For the 2024 season, Toni Breidinger will remain with Venturini Motorsports in the ARCA Series. This comes after she inked a new contract after a relatively up-and-down season in 2023. Most of the ups had to do with three Truck Series race gigs with Tricon Garage in the #1 Toyota. Otherwise, she has been competing part-time in the ARCA Menards Series in 2023.

In the previous year, Breidinger ran full-time in the #25 car and now looks set to return once again. Along the way, she is set to link up with crew chief Cayden Lapevich. During her part-time tenure, the 24-year-old clinched four top-fives and seven top-10 finishes in 2023. This brings up her total tally to 16 top-10 finishes in her ARCA career.

In a team statement released by Venturini Motorsports, the 24-year-old Breidinger seemed enthusiastic. She said, “I’m really excited to run another full season with Toyota Racing and Venturini Motorsports. Working with Toyota Racing and Venturini Motorsports has given me the tools and resources to develop as a driver. This is a great opportunity for me and I’m ready to capitalize on the moment.

“There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes to make this all come together and I’m grateful for the support I’ve be able to pursue my dreams. I truly cannot thank my partners enough for believing in not only me, but female athletes. I’m ready to kick off this season with Toyota and VMS at Daytona.”

This seems great news for Breidinger, as she can continue to prove her mettle on the race track. Admittedly, she has also been known for her fashion exploits and modeling career. However, the young woman will want to be equally known for her racing prowess as well, and the ARCA Series is a step in that direction.

Of course, there is the question of sponsors, since no NASCAR driver can compete for long without one. The good news is that the team has confirmed that they will reveal the sponsors at a later date. Additionally, the Venturini Motorsports news also means that Toni Breidinger remains in the Toyota stable for the foreseeable future.

Of course, the driver did not have it easy, despite her fame. Earlier, she tweeted about how she struggled with sponsorship back in 2018. According to Tony Breidinger, she had sent 100s of emails requesting for sponsors to back her budding race career. Unfortunately, she only managed to hear back from a handful of them. In contrast, she must be feeling upbeat about her current predicament.

Now, the waiting game begins yet again for the driver, as she hopes for positive signs. The good news is that her decent performances in 2023 should be enough to convince some brands to take a gamble on her. If that does happen, the sky is the limit for the American youngster. She will undoubtedly be aiming to follow the likes of Danica Patrick, Janet Guthrie, and Hailie Deegan, and hopefully even surpass them.
