After racing with Andy Hillenburg’s Fast Track Racing team for half of the 2022 ARCA Menards Series season and earning a ninth-place finish in the season-long championship, Zachary Tinkle and Fast Track Racing are pleased to announce that Tinkle will be competing for the ARCA Menards Series East championship in 2023.
Tinkle commented, “Racing with Andy Hillenburg and the Fast Track Racing team was a tremendous opportunity in the 2022 season. If it weren’t for Andy, I would not have ended up ninth in the ARCA Menards championship standings. This gave me the chance to get to know him and the team. I have full confidence in them and I think we’ve put together a great program for 2023 and I can’t wait to get back to the race track.”

Tinkle will be in the team’s No. 11 car for the 2023 season.
“I’m very honored that Andy trusts me to run Fast Track’s flagship number. I take great pride and responsibility to living up to the history,” Tinkle added.
When asked about Zachary Tinkle coming on board, Hillenburg reflected, “There are a lot of great up and coming drivers, but once in a while, one gets a little closer to your heart. I’ve watched Zachary since early on in his career and he has done very well while having to do it the hard way – much like myself earlier in my career. I really want to see what Zachary can do with a solid and planned effort. This is going to be a fun year.”

The ARCA Menards Series East season will consist of eight races at various tracks in multiple states. Four of the East races will be standalone events while the other four will be combination races with the ARCA Menards Series. One of those combination races will be at Tinkle’s ARCA home track: Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park. Races will be streamed live on FloRacing with delayed replays on the USA Network.
Marketing partnership opportunities are still available for the 2023 season.
