Buddy Isles Jr. drives the #11jr All Star V-8/Pure Stock Class car.  His home track is Clarys Speedway but he can also be found racing at Wayne County Speedway.  He lives in Littleton, NC.

Team members helping Buddy are:  Travis Newsome, Kenny Wilson, Dal Bobbitt, David Height, Matt Height, Dan Blaylock.  Buddy Isles Sr. is the car owner.

Buddy started racing in 2005 in the Pure Stock Class at Clarys Speedway because he promised his Dad when he was seven that if he taught him, he would listen and learn.  His first win was that same year.  Career highlights include finishing 3rd in his first race at Clarys Speedway, won once the first year, won 5 out of 9 the second year.

The thrill of racing for Buddy is the action and being around his Dad and crew.  His most exciting racing moment was at Harpers Motor Speedway the first time and raced 2nd until 5 laps to go and passed the leader.  He's most proud that being 16 he can learn fast and run with racers for over 10 years.

Buddy's racing heroes are Dale Earnhardt and his Dad, Buddy Isles Sr.

Of racing, Buddy says, "That if you don't come to the track to win, don't come at all!  Takes a lot of time to race.  The more the better the outcome!".
