RSS Racing — Team Profile
Series: O'Reilly Auto Parts Series | Manufacturer: Chevrolet Organization Tier: Mid-Tier (Independent)
2026 O'Reilly Program
RSS Racing is a family-owned operation that has fielded cars in the O'Reilly Series for more than a decade. Ryan Sieg serves as both the primary driver and an organizational anchor, making RSS one of a shrinking number of genuine owner-driver programs at the national level. The No. 39 Chevrolet runs full-time in 2026 with SciAps as the primary sponsor.

The Organization
RSS Racing was built by Sieg and his family from a grassroots operation into a consistent mid-tier national presence. Without factory technical alliance support or major corporate backing, the team's longevity is itself an achievement — maintaining a full-time program with competitive intent across many seasons on independent funding is one of the harder things to do in NASCAR's second tier.
2026 Story
Sieg opened 2026 with a third-place finish at Daytona — the kind of result that reshapes a team's season narrative immediately. Through eight races he is 14th in points with three top 10s and one top five. One DNF at Atlanta hurt, but the average finish of 17.1 from a 15.8 average starting position is a fair reflection of where the No. 39 actually lives in the current field: capable of competing for top 15 every week, able to reach the podium when circumstances align.
RSS is one of the clearest case studies in what it takes to keep an independent program alive and relevant. The Daytona podium is proof the formula still works.
