Trackhouse Racing has announced the appointment of Todd Meredith as president of racing operations, marking his return to the NASCAR Cup Series. Meredith, who previously held key roles at Joe Gibbs Racing starting in 1992, played a vital part in building that organization into a championship contender. His hiring reflects Trackhouse’s aim to strengthen its position in the Cup Series as it seeks further success.
Meredith, 56, last served as chief operating officer at Joe Gibbs Racing from 2013 to 2016. Expressing enthusiasm about rejoining NASCAR, he shared his excitement about working alongside Trackhouse Racing owner Justin Marks to build on recent achievements.
“I feel at home in NASCAR and wanted to return in some form,”
Meredith said in an official statement.
The more I talked with [team owner] Justin [Marks], the more I was excited by his vision of Trackhouse Racing. The team is very talented and quite successful, as you have seen in the last few months, but we want even more.”

“We’re thrilled to welcome someone of Todd’s caliber and experience to help guide Trackhouse from the top,”
Marks stated.
His focus on culture, strategy, quick decision making and organization will be a massive shot in the arm for this company as we navigate a pivotal growth period in the history of Trackhouse Racing.”
The team’s current competition leaders will remain in their positions but will now report directly to Meredith, while business operations, marketing, and partner relations will continue under chief revenue officer Andrew Lukanich. This structure aims at maintaining stability while allowing Meredith to focus on racing performance and strategic development.
