Trackhouse appoints former Joe Gibbs Racing executive to critical role

Following their fourth victory of the 2025 season at Sonoma Raceway, Trackhouse Racing Team has revealed that Todd Meredith began serving as the president of racing operations this week.

Meredith is a veteran of the industry, working at Joe Gibbs Racing for decades and even serving as the Chief Operating Officer for the legendary team between 2013 and 2016. 

“We’re thrilled to welcome someone of Todd’s caliber and experience to help guide Trackhouse from the top,” said Trackhouse team owner Justin Marks. “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.” 

Meredith said of his hiring: “I feel at home in NASCAR and wanted to return in some form. The more I talked with Justin, 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.”

Meredith does not replace anyone in his new role, and Marks said all business, marketing, and partner relationships will continue to operate under Chief Revenue Officer Andrew Lukanich.

The team currently fields three full-time entries in the NASCAR Cup Series with the No. 1 of Ross Chastain, the No. 88 of Shane van Gisbergen, and the No. 99 of Daniel Suarez. They have also run a fourth, open entry in a limited capacity this year. 

Suarez is set to exit the team at the end of the 2025 season, and while unofficial, the expectation is that rising star Connor Zilisch will replace him in the Cup Series.

Along with SVG’s record-matching three wins as a rookie, the organization also won a crown jewel event earlier this year with Chastain’s last-to-first victory in the Coca Cola 600.
