Jacob Harrell drives the #67 Open Wheel Modified Class car.  His home track is Carolina Speedway but he can also be found racing at Cherokee Super Speedway.  He lives in Belmont, NC.

Team members helping Jacob are:  Jeff, Davey, Joe, Chris.  Susan Harrell is the car owner.

Jacob started racing in 2001 in the Pee Wee Class at Indianland Raceways because when he was 2 years old, he used to sit in front of the TV with a game steering wheel and pretend he was driving the milks car (he loved Nestles Quick) when the race was on.  His first win was that same year.  Career highlights include flipping down the back straight away of Concord Motor Sports Park in his Bandolero and his whole team working to get his car back together to start 15th (last) and came back to a 5th place finish!

The thrill of racing for Jacob is ending up in Winner's Circle at the end of the night.  His most exciting racing moment was racing with Kenny Schrader in 2010 at Carolina Speedway.  He's most proud of being the youngest driver to win at Cherokee Super Speedway.

Jacob's racing hero is Kyle Busch.

Of racing, Jacob says, "It's fun, exciting and a real sport!".
