Toni Breidinger, a full-time driver in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series with TRICON Garage, continues to make waves both on and off the racetrack.
At 25, Breidinger made history as the first Arab American woman to race in one of NASCAR’s National Series. Since her 2018 debut in the ARCA Menards Series, she’s faced the challenge of establishing herself in a male-dominated sport. Hailing from San Bernardino, California, she’s become a trailblazer for women in motorsports.
Over the past few years, Breidinger has experienced significant growth — not only in her racing performance but also in building a strong personal brand. This visibility has attracted major sponsors like Raising Cane’s, CELSIUS, and Sunoco, helping her ascend to the Truck Series. She now pilots the No. 5 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro and is just the third woman to race full-time in the series.
Her rising presence on social media has also opened doors in the modeling world, leading to campaigns with top brands such as Victoria’s Secret, Free People, and GAP. Most notably, she recently appeared in the prestigious Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, further solidifying her influence beyond the racetrack.
