IndyCar News: Sam’s Club to sponsor Kyle Kirkwood at Nashville
Andretti Global, a TWG Motorsports’ team, announced today that Sam’s Club, a leading membership retail club, will serve as the primary sponsor for the No. 27 Sam’s Club Honda piloted by Kyle Kirkwood at the NTT INDYCAR SERIES season finale at Nashville Superspeedway.
Entering the high-energy world of INDYCAR racing with Andretti Global is a natural fit for Sam’s Club, as they are pioneering the future of retail by creating seamless, connected experiences, whether in the club or online. This sponsorship arrangement also underscores the mission of Sam’s Club’s Member Access Platform (MAP) to lead as the first retail experience network, providing members and advertisers with unique experiences they won’t find anywhere else.
Sam’s Club driver and five-time INDYCAR race winner Kirkwood will bring members closer to the action with special appearances, club meet and greets and exclusive behind-the-scenes content leading up to the 2025 INDYCAR season finale at Nashville Superspeedway – a track where Kirkwood delivered a strong performance during its debut on the Series calendar last season with a pole position and top-five finish for the Andretti INDYCAR team.
Kirkwood will debut the No. 27 Sam’s Club Honda on track at Nashville Superspeedway August 30-31 with hopes of securing his second career INDYCAR oval victory. The Borchetta Bourbon Music City Grand Prix will air live on FOX on Sunday, August 31, at 2:00 PM ET.
