Since Justin Marks and Trackhouse Racing first joined the NASCAR Cup Series in 2021, the forward-thinking organization hasn't been afraid to challenge the status quo when it comes to the norms of modern-day NASCAR ownership, with unique initiative such as PROJECT91.
“If the day doesn’t come when finally somebody goes, ‘We’re done here, we’ve taken as long as we need’, then it’ll never come. The negotiation will never end,” Marks added. “So, me personally, as we continued to have the conversations, I was ready and anticipating the day that it came where NASCAR said ‘This is it, we’re done. We’ve addressed all these issues, you know where we won’t move, we’ve moved on the things that you want us to.
"At the end of the day, the agreement is one that I can build a business around and that we can embark on the future, embrace what it is and everything in it and go ahead."When pressed on the issue, Marks shrugged off the claims that teams were 'forced' or 'coerced' into signing this version of the agreement: "I think everybody can interpret it in their own way," he said.
