HARRISBURG, N.C. (May 14, 2026) – Hyak Motorsports is proud to announce San Diego’s first Native American-owned casino, Sycuan Casino Resort, as the primary sponsor of the No. 47 Chevrolet. Competing in the inaugural NASCAR San Diego Weekend, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. will take the wheel for the team on Sunday, June 21.
This landmark event will take place on the streets surrounding Naval Base Coronado, bringing NASCAR to one of the most iconic military locations in the country during the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States.
“We’re proud to partner with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and participate in the inaugural NASCAR weekend in San Diego,” said Chairman Cody Martinez. “Together we’re bringing a Sycuan race car to the track, creating an exciting opportunity to connect with our team members, guests, racing fans and the San Diego community.”
This partnership brings together two brands ready to make an impact during one of the most anticipated events on the NASCAR calendar. With Stenhouse, the No. 47 Sycuan Casino Resort Chevrolet will debut a bold look as the team competes in the San Diego NASCAR Cup Series.
“We’re excited to welcome Sycuan Casino Resort to the Hyak Motorsports family for the inaugural San Diego race. Having a partner with such a strong connection to the San Diego community makes this weekend even more special, especially as the city celebrates the 250th anniversary of the United States,” said Stenhouse. “Racing on Naval Base Coronado is going to be a unique experience for everyone, and I’m looking forward to representing Sycuan Casino Resort on and off the track in front of a great crowd.”
As the official partner of Stenhouse, Sycuan Casino Resort brings a strong presence rooted in its history and connection to the region. Located in El Cajon, Sycuan Casino Resort is owned by the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation and has grown from a humble bingo hall into a premier entertainment and hospitality destination. With their spirit of giving back, Sycuan continues to support the growth of the community.
This partnership was brokered with the support of Meridien Sports, a full-service sports marketing, entertainment, and brand agency based in Charlotte, North Carolina.
