ThorSport Racing is an American professional team that currently competes in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. The team is based on Sandusky, Ohio. Owned by Duke Thorson and his wife Rhonda, the team currently fields the No. 13 Toyota Tundra full-time for Cody Coughlin, the No. 27 Tundra full-time for Ben Rhodes, the No. 88 Tundra full-time for Matt Crafton, and the No. 98 Toyota Tundra for Grant Enfinger. On June 13th, 2016 a fire gutted the ThorSport facility in Sandusky, OH.
In 2008, ThorSport Racing makes their Nationwide Series debut with Shelby Howard driving the No. 13 Chevrolet Impala for 2 races starting at Lucas Oil Park and Bristol. He then finished 20th and 23rd both of the races.
The No. 13 truck began racing in 2004, with Tina Gordon driving with sponsorship from Vassarette and Microtel. After five races, she left the team due to injuries she suffered at Atlanta, and Lance Hooper and Paul White shared the ride for the next several races. After several lackluster results, Jimmy Spencer drove at Loudon, finishing eighteenth, before Jason Small and Andy Houston finished out the season in the truck. For 2005, Tracy Hines drove the truck and had a fifth-place finish at Richmond International Raceway with sponsorship from David Zoriki Motorsports. He was released with two races to go, and Chad Chaffin and Johnny Sauter filled out the schedule in his place.
