Time to feature a super gorgeous racer. Man, Toni Breidinger is… let’s just say, this article is for you, car enthusiasts here. Oh, but we won’t be talking about cars. We will be focusing on the beautiful woman behind the wheel.
Toni will remind you of a super gorgeous Hollywood. We really don’t know who, but she will give off that vibe. Yup, very much like Deja Vu. So let’s get to know this babe now, shall we?
Who is Toni Breidinger
Toni Breidinger is a professional stock car driver and model who’s been steadily making her mark—at full speed. She’s known as the first female Arab-American driver to compete in NASCAR and, just to keep things interesting, also holds the record for the most wins (19) by a woman in USAC history.
Raised in Hillsborough, California, she got her start in go-karts at nine—because apparently recess wasn’t fast enough. After five years, she moved up to the USAC Western US Asphalt Midget Series at 15 and went on to win the championship just two years later. Casual progression.
After graduating high school, she headed to North Carolina and shifted from open-wheel racing to stock cars, spending several years building experience in late models. By 2021, she stepped into the ARCA Racing Series with Venturini Motorsports, putting together multiple top-five and top-ten finishes over four seasons.
From there, it was only a matter of time before the next jump. She now competes in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, driving the No. 27 Chevrolet Silverado RST for Rackley W.A.R.—because if you’re going to climb the racing ladder, you might as well keep your foot on the gas.
Her Early Life
Toni Breidinger was born on July 14, 1999, in San Francisco and raised nearby in Hillsborough, California. She comes from a mixed background—German on her dad’s side and Lebanese on her mom’s—which adds a little extra depth to her story (and her perspective).
She also has a twin sister, Annie, so competition might’ve started at home long before the racetrack entered the picture.
Toni attended Mercy High School Burlingame, graduating in 2017. She’s spoken fondly about her time there, especially the diversity she grew up around—something she didn’t fully appreciate until she left. Turns out, you don’t always realize how special something is until you’re no longer in it… a lesson that applies well beyond high school.
Career Journey
Toni Breidinger got her start in racing at nine years old—thanks to a newspaper ad and a dad who said, “Why not?” He took Toni and her twin sister to a go-kart school, and after a few lessons, ended up buying them karts. Casual parenting decision… slightly life-changing outcome.
From the jump, racing clicked. She’s said it gave her a sense of independence she’d been looking for—and once she got that feeling, she wasn’t letting it go. She stayed in karting until 2014, with one notable bump along the way: a crash that resulted in a broken arm. Not ideal, but also not enough to slow her down.
At 15, she moved up to the USAC Western Asphalt Midget Series and immediately started making noise—back-to-back runner-up finishes before winning the championship in 2016. That win also made her the winningest female driver in a USAC asphalt division at the time. Not bad for someone who started with a newspaper ad.
Originally, she had her sights set on open-wheel racing, but after watching late model races at Madera Speedway, she decided to switch lanes—literally. Her dad needed a little convincing, but after that 2016 championship, he was on board. Soon after graduating high school in 2017, she moved to North Carolina to fully commit to racing.
From there, it’s been a steady climb. She made her ARCA debut in 2018 with Venturini Motorsports, worked her way through development programs, and kept building experience in both ARCA and late models. By 2021, she was competing in ARCA while also stepping into NASCAR territory—becoming the first Arab-American woman to race in a national NASCAR touring series.
Her 2022 season marked her first full-time run in ARCA, where she picked up multiple top-10 finishes and ended the year sixth overall. In 2023, she added more top-five finishes and made her NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut. By 2024, she was back full-time in ARCA, finishing fourth in the standings with consistent results across the season.
Then came 2025, her full-time rookie year in the Truck Series. And like most rookie seasons—it was a learning curve. Results were mixed, with a handful of top-20 finishes and a lot of valuable experience (plus a few chaotic moments, including a fiery incident and even a car break-in weekend—because racing wasn’t dramatic enough on its own).
By 2026, she shifted to a part-time Truck Series schedule with Rackley W.A.R., continuing to build her career one race at a time.
If there’s a theme here, it’s persistence. Fast when things go right, patient when they don’t—and always moving forward.
Facts and Trivia
Toni Breidinger isn’t just building a career on the track—she’s also making moves off it, and doing both at full speed.
Alongside racing, she’s carved out a modeling career, which she openly describes as a way to support (and fund) her time behind the wheel. Signed with IMG Models, she’s appeared in publications like Marie Claire Arabia, Glamour, GQ, and more. In 2025, she added a major milestone by appearing in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, becoming the first NASCAR driver to do so—because apparently breaking barriers is part of the routine.
She’s joked that her life feels a bit like Hannah Montana—two completely different worlds, both very real, and somehow balanced at the same time. One minute it’s helmets and horsepower, the next it’s photoshoots and fashion. Not exactly your average schedule.
Beyond modeling, she’s also been active in advocacy and partnerships. She supports the Women’s Sports Foundation, even featuring the organization on her race cars as a nod to its mission. She’s also participated in charity events like the American Cornhole League’s “Cornhole for a Cause”—which sounds fun until you remember these people are still competitive about it.
Brand-wise, she’s teamed up with a mix of companies across industries, from Raising Cane’s and Celsius to Sunoco, Coach, Dave & Buster’s, and even 818 Tequila. She also made an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show—because why not add daytime TV to the list?
On a more personal note, she’s been open about her journey with body confidence. She’s spoken about struggling with it growing up, and how focusing on both physical and mental health helped her find a better balance. It’s a reminder that behind the racing helmet and magazine covers, there’s still a real person figuring things out—just like everyone else, only with a slightly busier schedule.
