Robert "Robb" Brent (born February 6, 1987) is an American professional stock car racing driver who most recently competed in what is now the ARCA Menards Series in 2011. He competed full-time in the same series in 2009 and 2010, finishing tenth and eleventh in points, respectively, in those years. He also made three starts in the NASCAR Truck Series in 2008 and one Nationwide (now Xfinity) Series start in 2010.
Career

Brent was called by RAB Racing to drive their No. 09 Ford at the road course race at Road America in 2010. The team, which was running multiple drivers that year, had already signed Boris Said to drive those races for them, but he was unavailable for this race, because he opted to compete in the Cup Series road course race at Sonoma instead, which was on the same weekend as the Road America Nationwide race. In looking for a driver, Said and RAB owner Robby Benton chose Brent, a full-time ARCA Racing Series driver for Allgaier Motorsports, after his strong finishes in the road course races in that series at Palm Beach and New Jersey Motorsports Park earlier in the season.{{cite web |first=Mary Jo |last=Buchanan |url=https://bleacherreport.com/articles/407299-robb-brent-races-into-road-america-for-nationwide-debut |title=Robb Brent Races into Road America for Nationwide Debut |website=Bleacher Report |publisher=Turner Broadcasting System |date=June 16, 2010 |accessdate=March 17, 2020}}
