Stacy Bret Holmes (born May 5, 1997) is an American professional stock car racing driver. He last competed part-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, driving the No. 1 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro for Tricon Garage.
Racing career
Holmes began racing when he ran in go-kart events starting at the age of eight and for four years in total, earning sixty wins altogether during that time. After that, he competed in racing series on both dirt and asphalt, which included winning the championship in the Crate Late Model Division. He later raced in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series.[1]
Holmes began racing in ARCA in 2016, intending to compete in the season opener at Daytona for Empire Racing in the No. 18 Ford; however, he withdrew for unknown reasons. He had previously driven with them in ARCA's preseason testing at the track in January.[2]
After initially planning a part-time ARCA schedule in 2020 with Bret Holmes Racing, Holmes ran well at the beginning of the season and shifted to a full schedule. He claimed his first career win at Kansas Speedway after leading 82 laps of the 100-lap event.[3] Holmes went on to finish the season with four top-five finishes in the final four races. He won the series championship by twelve points over Michael Self.[4][5]
In 2021, Bret Holmes Racing expanded to include a part-time NASCAR Camping World Truck Series team for Holmes and Sam Mayer.[6]
On October 1, 2022, at the Chevy Silverado 250 at Talladega, Holmes had narrowly beaten Rackley WAR driver Matt DiBenedetto to the line but was classified as third during the caution.[7]
On October 9, 2025, it was announced that Holmes would return to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, this time driving the No. 1 Toyota for Tricon Garage.[8]
Personal life
Holmes was studying building science at Auburn University in addition to racing in ARCA in 2017.[1]
Holmes lives in Munford, Alabama. Bret's father, Stacy Holmes, is also a former racing driver, where he often competed at the Talladega Short Track, where he held the track record until Bret himself broke it in 2013.[1]
