.”
Rich Mar Florist and The Builders Outlet Super Store join Bilicki for his dirt midget debut. Rich Mar Florist has been the Lehigh Valley's local florist since 1955. From small beginnings the company has grown to provide floral arrangements at events large and small. The Builder’s Outlet Super Store was founded in 2009 by Richard Bell. The BOSS has become the go-to source for flooring and fencing in DFW.
The 37th annual Chili Bowl Midget Nationals will take place on Sunday, January 8th through Saturday, January 14th on a 1/4-mile dirt oval track at the Tulsa Expo Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. With over 15,000 fans in attendance, NASCAR calls it the "biggest Midget race of the year". It is nicknamed the "Super Bowl of midget racing". All races will be broadcasted live on FloRacing.

JOSH BILICKI, SPIRE MOTORSPORTS SUPPORT UKRANIAN
HUMANITARIAN EFFORTS AT KANSAS SPEEDWAY
Initiative to Highlight Civilian and Humanitarian Needs
CONCORD, N.C. (May 10, 2022) – Josh Bilicki will carry the colors of the Ukranian flag in this weekend’s NASCAR Cup Series (NCS) AdventHealth 400 at Kansas Speedway where the driver of Spire Motorsports No. 77 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 will show his support for ongoing humanitarian efforts in Ukraine.
Bilicki will carry in the insignia of the Ukranian American Coordinating Council (UACC) on the hood of the No. 77 Chevy while the phrase Slava Ukraini (Glory to Ukraine) will be featured across the machine’s door and upper-rear quarter panels. Ukranian cities Kharikiv, Kherson, Kyiv, Mariupol and Mykolaiv will also be incorporated throughout Bilicki’s paint scheme.
The UACC is a Ukrainian-American organization founded over 50 years ago by Ukrainian men and women who fought for freedom in World War II and immigrated to the United States, becoming citizens and supporters of both countries. Today, the UACC’s focus is to provide urgent help and support for Ukrainian civilian defense units by procuring and shipping helmets and body armor to Ukraine in bulk quantities.
“In 1991 when Ukraine became independent, many believed that their dreams had finally come to fruition, showing those in Ukraine the path to true democracy,” explained Oksana Tscherepenko, VP of the UACC. “Now, as we watch the occupiers threaten Ukraine’s right to freedom and democracy, it becomes obvious that this dream is not fully realized and our men, women, children and elderly are being killed just for protecting their fundamental rights to democracy. Many civilians are defending themselves and Ukraine with little training and without proper gear or protection.
“After receiving a license from the U.S. State Department, the UACC purchased gear and received incredibly generous donations from individuals, law enforcement agencies, and state national guards, allowing us to ship an abundance of ballistic gear including helmets, vests and plates. One hundred percent of that gear is delivered to civilians in Ukraine who need it the most.”
Bilicki has made six NCS starts for Spire Motorsports in 2022, earning a season-best 16th-place finish in the March 20 Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Sunday’s AdventHealth 400 will mark the Menomonee Falls, Wis., native’s sixth start in NASCAR’s premier division at the 1.5-mile Kansas City, Kan., oval.
“As I prepare for this weekend’s race in Kansas, there are civilian men and women defending their freedom and lives on the other side of the world in Ukraine,” said Bilicki. “It’s easy for us to take our freedom for granted, which allows us to enjoy life, liberty and do what we love. The UACC’s mission is to provide support for Ukrainian civilian men and women, who often don’t have the equipment they need to protect themselves in their struggle for freedom. Our message this weekend is that we support the ongoing global humanitarian effort and provide hope to the men, women and children of Ukraine.”
The AdventHealth 400 from Kansas Speedway will be televised live on FS1 Sunday, May 15 beginning at 3 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The 13th of 36 races on the 2022 NCS schedule will be broadcast live on the Motor Racing Network and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
