SS-Green Light Racing
SS-Green Light Racing is an American professional stock car racing team that competes in the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series, fielding the No. 0 Chevrolet Camaro SS primarily for Garrett Smithley and the No. 07 Chevrolet Camaro SS for Josh Bilicki. The team has a technical alliance with Richard Childress Racing.
The team is owned by former driver Bobby Dotter, who also drove for the team in numerous races when he was still driving. Dotter is currently the team's sole owner, although at various points in the team's history, businessman Ken Smith and Steve Urvan as well as Texas politician Gene Christensen were co-owners of the team with Dotter.
Green Light began competing in the Truck Series in 2000 and merged with SS Racing in 2008 during the economic downturn, as teams merging was a common thing at the time, resulting in financial success and stability. SS Racing was a team that was competing in the ASA and had previously partnered with Green Light's Truck team on various occasions, but fully merged with GLR beginning that year. The team competed in the Truck Series each year until 2017 when they decided to focus on their Xfinity program.

J. Yeley, Gray Gaulding, Natalie Decker, and Devin Jones making starts in the car.
