Bayston Teams with Stenhouse Jr.-Marshall Racing for 2026

CONCORD, N.C.—Spencer Bayston is heading back to The Greatest Show on Dirt.

The Lebanon, IN native will join forces with Stenhouse Jr.-Marshall Racing for the 2026 World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series season.

The move marks a return to the tour for Bayston, who earned the 2022 Kevin Gobrecht Rookie of the Year driving for CJB Motorsports, picking up a pair of victories, 16 top fives, and 39 top 10s during his debut campaign.

The 27-year-old parted ways with Jason Meyers Racing earlier this year. Since then, he’s put together several impressive runs driving for Kevin Kozlowski and Tom and Tommy Tarlton on the west coast including nearly banking an $83,000 victory at the Dennis Roth Classic with the World of Outlaws.

“We are looking forward to getting back on the road and are extremely grateful to do it with a great group of people! Bring on 2026,” Bayston said.

Stenhouse Jr.-Marshall Racing, owned by Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Richard and Jennifer Marshall, has racked up 47 checkered flags with The Greatest Show on Dirt including 46 with Sheldon Haudenschild over the past eight seasons. Their most recent came over the weekend as Haudenschild won at Angell Park Speedway. The pairing also took home a crown jewel this year, topping Williams Grove Speedway’s National Open earlier this month.

Kyle Pruitt will operate as the team’s crew chief next year.

The team plans to begin the partnership by rolling out a second car for Bayston at The Dirt Track at Charlotte on Nov. 5-8 for World of Outlaws World Finals. For tickets, CLICK HERE.

The 2026 World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car campaign will begin at Volusia Speedway Park on Feb. 4-7 for the Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals. For tickets, CLICK HERE.
