JR Motorsports announced that Kampgrounds of America, Inc., the world’s largest system of privately held campgrounds, will return to the organization for the 2026 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series season.
KOA will be a primary partner for one race with Connor Zilisch and the No. 1 Chevrolet, support multiple JRM Chevrolets as a full-season associate partner, and maintain a year-long partnership with Wyatt Miller, uniting motorsports and outdoor enthusiasts.
“It’s so cool to be back in the KOA Chevrolet in 2026,” Zilisch said. “I really enjoyed continuing to get to know everyone from KOA this past season and learning more about their business. KOA has been a big part of my NASCAR career from the very beginning and I am proud to wear their colors again next season.”
KOA’s renewal with JRM continues to build brand awareness and deepen the connection between motorsports fans and outdoor enthusiasts. With over 500 campgrounds across the United States and Canada, including a large number within driving distance of most major tracks on the 2026 schedule, KOA offers fans a variety of accommodation options to amplify their race weekend experience. From tent sites to amenity-packed RV sites and comfortable cabins, there’s something for every kind of adventurer.
“We are thrilled to continue our partnership with JR Motorsports,” said Toby O’Rourke, president and CEO of KOA. “Racing and camping bring people together through adventure, community, and unforgettable experiences. This collaboration connects KOA with motorsports fans in a unique way — enhancing their race weekends and inspiring them to explore the great outdoors.”
Fans can watch Zilisch and the No. 1 KOA Chevrolet take the green flag when NASCAR returns to Chicagoland Speedway on Saturday, July 4, on the CW, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio Channel 90.
