Triad Racing Technologies was a body parts and chassis supplier for NASCAR teams that ran under the Toyota manufacturer. The company was originally formed as Triad Racing Development before it was merged in late 2008 with Bill Davis Racing by Michael Held and Marty Gaunt. Originally, TRT was intended to field a full-time Sprint Cup Series and three full-time Camping World Truck Series teams that were originally owned by Davis, but a lack of sponsorship caused the organization to close all of its teams and lay off most of its employees. MBM Motorsports eventually invested into TRT, acquiring the company's equipment for use in the team's Cup and NASCAR Xfinity Series programs.[1]
