Richard Petty Motorsports will continue its relationship with Ford Performance, sources have confirmed to Motorsport.com.
An announcement is scheduled at the team’s Mooresville, N.C. shop on Tuesday.
The organization enjoys a storied past under the guidance of seven-time NASCAR champion Richard Petty. RPM currently fields two Sprint Cup teams and an Xfinity Series program.
The foundation of RPM stems from Evernham Motorsports, which debuted in 2000. RPM evolved from the four-Dodge team from Gillett Evernham Motorsports and began making the transition to Ford at the end of the 2009 season.
Current RPM principal Andy Murstein rescued the company in November 2010 and the organization scaled down to the Nos. 43 and 9 Fords the following season. RPM has since won three Sprint Cup races.
