Along with being a NASCAR driver, Hill is also a NASCAR team owner. He co-owns Hill Motorsports with his brother, Tyler Hill, and the team competes part-time in the Truck Series.

Before Sunday’s race, the last three races Hill competed in were at Darlington. He finished 35th in 2024 and 2025 and earned a P37 finish earlier this year.

Pinnacle Mortgage Corporation was the primary sponsor of Hill and the No. 66 Ford. “Pinnacle Mortgage Corporation is honored to be part of this extraordinary event,” Kurt W. Strandson, President & CEO of Pinnacle Mortgage Corporation, said in a press release last week. “Sponsoring the No. 66 car during Memorial Day weekend gives us the opportunity to celebrate the spirit of perseverance, teamwork, and patriotism while paying tribute to America’s fallen heroes and veterans.”

“Some of our best runs at Charlotte have come with Timmy behind the wheel,” Garage 66 co-owner Carl Long said. “We had a very stable car last year, so we should have a good starting point for our setup. This is our first race with the all-new electrical system mandated by NASCAR, so we are working hard to make sure we have no issues with it rolling into the weekend.”
