Chevrolet Accessories Extends Support as Primary Sponsor of DGM x JIM’s No. 91
Lake Wales, Fla., (April 21, 2025) – DGM Racing and Jesse Iwuji Motorsports announced today that Jesse Iwuji will pilot the No. 91 Chevrolet at Talladega Superspeedway with support from Chevrolet Accessories, the eRacing Association, and Lincoln Electric. This will mark Iwuji’s first NASCAR Xfinity Series (NXS) start since 2023, and his first time shifting from co-owner to driver with the DGM x JIM alliance. A patriotic red, white, and blue paint scheme will adorn the U.S. Naval Officer’s Chevrolet Accessories No. 91, alongside the American Veterans Center’s National Memorial Day Parade logo, to celebrate its 20-year anniversary hosting the parade in Washington D.C.
The National Memorial Day Parade, proudly featured on the door of Iwuji’s Chevrolet, pays tribute to the men and women who’ve made the ultimate sacrifice serving and protecting our great nation. As the largest Memorial Day event, it attracts 300,000 spectators annually, with more than 10,000 participants, consisting of veteran units and marching bands from across the country. For the 3rd time, Iwuji will participate in the prestigious parade and is planning to bring one of DGM x JIM’s NXS cars to Washington D.C.
Iwuji’s love for Chevrolet began while serving active duty in the U.S. Navy. He worked for opportunities to get into cars and motorsports and saved up enough money to buy a few Corvettes of his own.
“The DGM x JIM team has excellent drivers whom I enjoy cheering on and learning from,” shared Iwuji, driver of the No. 91 Chevrolet. “I must admit, however, I’ve been looking forward to getting back behind the wheel and I have stayed ready for when an opportunity would present itself. It’s amazing to get back at such a storied track like Talladega Superspeedway where anything can happen. I’m beyond thankful for our partnership between Chevrolet and DGM x JIM, and all the other folks who have been amazing throughout this journey.”
“This weekend our goal is to take one more step forward with the program,” Iwuji continues. “It means the world to me to have Chevrolet Accessories on board as I make my first start with Mario Gosselin and the DGM x JIM team. Chevrolet has been with me almost every step of my racing career; their belief in me and their continued support is a great reminder of how hard I’ve worked for the opportunity to be back at the track and live out my racing dreams. I can’t thank my team and partners enough for pushing me to the next steps.”
Lincoln Electric and the eRacing Association will be featured as associates on the Chevrolet Accessories No. 91. While Lincoln Electric’s equipment plays a vital role in the preparation and performance of DGM x JIM’s Chevrolets, eRacing Association is crucial to Iwuji’s training and preparation for races. eRacing Association’s simulation racing has become a valuable resource that many drivers use to prepare, just as service members do when they’re training to fly fighter jets and operate other military equipment.
“We’re really looking forward to Jesse’s debut with DGM x JIM at Talladega Superspeedway,” Mario Gosselin, Owner of DGM Racing states. “Joining forces with Jesse Iwuji Motorsports and working with Jesse has been a seamless fit for our organization. Thanks to the support from great partners like Chevrolet Accessories and Lincoln Electric, we’re proud to bring this special patriotic car design to the track and join Jesse in the National Memorial Day Parade in Washington D.C. Jesse’s service and commitment to our country is inspiring and it’s humbling to join him in honoring and remembering our fallen troops.”
The National Memorial Day Parade will take place in Washington D.C. and will air live on YouTube and American Forces Network at 2:00 p.m. ET on Monday, May 26. It will air on ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX stations nationwide throughout all of June.
Tune-In Information NASCAR’s Ag-Pro 300 at Talladega Superspeedway is scheduled for Saturday, April 26, at 4:00 p.m. ET. All NXS races are broadcast live on The CW, practices and qualifying can be streamed on The CW App.
