As the annual ARCA Menards Series pre-season practice session at Daytona approaches, more and more drivers are getting their 2023 plans solidified and announced.
On Wednesday, Venturini Motorsports announced that Toni Breidinger – who competed full-time for the team in the ARCA Menards Series in 2022 – would be returning to the organization for 11 events in 2023.
“2022 was a big growing year for me. It was my rookie season and every time I went to a track it was brand new for me. It was a big learning curve. I’m looking forward to applying what I learned last year to this year,” said the 23-year-old from Hillsborough, CA.

Breidinger’s schedule for the 2023 ARCA Menards Series season will include Daytona, Phoenix, Talladega, Dover, Kansas, Charlotte, Iowa, IRP, Pocono, and Phoenix (ARCA West).
“Daytona is the most exciting race of the season for me. The environment there is just different and I’ve been looking forward to going back and racing there again. Another track I’m really looking forward to going to is Phoenix which was a highlight for me last season.”
Coming off last season’s full-time effort in the ARCA Menards Series, Breidinger had six top 10s with an average finish of 12.8, which was good enough to score a sixth-place finish in points.
The 23-year-old was able to score six top-10 results throughout her full-season campaign in 2022 at Daytona, Kansas, Berlin, Pocono, Kansas, and Salem, including a career-best result of eighth.
The ARCA Menards Series 2023 season kicks off on February 18th at Daytona International Speedway. You can watch the race live on FS1 and the Fox Sports App.
