Ty Dillon announced Tuesday morning that he'd make his Daytona 500 debut in 2015, driving the No. 33 Chevrolet for Circle Sport Racing.
Dillon, who competes full-time in the NASCAR XFINITY Series for Richard Childress Racing, will carry sponsorship from Cheerios and Kroger. General Mills, which continued a six-year partnership with RCR, also backs brother Austin Dillon's Sprint Cup entries through its cereal brands.
Dillon, grandson of Richard Childress, ran the first two NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races of his career last season in the No. 33. He registered a best finish of 25th in his Labor Day weekend debut at Atlanta Motor Speedway for Circle Sport, a Childress-affiliated team owned by Joe Falk.
He is a three-time winner in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and a one-time winner in the Nationwide Series, which will gain entitlement sponsorship from XFINITY starting in 2015.
He wound up fifth in the season-long Nationwide standings last year with his breakthrough victory coming at historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway in July.
