SpeedTour All-Star Driver Bio: Ron Hornaday Jr.
SPEEDTOUR ALL-STAR DRIVER BIO: RON HORNADAY JR.
The first NASCAR Truck Series driver inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame, Ron Hornaday Jr. dominated the series when it first launched in the mid-1990s, and came back to do it again a decade later.
A four-time champion (1996, 1997, 2007 and 2009), Hornaday raised the bar for Truck Series competitors as the first driver to surpass 50 victories–achieving a then-record 51 wins by the time he retired.
Holding the all-time record for top fives (158) and top 10s (234), Hornaday’s success wasn’t just limited to on the racetrack. The California native was also a fan favorite, winning the Most Popular Driver award twice in the NASCAR Truck Series and once in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
Inducted into the West Coast Stock Car Hall of Fame in 2013, Hornaday joined the NASCAR Hall of Fame as a member of the class of 2018. In 2023–during NASCAR’s 75th anniversary season–he was recognized as one of NASCAR’s 75 Greatest Drivers.
