Ryan James Huff (born April 13, 2001) is an American professional stock car racing driver. He competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series, driving the No. 36 Ford Fusion for his own team, Ryan Huff Motorsports. He has previously competed in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.
Racing career
In 2020, Huff made his debut in the ARCA Menards Series for Fast Track Racing in the team's No. 10 car in the season-opener at Daytona. It then looked like Huff would be the full-time driver of that car that year, replacing Tommy Vigh Jr., as he drove the car in the next five races. However, Fast Track replaced him with Mike Basham for the race at Iowa as well as other races throughout the season.
Huff made his NASCAR Truck Series debut in the second race of the doubleheader at Kansas in 2020 driving the No. 00 for Reaume Brothers Racing.{{cite web |url=https://www.jayski.com/2020/07/23/ryan-huff-to-make-truck-series-debut-at-kansas-speedway-with-reaume-bros-racing/ |title=Ryan Huff to make Truck Series debut at Kansas Speedway with Reaume Bros. Racing |website=Jayski's Silly Season Site |date=July 23, 2020 |access-date=July 25, 2020}} He finished 19th in the race. Huff ran one more Truck Series race in 2020 at Richmond in the Cram Racing Enterprises No. 41.
In 2021, Huff was scheduled to drive part-time in the Truck Series for CMI Motorsports in their No. 83 truck beginning at the season-opener at Daytona.{{cite web |url=https://twitter.com/TalkingNCircles/status/1355568825723482113 |title=(Twitter post) |website=Twitter |publisher=Talking In Circles |date=January 30, 2021 |access-date=May 12, 2022 |quote="@CMIMotorsports owner Ray Ciccarelli told @SiriusXMNASCAR this morning that @driverRyanHuff will drive the team’s No. 83 entry in multiple races in 2021 including the season opening NextEra Energy Resources 250 at @DAYTONA."}} When it was announced that Tim Viens would instead be driving the No. 83 truck in that race, CMI revealed in a tweet that Huff would instead drive for them in other races. However, Huff did not end up running any races for the team in 2021.{{cite web |url=https://twitter.com/CMIMotorsports/status/1359592118809997312 |title=(Twitter post) |website=Twitter |publisher=CMI Motorsports |date=February 10, 2021 |access-date=May 12, 2022 |quote="Ryan Huff won’t be driving the #83 at Daytona. The #83 will be driven by Tim Viens. Huff is still slated to drive multiple races this year with us."}} Huff started his own ARCA team that year, Huff Racing, with himself driving the No. 36 car in the races at Talladega and Pocono. He and his team also entered the races at Daytona and Talladega in 2022. Huff returned to the Truck Series for the spring race at Kansas in 2022, driving the No. 46 for G2G Racing, which looked very similar to the truck at Darlington which Brennan Poole drove.
In 2024, it was revealed that Huff would attempt the season-opening race for the Truck Series in his own No. 36 Toyota, using a truck purchased from Kyle Busch Motorsports before the aforementioned teams assets were purchased by Spire Motorsports.{{Cite web |url=https://tobychristie.com/nascar/jennifer-jo-cobb-ryan-huff-added-to-nascar-truck-series-daytona-entry-list/ |title=Jennifer Jo Cobb, Ryan Huff Added to NASCAR Truck Series Daytona Entry List |last=Srigley |first=Joseph |date=February 14, 2024 |website=TobyChristie.com |access-date=February 14, 2024}}
