Clubb Racing Inc. has announced that Jeff Maconi will make his ARCA Menards Series East debut on May 3, driving the No. 86 Ford Fusion at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway.
Maconi Setup Shop will appear aboard the No. 86 Ford Fusion as well as 4K Motorsports, Abruzzi Racewear, and Big Fish BBQ will also support Marconi’s ARCA East debut.
Maconi began his racing career in 2024 with Blaster Motorsports, which is owned by ARCA Menards Series regular Brayton Laster. He made his debut in the CRA Late Model Sportsman Series during the season finale at Winchester Speedway in Winchester, Indiana. Unfortunately, he finished in 27th place after suffering ignition issues that prevented him from completing a single lap.
Maconi has been active in the simulation racing world since 2020 with his brand, “Maconi Setup Shop,” providing setups for iRacing, a virtual racing simulation, that provides virtual racers each week with setups for the racing series that includes all oval racing classes ranging from Legends to Late Model Stocks, and up to the NASCAR Cup Series cars. Maconi also kickstarted Maconi Entertainment, which provides custom paint schemes for cars, live streaming for virtual leagues, and broadcast production.
Recently, Maconi also tested Clubb’s ARCA car at Grundy County Speedway in Morris, Illinois.
“I am honored, grateful, and excited to have the opportunity to make my NASCAR debut with Clubb Racing, especially at a venue like Nashville.” Said Maconi in a press release.
“My goals for the day are to keep the car clean, earn the respect of the other teams and drivers on track, and to learn everything that I can to help me prepare for future races–hopefully with Clubb Racing!”
Alex Clubb, the team owner of Clubb Racing Inc. also expressed his excitement for Maconi jumping aboard the No. 86 for Nashville Fairgrounds.
“We are very excited to work with Jeff at Nashville. Jeff tested with us at Grundy County Speedway and improved a great deal throughout the day. We are looking forward to getting good clean laps in at Nashville with goals of more races down the road.”
The Music City 150 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway will air live on Flo Racing on May 3.
