Trevor Huddleston Bio
Trevor Huddleston (born May 31, 1996) is an American stock car racing driver. He competes full-time in the ARCA Menards Series West, driving the No. 50 Ford for his family-owned team, High Point Racing. A native of Southern California, Huddleston is the 2025 ARCA Menards Series West champion.
Early Life and Background
Trevor Huddleston was born on May 31, 1996, and grew up in Agoura Hills, California. Racing was part of his life from an early age, as his family has long been connected to short tracks in the region. His father, Tim Huddleston, was also a track champion at Irwindale Speedway, giving Trevor a direct link to the sport through his own family garage.
Through his family, Huddleston gained hands-on experience with cars and race preparation from a young age. The Huddleston household eventually built its own team, High Point Racing, which has remained central to Trevor’s career. He later attended Moorpark College while continuing to develop his racing program on the side.
Path to NASCAR
Huddleston began his competitive career in 2008 in bandolero racing. He progressed through the local short-track ranks, racing in the Sportsman class at Irwindale Speedway in 2011 before moving into late models at Madera Speedway by 2014. In 2015, he captured his first Irwindale track championship, winning five late model races along the way.
By 2016, Huddleston was racing almost exclusively at Irwindale, winning ten features. That same year, he made his NASCAR K&N Pro Series West debut with Sunrise Ford Racing, finishing tenth at Irwindale. The strong regional results and the family-run team set the stage for his transition into NASCAR’s developmental ladder.
Trevor Huddleston Career
Early Career (2008–2015)
Huddleston’s earliest laps came in bandolero cars in 2008, and he quickly moved up through the local divisions. He raced in the Sportsman class at Irwindale Speedway in 2011 and stepped into late models at Madera Speedway three years later. In 2015, he won his first Irwindale track championship, collecting five late model victories in the process.
These early years were spent racing for High Point Racing, the family-owned team his father Tim runs. The program gave Trevor the chance to build race craft on ovals around California while preparing for a shot at NASCAR’s regional series.
K&N Pro Series West Breakthrough (2016–2018)
Huddleston made his NASCAR K&N Pro Series West debut in 2016 with Sunrise Ford Racing, posting a top-ten finish at Irwindale. The following year, he split time between Irwindale, Kern County Raceway Park, and Tucson Speedway, winning 22 of 35 starts across the three tracks. He finished the 2017 NASCAR Whelen All-American Series title fight just three points behind Lee Pulliam.
He returned to the K&N Pro Series West in 2018 with Sunrise Ford Racing, originally planning a limited slate that turned into a full season. Huddleston ended the year sixth in the championship standings, confirming his place among the West Series regulars.
First Wins and Standout Seasons (2019–2021)
On March 30, 2019, Huddleston scored his first career K&N Pro Series West victory at his home track of Irwindale, beating Tanner Gray in a photo finish. He added a second win that year at Evergreen Speedway and closed the season fourth in the championship standings.
He moved to Sunrise Ford’s No. 6 in 2020 and remained in that ride in 2021. While he did not visit victory lane during those two seasons, he posted finishes of fourth and sixth in the championship points, showing consistent speed and keeping himself on the ladder toward bigger opportunities.
High Point Racing Era (2022–Present)
After losing his ride to Tanner Reif in 2022, Huddleston returned to his family-owned High Point Racing, climbing into the No. 50 Ford for the first Irwindale race of the year and finishing sixth. He added starts at Kern County and a second Irwindale outing, posting results of seventh and third.
In 2023, Huddleston ran the No. 50 full time and won a race at his home track of Irwindale. He finished a career-best third in the championship standings. He returned to the No. 50 in 2024 and won back-to-back races at Madera Speedway and All American Speedway, finishing third in points for a second straight year.
The 2025 season brought a fast start for Huddleston and High Point Racing. He won the opener at Kern County Raceway Park, added a second Kern victory later in the year, and then swept back-to-back races at Madera Speedway and the Las Vegas Bullring. That run pushed him to the top of the championship standings, and he was crowned the 2025 ARCA Menards Series West champion.
Driving Style and Strengths
Huddleston is at his best on the short tracks of the West Coast, where his late model background gives him strong car control in traffic. He is known for clean restarts, smart tire management, and the ability to capitalize on late-race opportunities. Working with the family team at High Point Racing has also allowed quick communication and consistent setups across each round of the schedule.
Notable Races and Milestones
His first K&N Pro Series West win at Irwindale in 2019, the 2023 home-track victory with High Point Racing, and the 2024 back-to-back wins at Madera and All American Speedway stand out as signature moments. The 2024 West Coast Stock Car Motorsports Hall of Fame 150 at Madera Speedway is especially memorable, as Huddleston proposed to his girlfriend, Nastasia Dodd, in victory lane on the same night he won the race at the track where they first met.
