JGL Racing is an American professional team that currently competes in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. The team is based in Denver, North Carolina. The team currently fields the No. 24 Toyota Camry full-time for part-time drivers: Scott Lagasse Jr., Corey LaJoie, Drew Herring, Jeb Burton, and Dylan Lupton and the No. 28 Camry full-time for Dakoda Armstrong.
Former partners James Whitener and Gregg Mixon of GIC-Mixon Motorsports announced the formation of a new team on January 20, 2014 with James Whitener as the owner and Gregg Mixon as the General Manager. Veteran driver Carl Long serves as the team's competition director, with the team operating out of a Statesville race shop. . During its opening season in 2014, JGL Racing used second-hand Dodge Challengers (Dodge left the sport after 2012) purchased from Team Penske and engines also leased from PENSKE, as other teams have done in the Nationwide Series such as Vision Racing. Because of this, the schemes of the 28 and 93 still resembled those of Penske's No. 12 Alliance Truck Parts and No. 22 Discount Tire cars.
The team expanded to three teams in 2015, and switched to Toyota, using engines from an alliance with TriStar Motorsports' PME Engines. The cars are now built and wrapped in JGL Racing's shop. The paint schemes for the 26 and 28 cars were created by the JGL Graphics Shop.
In August 2015 and continuing into 2016, the team began using engines from Joe Gibbs Racing and expanded it operations to Denver, NC with two facilities.
