Clayton Weatherman (born June 5, 1999) is an American professional stock car racing driver who competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series, driving the No. 10 Toyota for Fast Track Racing.

Racing career

From 2011 to 2013, Weatherman competed in select races in the SRL Legends Tour, winning two races at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Bullring in 2011 and 2013.[1]

In 2014, Weatherman attempted to make his ARCA Racing Series debut at Salem Speedway, driving the No. 1 Dodge for the family-owned Weatherman Motorsports, where he would be classified in 30th after not starting the race. He would then run three more races with the team the following year, this time in the No. 10 Ford, a ride that he would share with his brother Kyle, finishing eighth at Salem, eleventh at Winchester Speedway, and fifteenth at Lucas Oil Raceway.[2]

In 2016, Weatherman would join Lira Motorsports at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway in the No. 93 Ford, having tested with the team near the end of 2015.[3] After starting fifteenth, he would go on to finish three laps down in fourteenth. He would then join Cunningham Motorsports at Berlin Raceway, driving the No. 22 Ford.[4] After starting fifth, he would be involved in a multi-car crash late in the race and would once again finish fourteenth.

In 2023, it was revealed that Weatherman would make his return to the now ARCA Menards Series at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds dirt track, driving the No. 10 Toyota for Fast Track Racing.[5] [6] [7]
