Haas Factory Team (HFT) is an American professional stock car racing team that competes in the NASCAR Cup Series and the NASCAR Xfinity Series. The team is owned by Haas Automation founder Gene Haas. It made its debut in 2025, following the closure of Stewart–Haas Racing at the conclusion of the 2024 season.{{Cite magazine |url=https://racer.com/2024/06/20/gene-haas-to-continue-in-nascar-with-new-haas-factory-team-in-2025/ |title=Gene Haas to continue in NASCAR with new Haas Factory Team in 2025 |magazine=Racer |date=June 20, 2024 |access-date=June 25, 2024}}

The team is based and headquartered in Kannapolis, North Carolina – roughly {{Convert|10|mi|km}} north of Charlotte Motor Speedway – alongside sister team and Formula One entrant Haas F1 Team, though the two teams are separate entities. The team currently operates out of the same shop Stewart–Haas Racing operated out of prior to its closure.{{Cite magazine |url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/josephwolkin/2024/06/20/gene-haas-to-remain-in-nascar-with-the-formation-of-haas-factory-team/ |title=Gene Haas to Remain in NASCAR with the Formation of Haas Factory Team |last=Wolkin |first=Joseph |magazine=Forbes |access-date=June 25, 2024}}
