Cody Dennison Bio
Cody Blake Dennison (born March 4, 1990) is an American professional stock car racing driver and YouTube personality. He last competed part-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, driving the Nos. 2/22 Ford F-150s for Reaume Brothers Racing, and also ran part-time in the ARCA Menards Series and the ARCA Menards Series West for multiple teams. Standing 6 feet tall and hailing from Hokes Bluff, Alabama, Dennison balances a presence on social media with a late-blooming career in stock car racing. His journey from independent short-track racer to national NASCAR and ARCA events has played out largely between 2022 and 2025.
Early Life and Background
Cody Blake Dennison was born on March 4, 1990, in Hokes Bluff, Alabama, a small community in Etowah County in the northeastern part of the state. Growing up in a region with deep roots in short-track racing, he developed an interest in motorsports at a young age, eventually channeling that passion into a hands-on path behind the wheel. Alabama’s vibrant grassroots racing scene, with its many local asphalt and dirt venues, helped shape his early understanding of stock car competition.
Before turning his focus fully to driving, Dennison also built a following online. He created the CAMELOT331 YouTube channel and, beginning in 2013, posted videos of himself performing guitar covers. In December 2018, he shifted the channel’s direction, posting a series of videos about his experiences working at GameStop, including his eventual firing. Those videos went viral, and the attention helped introduce him to a wider audience long before his first professional start. He continues to maintain an active presence on social media, including Instagram and Facebook, under the same CAMELOT331 branding.
Path to NASCAR
Dennison began racing professionally in 2022 in the Grand National Super Series, a regional stock car tour based in the southeastern United States. He made four starts that year in an older Ryan Newman-owned Dodge from 2007, finishing in the top ten in all four appearances. His best result was a fifth-place run at Dillon Motor Speedway, an early sign that he could compete consistently at the grassroots level.
He expanded his schedule the following year, contesting eighteen of the season’s twenty-two events across his own equipment and entries fielded by ShoTime Motorsports and Bob Schacht Motorsports. Dennison posted fifteen top-ten finishes, including fifth-place results at both New River All-American Speedway events and Carteret County Speedway, and ended the year sixth in the final points standings. The volume and consistency of his 2023 campaign positioned him to pursue opportunities in NASCAR and ARCA-sanctioned national series for 2024.
Cody Dennison Career
Early Career (2022-2023)
Dennison’s professional debut came in 2022 with the Grand National Super Series, where he ran four races in an older Ryan Newman-owned Dodge. Despite the limited schedule, his top-ten streak in every start demonstrated mechanical sympathy and race craft beyond a typical first-year driver. The season served as a foundation, providing him with seat time and confidence heading into a more ambitious 2023.
In 2023, Dennison broadened his campaign across eighteen starts, working with ShoTime Motorsports and Bob Schacht Motorsports in addition to fielding his own car. He earned fifteen top-ten finishes and peaked with fifth-place runs at New River All-American Speedway and Carteret County Speedway. His sixth-place result in the final points standings validated the expanded effort and set the stage for his transition to ARCA and NASCAR national events.
ARCA Menards Series Breakthrough (2024)
Dennison entered 2024 with designs on breaking into the ARCA Menards Series. He participated in pre-season testing at Daytona International Speedway with Wayne Peterson Racing in the No. 06 Toyota, then attempted to make his ARCA debut at Daytona with Clubb Racing Inc. in the No. 86 Ford. He ultimately failed to qualify after posting the slowest time in both practice and qualifying. A second attempt at Phoenix Raceway with Wayne Peterson Racing also ended short of the field, with another 35th-place qualifying effort.
His breakthrough finally came in the ARCA Menards Series East at Dover Motor Speedway-area venues later in the year. Driving for Wayne Peterson Racing, he qualified twelfth and finished tenth in his East Series debut, albeit eight laps down to race winner Gio Ruggiero. From there, Dennison drove for Fast Track Racing in the No. 01 Ford at Talladega Superspeedway, finishing seventeenth, and added a twelfth-place combined East Series result at Dover Motor Speedway with WPR. He rounded out the year with a sixteenth at Kansas Speedway for Fast Track, a thirteenth at Charlotte Motor Speedway, and consistent top-ten East finishes at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway and Flat Rock Speedway.
On June 10, 2024, it was announced that Dennison would run the remainder of the ARCA season with CW Motorsports in the No. 93 Chevrolet, although he only contested Iowa Speedway before returning to Fast Track Racing. Despite four different teams and two failed qualifying attempts, he finished the season seventh in ARCA points with two top-ten runs. In the ARCA East Series, he closed the year sixth in the standings with two top-ten finishes of his own.
Reaume Brothers Racing Era (2025)
On January 21, 2025, it was announced that Dennison would drive a partial NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule for Reaume Brothers Racing in the No. 2 Ford. He made seven starts with the team, posting a best finish of nineteenth at Texas Motor Speedway. He was later released from the ride, with Dennison stating publicly that he had been “cancelled” for “being a conservative,” a claim that drew attention across racing social media.
Alongside his Truck Series work, Dennison had also been announced on January 19, 2025, as the driver of the No. 72 part-time entry in the ARCA Menards Series West for Strike Mamba Racing. He ran the final three races of the West Series season with Strike Mamba, recording a best finish at Madera Speedway. Despite running only six events, he finished eleventh in the West Series final standings.
Driving Style and Strengths
Dennison’s most consistent strength has been availability and finishing races, particularly on the demanding superspeedways and intermediate tracks that pepper the ARCA and Craftsman Truck Series calendars. His grassroots background has given him a steady approach to long runs, and his willingness to split time across multiple teams in 2024 suggested adaptability in the garage. He has also shown a knack for short-track and flat oval work, traits honed in the Grand National Super Series.
Notable Races and Milestones
His first ARCA-sanctioned top-ten came in his ARCA East debut, where he wheeled the No. 06 for Wayne Peterson Racing to a tenth-place finish. His best Truck Series result of nineteenth at Texas Motor Speedway in 2025 stood as a small but meaningful milestone in a brief national-series career. Earlier, his perfect top-four 2022 record in the Grand National Super Series laid the groundwork for everything that followed.
Cody Dennison Career Wins
Cody Dennison has not recorded a verified victory in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, the ARCA Menards Series, the ARCA Menards Series West, or the ARCA Menards Series East. His professional results through 2025 are highlighted by consistent top-ten finishes at the regional and development levels rather than trips to victory lane.
ARCA Menards Series Highlights
Dennison has yet to post a win in national ARCA Menards Series competition. His most notable results include a thirteenth-place run at Charlotte Motor Speedway, a sixteenth at Kansas Speedway, and a seventeenth at Talladega Superspeedway, all in 2024. He finished the 2024 ARCA season seventh in points with two top-ten finishes while driving for four different teams.
Other Wins and Performances
At the regional level, Dennison’s strongest campaign came in the 2023 Grand National Super Series, where he posted fifteen top-ten finishes across eighteen starts and ended the year sixth in points. His best individual runs that season were fifth-place finishes at both New River All-American Speedway events and Carteret County Speedway. In the ARCA Menards Series East, he closed 2024 sixth in the standings with two top-ten finishes.
Cody Dennison Family
Family Background and Racing Lineage
Publicly available details about Dennison’s parents and broader family are limited. He grew up in Hokes Bluff, Alabama, a community with a strong local racing tradition, and his path into stock car competition appears to have been self-driven rather than inherited from a multigenerational racing family. No immediate family members in motorsports have been publicly documented in available sources.
Personal Life
Dennison is best known publicly by his CAMELOT331 brand, the name he uses across his YouTube channel and social media accounts. He has been open about his conservative political views, a stance he referenced publicly following his departure from Reaume Brothers Racing in 2025. He remains active on Instagram and Facebook, where he continues to share updates about his racing and online ventures.
2025 Season Performance
Dennison’s 2025 campaign was split between the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series with Reaume Brothers Racing and the ARCA Menards Series West with Strike Mamba Racing. In the Truck Series, he made seven starts in the No. 2 Ford F-150, with a nineteenth-place finish at Texas Motor Speedway standing as his best result of the year. His tenure with the team ended mid-season when he was released, a decision he publicly attributed to his political views.
In the ARCA Menards Series West, Dennison ran the final three races of the season with Strike Mamba Racing in the No. 72, posting a best finish at Madera Speedway. Despite contesting only six total events on the West schedule, he closed the year eleventh in the final standings. The split-schedule approach allowed him to keep racing at the national level while navigating the uncertainty surrounding his Truck Series ride.
Heading into the remainder of 2025, Dennison’s outlook remains unclear. His public split with Reaume Brothers Racing has cast uncertainty over his immediate Truck Series plans, and no new national-series ride has been publicly confirmed. He continues to engage with fans through his CAMELOT331 social media channels, leaving open the possibility of a return to ARCA, a regional tour, or a fresh opportunity elsewhere in the NASCAR ladder.
