CNC Swiss Precision Machining Joins Bilicki for NASCAR Xfinity Series Race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway Mooresville, NC (August 10, 2021) – CNC Swiss Precision Machining will join Josh Bilicki and SS Green Light Racing as a primary sponsor at this weekend’s NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. This will mark Bilicki’s third Xfinity Series start of the season, where he will also be contesting in Sunday’s NASCAR Cup Series race. CNC Swiss Precision Machining is a custom machined components manufacturer located in the suburbs of Chicago who specializes in swiss machining and manufacture of precise quality complex machined metal and plastic parts for all types of industries. CNC Swiss Precision Machining’s partnership with Bilicki stems back to 2017, when the company sponsored Josh at Michigan International Speedway in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. Since then, they have served as an associate partner of Bilicki’s at a handful of races across the Xfinity and Cup Series, and also serves as a personal partner of Bilicki’s for the entirety of the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series season. “Having CNC Swiss step up to become a primary partner of ours at the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at Indianapolis is really special to me,” says Bilicki. “I met Jay (founder and president of CNC Swiss) many years back while I was coaching at a sportscar event at Road America and he has been a great supporter and friend of mine ever since. In matter of fact, I coached Jay at a Porsche event at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 2016, just a few weeks before my first NASCAR start, and that was the first opportunity I had to turn laps on the legendary circuit, so it’s cool to see how these things come full circle. I am looking forward to giving him a great run at Indianapolis Motor Speedway! The NASCAR Xfinity Series Penzoil 150 at the Brickyard will take place on Saturday, August 14th at 3:00 PM ET and will be televised live on NBC Sports Network.

 | “To be partnered with a great Wisconsin company like Screamin’ Sicilian Pizza at such a large event means a lot to me,” says Bilicki. “Having the NASCAR Cup Series come to Road America on Fourth of July weekend is already a win, but then to have a Wisconsin based business as our primary partner is just awesome. I cannot thank everyone at Palermo’s and Screamin’ Sicilian Pizza enough for the opportunity to represent them. I have more laps here than anyone else who will be in the Cup Series field, so I am looking forward to using that to my advantage.” |
“Palermo’s is Wisconsin’s Hometown Pizza and we couldn’t think of a better partnership than to sponsor a Wisconsin driver on a Wisconsin track.” said Nick Fallucca, Chief Product & Innovation Officer for Palermo Villa. “If Josh wins the race, we want to celebrate that with our fans by offering them a free Screamin’ Sicilian Pizza. It’s a big bet, but as a family owned and operated, Wisconsin based company we wanted to put our full support behind our Wisconsin Hometown Driver.”

ORANGE, Calif. (June 1, 2021) – Pacific Coast Termite, a leading California-based termite and pest control company, has agreed to a one-race sponsorship of Josh Bilicki and Rick Ware Racing as part of a grand gesture to thank its essential workers for their work during the pandemic.
The #52 Ford Mustang will be ablaze in blue and white for the NASCAR Cup race in Sonoma on June 6, with a special message to honor the men and women at Pacific Coast Termite, who were deemed essential workers and answered an unprecedented volume of calls while families were under stay-at-home orders.
“Given the work-from-home mandate in the state last year, homeowners recognized and addressed neglected or unnoticed needs around their home,” said Dennis Wilson, co-owner of Pacific Coast Termite. “Given our company’s designation as an essential service, our employees remained on the job helping homeowners with their termite and pest control needs. We want to honor their commitment and dedication and felt there was no better way than in grand fashion sponsoring Josh in his first full-time season in the most popular motorsport in America.”
Pacific Coast Termite’s unique approach to termite control without the need of leaving or tenting the house was a welcome relief to homeowners in an already stressful situation due to the pandemic. Coupled with an unmatched customer service and protocols that far exceeded requirements, the company and its employees remained on the job putting themselves at risk.
“We can’t thank our employees enough for remaining dedicated to their trade during such trying and difficult times, putting their own well-being aside to help fellow Californians,” said James Grande, co-owner of Pacific Coast Termite. “When talking to Josh, we sensed he shared that same appreciation and was fully supportive to recognize our employees.”
Beyond the presence on Bilicki’s car during the race, the 26-year-old driver from Wisconsin will make a special appearance at Pacific Coast Termite’s Northern California headquarters in Fremont, Calif. “Dennis and James really care about their employees, so we are going to visit some of the Pacific Coast Termite team before the race,” said Bilicki. “They’ve said their employees have the same commitment to their work as I do for mine. Hopefully I can honor them with a great performance on Sunday.”
Bilicki made his NASCAR Cup Series debut in 2017 at Sonoma Raceway driving for current owner Rick Ware Racing. The following year was his first full-time season in NASCAR competition. This year marks his first full-time season in the NASCAR Cup series.

Mooresville, NC (4/14/21) - Josh Bilicki and Rick Ware Racing are set to honor the late Lennie Pond at the upcoming NASCAR Cup Series Throwback Race at Darlington Raceway on Sunday, May 9th. Bilicki’s #52 Ford Mustang, which has primary sponsorship from Insurance King, will carry Lennie Pond’s famous yellow Burger King “best darn burgers” paint scheme. Insurance King, a long time partner of Bilicki’s, offers low-cost and SR-22 auto insurance.
“It’s an honor to have the opportunity to honor the late Lennie Pond this year at Darlington,” says Bilicki. “My friends at Insurance King are always very creative with their paint schemes, so when they came to me with this idea, I was all for it. Like myself, Lennie Pond worked very hard to get to the NASCAR Cup Series and turn his passion into a career. NASCAR was built around blue-collar workers like Lennie, so naturally, I felt that this was a great tribute.”
Lennie Pond was born in Ettrick, Virginia on August 11th, 1940, just thirty miles away from Richmond Raceway. He grew up racing around his parent’s farm and eventually began racing on dirt tracks in the mid 1950s. After quickly moving through the ranks, Pond made his NASCAR Cup Series debut in 1973.
His career totals include 234 career starts, one win, 39 top fives, 88 top tens, five poles, and a best championship finish of 5th in 1976. He beat out Darrell Waltrip for rookie of the year honors in 1973. Five years later, Pond won his first career race at Talladega Superspeedway. Before retiring, Pond raced his last race on September 10, 1989 at Richmond International Raceway in the Miller High Life 400 where he finished in 11th place. Pond got to run all three track configurations at Richmond - dirt, asphalt and the current layout. Pond died on February 10th, 2016 from complications of cancer.
The NASCAR Cup Series Throwback Race at Darlington Raceway will take place on Sunday, May 9th and will be televised live on FS1 at 2:30PM ET.

Mooresville, NC (3/25/21) - Josh Bilicki is set for a new experience this weekend at Bristol Motor Speedway, as the NASCAR Cup Series will race on dirt for the first time in over fifty years. Come Friday, Bilicki will turn his first ever laps driving on dirt during the NASCAR Cup Series’ first practice session. The “unknown” feeling is not new to Bilicki, though. Having a background in road course racing, Bilicki turned his first ever laps on an oval at Phoenix Raceway in the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2016, which was something completely new for him.
“In Phoenix, I remember feeling like I was being thrown in the deep end of the pool without knowing exactly how to swim”, says Bilicki. “We didn’t practice much because we were on a budget, but we made the race and ran all of the laps and I learned a lot that weekend. This weekend’s race at Bristol reminds me of that, except I’m not sure that any driver in the field knows what to expect. The guys who came from dirt racing will definitely have an advantage, but these cars will not drive like a dirt car, so there are a lot of question marks. As a driver, it excites me but I also know there are lots of consequences for our small team if I make a mistake. Our goal for the weekend is to bring the car back as clean as we can and be there at the end. It will most likely be a chaotic race, so I’m sure the fans and sponsors will love it.”
Junction Fuels will serve as the primary sponsor on the #52 Ford Mustang at Bristol Motor Speedway. Junction Fuels is a wholesale fuel provider that began servicing the Texas Hill Country and surrounding areas more than 30 years ago. Junction Fuels has expanded their service coverage to include the entire state of Texas, along with New Mexico, Louisiana, and the Gulf Coast. Junction Fuels is the premier source in Texas for safe, affordable, and reliable fuels since 1989.
Elliott’s Custom Trailers and Carts joins Bilicki for the first time. Elliott's Custom Trailers and Carts is an authorized trailer and golf cart dealer servicing all of northern Indiana. Elliott’s Custom Trailers and Carts is a proud partner of many different dirt racers and series in the Indiana region.
Additional sponsorship for the Bristol dirt weekend will come from Crowe’s Equipment, a heavy equipment dealer located in Indiana that specializes in Caterpillar parts and equipment.
The Food City Dirt Race will take place on Sunday, March 28 at 3:30PM ET and will be televised live on FOX.

Atlanta Motor Speedway is one of my favorite tracks, so I can’t wait to get on track next weekend for 500 miles.”
“We’re excited to support Josh and Rick Ware Racing again in 2021,” says Dan Block, President of Insurance King. “We have several exciting new projects and partners that we are working on bringing to our sponsorship program, so we are looking forward to getting our 2021 partnership kicked off at Atlanta Motor Speedway next week.”
The Wounded Blue will also be featured on Bilicki’s #52 car. The Wounded Blue is the only national organization that helps officers in distress who were wounded or injured on the job. Bilicki and Insurance King promoted The Wounded Blue at several races last season, including the fall Martinsville race, where the car was painted like a cop car to honor each police officer who lost their life in 2020.
Also featured on the car will be Spider 360 electronic dart boards. Spider 360 is the originators of the soft-tip dart sport. The Spider 360 board features electronic scoring to increase the engagement focus, comradery, and entertainment.
