Patterson grew up running go-karts in his hometown, and in 2020 moved to Statesville, NC. He joined forces with Jordan Anderson Racing as part of his internship with the team. Working with them on their NASCAR Xfinity Series program. Since his move to North Carolina, he’s run several disciplines of racing including dirt micros, legends cars, and running for Sellers-Burton Racing’s late model stock car program from Danville, VA.
He now joins the Lebanon, TN-based organization for eight races starting at Nashville, and including Mid-Ohio Sportscar Course, Lucas Oil Raceway Park, Salem Speedway, the Milwaukee Mile, Bristol, the second Kansas Speedway race, and the ARCA Menards Series finale at Toledo Speedway.
“This is a great opportunity for our team to build consistency with the same driver behind the wheel for eight races,” said MAN Motorsports owner Mark Noble in a release. “We have had five different drivers over our first nine starts as a team and I feel that having the same driver can help us build on what the cars and the driver needs to compete.”
MAN Motorsports has been home for several drivers over the past few years, including Tanner Arms, Conner Popplewell, Brayton Laster, and most recently Hunter Wright for the ARCA Menards Series East opener this year at Five Flags Speedway.
