The race, scheduled for July 5, will feature a striking patriotic paint scheme, symbolizing the values of hard work, dedication, and service. These principles resonate not only within the NASCAR community but also within Saia's own operations and corporate ethos.

Ray Ramu, Executive Vice President and Chief Customer Officer at Saia, expressed the company's pride in participating in such a significant event. "Fourth of July weekend is a time to celebrate the values that bring people together, hard work, dedication, and service," Ramu stated.
