IndyCar driver Conor Daly will make his NASCAR debut Aug. 25 at Road America with Roush Fenway Racing.
The announcement was made Friday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Daly is entered for the Indianapolis 500. He has made 39 IndyCar starts since 2013. He ran the full schedule the past two seasons but does not have a full-time ride in that series this season.
Daly, who races with diabetes like Ryan Reed, will be a teammate to Reed and Ty Majski. They all will be sponsored by Lilly Diabetes that weekend.
