'''Triad Motorsports''' was a motorsports team that competed in the [[NASCAR]] [[Winston Cup Series]] and [[ARCA Racing Series]] from 1993 to 1999. The team was owned by Jim Wilson. The teams drivers included [[Gary Bradberry]], [[Billy Standridge]] and [[Randy MacDonald]].
===NASCAR===
The team debuted the No. 78 Ford Thunderbird in 1993 at the [[First Union 400]] at [[North Wilkesboro Speedway]] with driver [[Jay Hedgecock]]. Hedgecock would miss the race. They would attempt Pocono later that year, again missing the race. Hedgecock would qualify the 78 at the fall Wilkesboro event. Hedgecock would return in 1994, qualifying for both races he attempted. [[Pancho Carter]] would also attempt three races, qualifying for one. Carter would again attempt three races in 1995, and would once again only make one. Canadian driver [[Randy MacDonald]] would join the team in 1996 with limited success. The team did however score it's first big sponsorship break, with [[Country Music]] band [[Diamond Rio]] and [[Hanes]] coming aboard. MacDonald had declared for Rookie of the Year, however, success was again limited. MacDonald would attempt 12 races, only qualifying for three. Following his DNQ at the 1993 [[Southern 500]], MacDonald was released in favor of [[Billy Standridge]]. Standridge would qualify for three races and was signed for the 1997 season. For the first time, Triad would attempt their first full season. The effort would once again prove futile, as Standridge would only qualify for five of the first 17 races. Standridge would leave and re-open his own team. He would be replaced by [[Gary Bradberry]], who had been released by [[TriStar Motorsports]] earlier that season. Bradberry would successfully qualify for eight out of 12 races he attempted with the team. At the end of the season, Bradberry was announced to be the teams full time driver for 1998, with sponsorship from Pilot Travel Centers and Flying J.
