Noah Gragson

Born July 15, 1998, Noah Quinn Gragson entered the world of motorsport at a young age through the grassroots racing scene in Las Vegas. At just 13 years old, he began his racing journey behind the wheel of Bandoleros at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Bullring, taking his first steps in what would become a professional racing career.

Gragson's early racing education progressed naturally from Bandoleros to more competitive machinery. He moved up to compete in late model racing, honing his skills on various tracks. His talent became evident in the INEX Legends car racing series, where he captured the 2014 Young Lion Road Course championship, marking his first significant racing achievement and demonstrating his potential for future success in NASCAR's national touring series.

Gragson's NASCAR journey began in earnest with the Camping World Truck Series, where he competed full-time for Kyle Busch Motorsports from 2017 to 2018. His first taste of NASCAR Xfinity Series competition came in 2018 with a three-race schedule for Joe Gibbs Racing, making his debut in the No. 18 Ford at Richmond Raceway, followed by starts at Talladega Superspeedway and Dover International Speedway.

The next phase of his career saw him join JR Motorsports for a four-year full-time campaign in the Xfinity Series from 2019 to 2022. This period established him as a consistent competitor in NASCAR's second tier, building the experience and reputation that would eventually earn him a promotion to the Cup Series.

In 2023, Gragson made the leap to NASCAR's premier division, joining Front Row Motorsports to pilot the No. 4 Ford Mustang Dark Horse in the Cup Series. This move represented the culmination of his steady progression through NASCAR's developmental series and marked his arrival as a full-time competitor at stock car racing's highest level.
