February 12th, 2024 | 4:39 PM CT

Current team ASPHALT MEDIA driver and former team NR Night in America Patrick Connell has signed with MC Motorsports to join their Trendler Lobbies team through the entire duration of 2024. With this signing, Patrick Connell becomes the 1st driver signed to MCM's Trendler team that doesn't have the Cmejla last name.

Patrick Connell has had a successful career with MC Motorsports on the ASPHALT MEDIA side of things, scoring his first ASPHALT MEDIA win in his first start with the team. Connell has scored 7 Top 10 finishes in 16 starts with MCM in ASPHALT, only finishing outside of the Top 20 twice and has an average finish of 11.5. With the team he has led 7 total laps in ASPHALT races. You can see Patrick Connell's entire ASPHALT MEDIA results with MC Motorsports here.

Connell pitched the idea to Cmejla to drive the #39 in this series. This is because #39 are the MC Motorsports origins with Marty Cmejla in NR Night in America. "It was a fantastic idea by Connell," Cmejla said.

After Cmejla announced that MCM would join Trendler, it was likely Connell would follow through, in which he did. Experts expect MC Motorsports to run well in Trendler Lobbies once they debut in a week or two!
