Racing career
[edit]In 2002, Bracken made his debut in the ARCA Re/Max Series at Berlin Raceway, driving the No. 8 Chevrolet for Norm Benning Racing, where he started 32nd and finished 33rd after running only two laps due to rear end issues. He attempted one more race in 2005, driving the No. 09 car at Toledo Speedway, where he failed to qualify.[1][2]
In 2025, it was revealed that Bracken would participate in the pre-season test for the now ARCA Menards Series at Daytona International Speedway, driving for Fast Track Racing.[3][4][5][6][7] A month later, it was revealed that Bracken will attempt to qualify for the season opening race at Daytona, this time driving the No. 02 Chevrolet for Young's Motorsports.[8][9] Bracken was involved in a crash on lap 19 and finished the race 27th. After being taken to the infield care center after the accident, Bracken was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation.[10]
