Front Row Motorsports (FRM), established in 2004, competes in NASCAR’s Cup and Craftsman Truck Series. Founded by Bob Jenkins, FRM transitioned from a part-time venture to a full-time Cup Series team in 2005. Known for their resilience and cost-effective operations, FRM runs three Ford Mustang Dark Horse cars, including the No. 34 for Todd Gilliland and No. 38 in the Truck Series for Layne Riggs. Highlighted by Michael McDowell’s 2021 Daytona 500 win, FRM has become a formidable underdog. With its strategic focus and partnership with Ford, the team continues to grow its reputation in NASCAR’s competitive landscape.
