Todd Gilliland Parents

Todd Jeremy Gilliland’s induction into the world of racing started from the grassroots level. He ran full time in both ARCA Menards Series West and ARCA Menards Series East in 2016, and while doing so, Gilliland picked up six victories in the West and four in the East, etching his name as one of the most promising young talents. The same year he won the K&N Pro Series West championship. The following year, he replicated his feat and became a two-time champion in the same series.

Gilliland scored his first NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series win driving for Kyle Busch Motorsports in 2019. In just his fourth season driving trucks, Gilliland swam to victory lane yet again in 2021, but this time, for Front Row Motorsports. Gilliland is one of the few drivers who skipped the Xfinity series and directly moved up to the Cup in 2022.

However, looking at his top-five finish at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, it can be said that he did deserve it. This year, he is looking forward to bagging his first Cup Series win as the driver of the number 38 Front Row Motorsports Chevrolet.
