Colby Evans (born July 2, 2001)[1] is an American professional stock car racing driver. He competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series, driving the No. 86 Ford for Clubb Racing.
Racing career
[edit]Evans' involvement in racing started in his teenage years, serving as a crew member for lower-funded teams throughout NASCAR and the ARCA Racing Series, including MBM Motorsports, Hill Motorsports, Norm Benning Racing, Brad Smith Motorsports and Wayne Peterson Racing.[2] He also started a social media theme page dedicated to start and park drivers and teams.[3]
He stepped behind the wheel in the 2020s, driving in a few dirt track racing events as well as a stock car race at Salem Speedway, driving a car previously used by Michael Waltrip and Bill Davis Racing.[4] Evans initially aimed to make his ARCA debut in 2024, targeting tracks like Iowa Speedway, Elko Speedway, Indianapolis Raceway Park, and Kansas Speedway.[2] On June 25, 2025, Evans announced his ARCA debut, driving Clubb Racing's No. 86 at Iowa.[4] He purchased a Car of Tomorrow chassis in late 2024 and plans to run the car in several vintage racing events in 2025.[5]
Regarding his racing philosophy, Evans said, "it’s now or never, you got all of this money saved in the bank, do it. It’s just living the dream and if I’m a start and park legend, I’m a start and park legend. If I never win I never win...but I can say, I competed in a freaking stock car race.”[2]
