Alex Clubb Bio
Alex J. Clubb (born October 23, 1991) is an American professional stock car racing driver. He competes full-time in the ARCA Menards Series, driving the No. 03 Ford for his family-owned team, Clubb Racing Inc. A native of Morris, Illinois, Clubb balances his racing career with a lawn care business, local political duties, and weekend work outside the sport.
Over the course of a decade in stock car racing, Clubb has progressed from a part-time schedule with multiple teams to running a full season behind the wheel of his own equipment. His steady improvement in the ARCA Menards Series standings has made him a familiar name in the lower ranks of American stock car competition.
Early Life and Background
Alex J. Clubb was born on October 23, 1991, in Morris, Illinois. He grew up in the small Grundy County community, where short tracks and grassroots racing culture are part of everyday life for many families. From an early age, Clubb was drawn to motorsports, spending time around local race programs and learning the basics of car preparation.
Beyond racing, Clubb built a life in his hometown. He operates A. Clubb Lawn Care, a local business, and works as a bouncer on weekends when he is not at the track. He is also a member of the Morris City Council and identifies as a Republican, reflecting a strong commitment to his community in Illinois.
Path to NASCAR
Clubb’s path to NASCAR has run through the ARCA Menards Series, the traditional proving ground for stock car talent in the United States. Rather than following the conventional ladder through NASCAR’s national touring divisions, he built his experience as a driver-owner at the regional and ARCA levels. This independent route has shaped his understanding of the business side of racing as much as the competition on track.
Through persistence and by managing his own team operations, Clubb has steadily increased his track time and results year after year. His progression from spotty part-time schedules to full-season competition illustrates the patient approach that defines his career arc in stock car racing.
Alex Clubb Career
Early Career (2015–2020)
Clubb made his ARCA Menards Series debut in 2015 with Carter 2 Motorsports. His first race ended with a 26th-place finish after valve issues, and a best result of seventeenth followed at the Illinois State Fairgrounds Racetrack later that season. The early outings provided valuable experience but limited on-track success.
After a brief hiatus, Clubb returned in 2017, this time driving for his own Clubb Racing team. Over the next three seasons he ran select events, posting a best finish of twelfth at Toledo. He also made a one-off appearance with Wayne Peterson Racing in 2019 and briefly joined Fast Track Racing in 2020, where he missed time following the birth of his son.
ARCA Menards Series Breakthrough (2021–2023)
The 2021 season marked a turning point for Clubb. He partnered with fellow driver Tim Richmond to form Richmond Clubb Motorsports, combining their equipment and resources. Running seven races, Clubb earned his first career ARCA Menards Series top-ten finish at the Dutch Boy 150 and added another top-ten the following week, ending the year 21st in the standings. The partnership ended after Richmond was injured at the Henry Ford Health System 200.
In 2022, Clubb returned to running his own team and completed fourteen races, finishing thirteenth in points. He matched that race count in 2023 and improved to eleventh in the final standings, signaling steady growth. Each season added experience and deeper familiarity with the ARCA Menards Series calendar.
Clubb Racing Inc. Era (2024–Present)
Clubb reached a career milestone in 2024 by running a full ARCA Menards Series schedule for the first time with Clubb Racing Inc. His eighth-place finish at Daytona International Speedway was his lone top-ten result of the year, yet consistency carried him to ninth in the final points standings. The full-season commitment confirmed that his family-owned team could compete on a complete schedule.
In 2025, Clubb again ran every race with his team and produced his strongest season yet. He earned two top-ten finishes and ended the year a career-best sixth in the ARCA Menards Series standings. The improvement from ninth to sixth demonstrated continued progress and gave his independent operation meaningful momentum.
