Rise Motorsports is excited to announce that Bobby Earnhardt will compete full-time during the 2026 ARCA Menards Series season.
The upcoming season will mark Earnhardt’s first full-season run with Rise Motorsports as the organization continues its growth within ARCA’s national platform.
A fourth-generation racer and member of one of stock car racing’s most recognizable families, Earnhardt is the son of Kerry Earnhardt and the grandson of seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion and NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt. The 38-year-old has experience in ARCA and the NASCAR Xfinity Series and has a proven commitment to steady development behind the wheel. His arrival represents a major step forward as Rise Motorsports builds momentum heading into 2026.
“We’re thrilled to have Bobby join our program for the 2026 season,” said team owner Tim Goulet. “He’s hungry, he’s focused and he connects with fans in a way that fits perfectly with the vision of our team. This is a big move for Rise Motorsports, and we’re ready to take the next step together.”
Earnhardt echoed that excitement.
“I’m incredibly grateful for this opportunity with Rise Motorsports,” Earnhardt said. “This team believes in what we can accomplish and that fires me up. We’re building something strong for 2026 and I can’t wait to hit the track and show what this group is capable of.”
