MRD Motorsports is an American racecar team. The team is owned by Dave Malcolmson, and it fields the #8 Chevrolet Silverado in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.

Malcolmson originally started the team in the Allison Legacy Series as a driver before retiring as an owner. Malcolmson would debut his team in the Goody's Dash Series before moving up to the Truck Series in 2003. The team would field the #06 for Regan Smith in 2004 and 2005, with his best finish being 9th at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Smith would leave the team for the Busch Series, and Malcolmson tapped ARCA RE/MAX Series driver Chad McCumbee for the 2006 season. McCumbee and MRD struggled, missing the season opening GM Flex Fuel 250. After a few races, McCumbee left the team for Green Light Racing. THe operation would run out of money after Dover. Malcolmson would revive the team for the 2007 season in a partnership with NEXTEL Cup team Haas CNC Racing. MRD fielded another ARCA driver, this time Rookie of the Year Blake Bjorklund for 12 races in a driver development partnership with NEXTEL Cup team Haas CNC Racing. However, owner Gene Haas decided to move Bjorklund up to the Busch Series to pilot Jay Robinson Racing's #28. Chad McCumbee would return to MRD after struggling with Green Light Racing, taking his sponsors The GPS Store and Garmin with him. His best finish this year with MRD is a 10th place at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. McCumbee took the team to a near upset victory at Texas before spinning his tires which lead to being spun on a green-white-checkered finish and finished 13th.
