Cassill Motors Sponsored Drivers
Cassill Motors is proud to sponsor local racers from the Cedar Rapids area, a tradition that spans over 30 years.
With deep roots in the racing community, we have supported a variety of racing disciplines, including stock car, dirt track, and drag racing. Our commitment to the sport and the local community is a key part of who we are. While we are a full-service automotive dealership offering used vehicles, maintenance, repair services, and financing, our passion for racing is evident both on and off the track. The Cassill family, who owns and operates Cassill Motors, shares a long-standing love for racing, with Landon Cassill representing the family’s legacy as a professional race car driver. His success in NASCAR has brought attention to the business, but Cassill Motors remains dedicated to providing top-notch customer service and supporting the community in many ways.
You can catch our sponsored drivers in action every week from May to October at Hawkeye Downs!

Josh Cassill
Josh Cassill has been around racing his entire life. He was watching his cousin on Go Karts at 4 years old!
Josh has been racing the 4 cylinder "Hornets" since 2022. While going out and winning is always his goal, he wants to race awareness to end veteran suicide. His car number is #22 - which is also the statistic for the number of veterans who take their lives every day.
"As a veteran, you never want to get a call that someone you served with took his or her life. I personally have gotten that call twice, so it means and hits home differently."
Join us in cheering on and supporting Josh (and all the veterans he races to honor and support).
