For the 2024 season, Toni Breidinger is going full-time racing with Venturini Motorsports in the ARCA Menards Series. Breidinger, who got her start in karts and the USAC ranks, has since made the jump to NASCAR. This will be her second full-time season since 2022. Last season, she raced a majority of the ARCA schedule.

Last year was Breidinger’s best on the track. She not only scored four top-5s in the ARCA Menards Series, she finished 10th in points even after missing out on seven races during the year due to her part-time schedule.

Toni Breidinger also participated in the Toyota GR Cup in 2023. She has been working on her racecraft on ovals, road courses, and anywhere she can find a ride. With Venturini, Breidinger could be one of the top drivers in ARCA this season.

With her success on the track in ARCA, Breidinger was given select Truck Series starts in 2023. She has yet to announce any Truck Series plans for this season.

“I’m really excited to run another full season with Toyota Racing and Venturini Motorsports,” Breidinger said. “Working with Toyota Racing and Venturini Motorsports has given me the tools and resources to develop as a driver.

“This is a great opportunity for me, and I’m ready to capitalize on the moment. There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes to make this all come together, and I’m grateful for the support I’ve be able to pursue my dreams. I truly cannot thank my partners enough for believing in not only me, but female athletes. I’m ready to kick off this season with Toyota and VMS at Daytona.”

Off the track, Toni Breidinger is a model for Victoria’s Secret and other companies.

Toni Breidinger has a bright future in racing

When we talk about what NASCAR and racing needs in 2024, it is star power. Toni Breidinger has that and more. With over 5 million social media followers, Breidinger has star potential waiting to be unleashed.

Venturini Motorsports has been a powerhouse in the last few years in ARCA. That’s no secret. Former NASCAR Canada Series champion Cayden Lapcevich will be the crew chief for Breidinger, a strong pairing.

During the Daytona practice session for ARCA last week, Breidinger was second fastest in single lap time. She only trailed her teammate Jake Finch but led teammates Kris Wright and Gus Dean.

A year ago, Venturini went out and dominated with Jesse Love all season long. He would go on to win about half of the races that season and go on to win the champion.

Given her social media following, personality, and marketability – get Toni Breidinger into Victory Lane and see her take off.
