NASCAR's 2027 silly season is already taking shape, with two fresh driver announcements for the O'Reilly Series. Ross Chastain is set to compete in select O'Reilly Series races for JR Motorsports during the 2027 season, according to Yahoo Sports.

At the same time, Parker Retzlaff is returning to Viking Motorsports, where he will pilot the team's No. 99 car for the entire 2027 O'Reilly Series campaign, Yahoo Sports reported.

Both moves give fans an early look at how the lower-tier NASCAR grid could line up two seasons from now, with established Cup-level talent like Chastain dipping into select events alongside full-time regulars like Retzlaff building on his existing relationship with Viking Motorsports.
