MOORESVILLE, NC, May 7, 2026 – NASCAR driver Patrick Emerling today announced that he is partnering with the Pennsylvania Army National Guard for the MillerTech Battery 250 presented by KOA O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race at Pocono Raceway on June 13. Emerling will drive the #38 of RSS Racing sporting the black and yellow colors of the Army National Guard with the tagline “Uncommon is Calling.” 

“Racing is about preparation, discipline, and teamwork – and those same qualities define our Soldiers,” said Lieutenant Strauss of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard. “The Pennsylvania Army National Guard is proud to partner with organizations that reflect those values while giving individuals the opportunity to serve right here in the Pennsylvania communities they care about most.”

The National Guard is a unique and essential element of the U.S. military. Founded in 1636 as a citizen force organized to protect families and towns from hostile attacks, today's National Guard Soldiers hold civilian jobs or attend college while maintaining their military training part-time, always ready to defend the American way of life in the event of an emergency.

In the Pennsylvania Army National Guard, serve part-time and learn real-world skills, while you live, train and serve right here in Pennsylvania. Uncommon is calling.

“I’m honored to represent the Pennsylvania Army National Guard,” said Emerling. “Serving in the Army National Guard is a unique way for people to serve their community and have incredible experiences without having to leave home. I greatly appreciate everyone who volunteers to serve this country.”

Teslong will join the Pennsylvania Army National Guard as an associate marketing partner. Teslong’s product line includes industrial endoscopes, otoscopes, rifle borescopes and thermal cameras.

The MillerTech Battery 250 presented by KOA (100 laps | 250 miles) is the 17th of 33 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series races on the 2026 schedule. Practice starts on Saturday, June 13 at 10:30 a.m., followed immediately by qualifying.

MOORESVILLE, NC, April 14, 2026 – NASCAR driver Patrick Emerling today announced that Teslong is joining him for a multi-race partnership in both the O’Reilly Auto Parts Series and the Craftsman Truck Series starting with the spring O’Reilly Auto Parts race at Talladega Superspeedway.

"We’re incredibly excited to announce Teslong’s new brand partnership with the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series (NOAPS) and the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series (NCTS), alongside driver Patrick Emerling and his race team. This collaboration reflects our deepening commitment to the automotive industry and aligns us with teams and drivers who demand precision, reliability, and performance — the same standards that define Teslong products,” said James Sun, CEO of Teslong. 

Teslong was founded in 2010, as a manufacturer of innovative digital products that solve problems for consumers. Since then, they have expanded their product range utilizing a R&D center with more than 40 engineers, designers, and developers. Teslong is very proud of their state-of-the-art assembly lines, rapid R&D, and innovative products. Their product line started with industrial endoscopes followed by otoscopes, but has expanded with rifle borescopes, and now their infrared sensor products in their thermal camera line. Their customers include HVAC specialists, construction workers, engineers, mechanics, plumbers, hunters, gunsmiths, military veterans, local and state law enforcement, and more.

“As we expand our footprint in motorsports, we’re also entering an exciting new chapter as a company,” said Sun. “The launch of our all-new power tool line represents a significant evolution for Teslong, adding an entirely new suite of products designed to deliver more complete, solution-based offerings to our customers. By expanding beyond our trusted inspection cameras, thermal imaging cameras, and borescopes, we’re building a more comprehensive product portfolio that empowers professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike with the tools they need — from diagnostics to real-world applications — all backed by the performance and reliability Teslong is known for."

“I’m really excited to partner with Teslong,” said Emerling. “My modified team has been using their products – specifically the borescopes and thermal cameras – this season and we’ve been very impressed with them. We’re looking forward to the release of their new power tool line.”

USNEPower & Patrick Emerling Team Up to Launch USNEPower Motorsports

10/25/2025

SEEKONK, Mass. (Oct. 25, 2025) -- USNEPower Principal David J. Miller Jr. and NASCAR driver Patrick Emerling today announced the formation of USNEPower Motorsports, marking a new era for USNEPower’s racing involvement and a bold next step in its marketing strategy. The announcement and car unveiling took place at Seekonk Speedway before the USNEPower Haunted Hundred XL, part of the Monaco Modified Series.

USNEPower Motorsports will field the No. 1 car for Patrick Emerling on the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour and select Monaco Modified Series races in 2026, representing a transition from multiple team sponsorships to a more strategic focus on ownership and select partnerships.

“This is the natural evolution of our relationship with the sport,” said Miller, principal of USNEPower and owner of USNEPower Motorsports. “We’ve sponsored dozens of teams over the years, but team ownership allows us to tell a more focused story about who we are – an organization built on reliability, precision, and showing up when it matters most. Motorsports is the perfect reflection of that.”

“USNEPower has long been one of the most visible names in Modified racing,” said Emerling. “They’ve supported so many racers and events, so bringing them in as an ownership partner feels like the right move. The No. 1 car paired with the company known for ‘One Call Does It All’—it just fits.”

Since its first sponsorship in 2017 with Rowan Pennink in Michael Boehler’s “Ole Blue” No. 3, USNEPower’s involvement in motorsports has always been about relationships—first as fans, then as partners, and now as team owners.

After supporting more than 27 drivers and six race events in 2025, USNEPower will strategically realign in 2026 to focus on team ownership and a smaller number of relationships, which will be highlighted by:
• Patrick Emerling – Driver for the USNEPower Motorsports-owned No. 1 (NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour / Monaco Modified Series)
• Tom Abele Jr. – USNEPower Super Late Model (Oxford Plains Speedway)
• John-Michael Shenette – Whelen Modified Tour and Open Events
• Timmy Solomito – Whelen Modified Tour


USNEPower will also return as the title sponsor of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Series Duel at the Dog 200 at Monadnock Speedway (NH) and the USNEPower Haunted Hundred XL at Seekonk Speedway (MA) in the 2026 Monaco Modified Series season.

Team ownership marks a decisive shift from pure brand visibility to deeper customer engagement and relationship-building. USNEPower’s Motorsports initiative mirrors its own work culture – meticulous planning, flawless execution, and rapid response under pressure.

"When fans see USNEPower on a car, we want them to know why,” added Miller. “We’re the first call for factory-authorized emergency repair and preventive maintenance of electrical equipment. Racing gives us a powerful way to demonstrate that precision, speed, and reliability aren’t just part of our work – they’re who we are.”

Emerling, who earned two wins, eight top-five finishes, and 10 top-tens in the 2025 NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour season, looks ahead to 2026 with high expectations.

“We’ve been close to a championship,” said Emerling. “With USNEPower Motorsports behind us, I believe we have everything it takes to finish the job.”

MOORESVILLE, NC, April 22, 2025 – Patrick Emerling today announced a new partnership with portable air conditioning company ZERO BREEZE for the 2025 NASCAR Xfinity Series. Emerling will utilize ZERO BREEZE’s Mark 3 Portable Air Conditioner at the track throughout the rest of the season to keep cool.

“I’m so stoked to partner with ZERO BREEZE! Having a Mark 3 unit at the track each week is going to be a game-changer,” said Emerling. “The temp inside a race car can get close to 130 degrees, especially during those summer races.

ZERO BREEZE is a leading provider of portable air conditioning solutions designed to handle extreme outdoor conditions. The Mark 3 is the most advanced portable air conditioner, offering high-efficiency cooling for outdoor enthusiasts, racers, campers, and professionals in demanding environments. Known for its portability, performance, and battery-powered feature, ZERO BREEZE continues to revolutionize the way people stay cool under pressure.

"Our collaboration with Patrick is not only a testament to our shared commitment to excellence, but also an exciting opportunity to bring the power of cooling technology to the racetrack,” said Max Ma, the founder of ZERO BREEZE. “The Mark 3 portable AC is a true innovation in outdoor technology, offering both drivers and spectators a chance to enjoy the same level of cooling comfort. While the driver uses the Mark 3 on the track, spectators can experience that same cool comfort at the raceway's camping areas, sharing in the speed, excitement, and coolness."

To launch the partnership, ZERO BREEZE is sending two lucky fans to Talladega Superspeedway for the Ag-Pro 300 NASCAR Xfinity Series race on April 26. Fans can also get a special discount by subscribing to ZERO BREEZE by April 30.

Patrick Emerling, Fleetworks Racing To Honor Geoffrey Bodine, Dick Armstrong at Thompson

No. 1 Will Carry a Tribute Scheme To The Big Red Machine For Three NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Events

When the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour visits Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park in 2025, race fans will have the opportunity to see a special tribute scheme hit the track. Patrick Emerling, driver of the No. 1 Fleetworks Inc. Modified, will carry a special tribute scheme, throwing back to Geoffrey Bodine’s No. 1 Big Red Machine owned by Dick Armstrong. The scheme will be on the track for all three NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour races.

The Whelen Modified Tour will visit Thompson on April 5, August 6 and October 12. All events will air live on FloRacing.TV.

Emerling won the opener of the 2025 NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour season at New Smyrna Speedway and also won three of five Tour-Type Modified events and the championship during the World Series week. He finished second in the championship standings in 2024 on the Whelen Modified Tour on the heels of three race wins in the debut year for the team.

“It’s an honor to be able to carry this scheme,” Emerling said. “Geoffrey was a true, hard-nosed Modified racer, who raced in a time where they ran multiple races per week. To be able to have his colors on the Fleetworks No. 1 is special to our team and we hope the fans will enjoy it. We’re looking forward to getting to Thompson and hoping to keep our momentum rolling.”

Bodine, who had 18 career NASCAR Cup Series wins, may be most well-known for taking the Hendrick Motorsports No. 5 to Victory Lane at Martinsville Speedway in 1984. Driving for Rick Hendrick, Bodine captured victory during a time where Hendrick was considering shutting down the team. The win helped propel Hendrick into the future, now with 14 Cup Series championships and over 200 wins.  

Outside of the NASCAR Cup Series, though - Bodine cut his teeth racing Modifieds at the short-tracks. Bodine competed in arguably the toughest era of Modified racing - racing against names like Richie Evans, Jimmy Spencer, Jerry Cook and more. Part of Bodine’s success came with Dick Armstrong as his car owner, specifically in the No. 1 Big Red Machine. Their Pinto won 55 races in one year in 1978. Bodine won countless marquee Modified events and championships, including three titles at Stafford Speedway and four of the first five runnings of the Thompson 300.
