Marks, 41, will make his first start in a NASCAR race since 2018 when he drives the No. 41 Chevrolet for Niece Motorsports in the July 9 Truck Series race at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

Marks’ entry will be sponsored by Worldwide Express, which has relationships with Niece and Trackhouse Racing.

“I’m happy to be able to help support Niece Motorsports and thrilled to be in the colors of Worldwide Express. Their (trucks) have been fast this year so we’re going to Mid-Ohio this weekend with the idea of ​​not just have fun, but to believe that we are going to run well,” he said.

Marks drove a record-breaking 43 laps en route to his first NASCAR career victory in the Xfinity Series race on the 2.4-mile road course in August 2016.

“I know how fast Carson Hocevar was on the Sonoma road course before I had to hand the truck over to Daniel (Suárez),” he said. “I expect him to be just as good on the Mid-Ohio road course.”

Marks will make his first NASCAR National Series start since September 2018. He has six career Cup Series starts, 35 in Xfinity and 38 in trucks.

“The partnerships that Niece Motorsports has formed with Worldwide Express and Trackhouse Racing have allowed us to explore new opportunities this year and we are thrilled to have Justin in our (truck) in Mid-Ohio,” said the general manager of Niece Motorsports, Cody Efaw.

“Worldwide Express’s commitment to our race teams and NASCAR as a whole makes this all possible and we look forward to continuing to strengthen our relationship.”

Trackhouse Racing, in its second season in the Cup Series, has seen its two drivers – Suarez and Ross Chastain – take three combined wins so far this year.
