It appears that Go Fas Racing has locked in on Corey Lajoie as their next driver, according to Adam Stern. That lines up with the rumors that we had seen pop up over the last week.

The team will hold a press conference on Thursday to announce the move.
Matt Dibenedetto held this ride for the past two seasons. The team registered three top ten finishes during that time, including a 7th place finish in the July Daytona race in 2018. Dibenedetto will move on to Leavine Family Racing, where he will have a technical alliance with Joe Gibbs Racing.
Lajoie has spent the better part of two years racing for BK Racing and Tri-Star. He has a career best finish of 11th.
With Cole Whitt retiring from racing, Tri-Star Motorsports’ plans are still unclear for 2019.
