‘It Has Taken A Village’ For Cusick Motorsports Indianapolis 500 Effort As CareKeepers Elevated To Primary Partner

Former driver Anders Krohn, now a Director at Cusick Motorsports, summed up the team’s Indianapolis 500 rather succinctly.

“It has taken a village to put this together,” Krohn said.

Dreyer & Reinbold Racing and Cusick Motorsports unveiled the livery and partners of the No. 24 Chevrolet entry for the 107^th Running of the Indianapolis 500 for driver Stefan Wilson on April 19.

CareKeepers has been elevated to Primary Partner. Sierra Pacific Windows returns for a third consecutive year as the Co-Primary Partner.

The two companies will be joined by a group of 18 companies supporting the effort.

There are so many companies involved in this year’s Indy 500 entry that the painter for Dreyer & Reinbold Racing said, “I’ve never put so many logos on a race car before.”

The No. 24 Dreyer & Reinbold Racing Cusick Motorsports CareKeepers Chevrolet will make its on-track debut April 20 and 21 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during the two-day Indy 500 Open Test.

“When we founded Cusick Motorsports in 2021, we set out to make the racing industry more accessible,” Founder and CEO, Don Cusick said. “Whether you want to create incredible experiences, build meaningful relationships, or create compelling marketing campaigns, we wanted to make it more accessible.

“When I look at our beautiful race car and the 20 fantastic companies we have with us, I couldn’t be more excited about the Indy 500, and the future.”

CareKeepers and Sierra Pacific Windows are major reasons why the team has achieved tremendous sponsorship momentum and support.

“It’s been great to be a part of CareKeepers’ growth the last few months and elevating them to Primary Partner will be great for everybody involved,” Cusick said. “And having built a valuable relationship with Sierra Pacific Windows over the last three years, it’s an honor to have them back as our Co-Primary Partner.”

CareKeepers is a new national company that focuses on care and companionship, safe and reliable transportation services, medical alert devices and monitoring. It was announced as a partner in December of 2022.

Since the announcement, CareKeepers has doubled its revenue, and is already well on its way to becoming a nationwide service provider. Along with the Indianapolis 500 effort, CareKeepers has also unveiled a new logo that displays its purpose of keeping your care at home.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Cusick Motorsports and Stefan Wilson as our brand ambassador,” said Gary Tennyson, CEO of CareKeepers. “The attention CareKeepers received from our announcement a few months ago has sped our growth to becoming a national provider of care services, and we’re confident the exposure throughout the Indianapolis 500 will accelerate that even further.

“We’ve partnered with Stefan Wilson and Don Cusick with some of our other companies in the past and it’s been a win-win being part of a team with such drive and integrity. The Month of May will surely be an exciting time for the whole team.”

“Working with Cusick Motorsports, we’ve not only added sales, but also created fantastic experiences for our customers that will be remembered for a long time,” said Bob Taylor, Vice President of Business Development for Sierra Pacific Windows. “It’s the payoff that has kept us coming back year after year.
