Terry Jones (born July 30, 1971) is a Canadian businessman and stock car racing team owner. He co-owns Rette Jones Racing, an ARCA Menards Series and ARCA Menards Series West team.

Career

In 1995, Jones formed Jones Group International, an Amherstburg, Ontario-based demolition company. The firm regularly sponsored Jones during his racing career.{{cite web|last=Nesbitt|first=Wally|url=https://www.insidetracknews.com/news/press-releases/item/2737-terry-jones-joins-win-tron-racing-for-arca-season-opener.html|title=Terry Jones Joins Win-Tron Racing for ARCA Season Opener|publisher=Inside Track News|date=January 24, 2014|accessdate=January 31, 2020}}

Jones began racing in the ARCA Re/Max Series in 2003.

In 2010, Jones joined Team Gill Racing to race in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series; the move was spurred by Jones' decision to race in NASCAR, a sanctioning body that he considered "a little more professional" than ARCA.{{cite news|last=Jones|first=Quincy|url=https://www.pressreader.com/canada/windsor-star/20100612/284193691991139|title=Driver Terry Jones has landed a spot in the NASCAR Truck Series.|newspaper=Windsor Star|via=PressReader|date=June 12, 2010|accessdate=January 31, 2020}}

In 2014, Jones signed with Win-Tron Racing for the season opener at Daytona International Speedway. The following year, he partnered with spotter and friend Mark Rette to form Rette Jones Racing; Rette joked in 2019 that while he is the team's "sweat equity", Jones is "the money." Although Jones' racing career was placed on hiatus after a motorcycle accident, he continued his involvement with RJR.{{cite web|last=Segal|first=Davey|url=https://hometracks.nascar.com/2019/08/14/mark-rette-we-do-a-whole-heck-of-a-lot-with-a-whole-lot-less-than-most/|title=Mark Rette: "We Do A Whole Heck Of A Lot With A Whole Lot Less Than Most"|publisher=NASCAR Home Tracks|date=August 14, 2019|accessdate=January 31, 2020}} Serving as owner-driver, Jones finished 19th in RJR's debut ARCA race at Daytona, where he finished 19th after being involved in a late accident.{{cite web|url=http://www.onpitroad.com/2015/04/30/arca-rette-jones-racing-this-is-talladega/|title=ARCA: Rette Jones Racing: This Is Talladega|work=On Pit Road|date=April 30, 2015|accessdate=January 31, 2020}} The team also fielded a Truck program for Chad Finley, with Jones running the Talladega event.{{cite web|url=https://speedwaydigest.com/index.php/news/nascar-truck-series-news/27851-terry-jones-returns-to-nascar-camping-world-truck-series-at-talladega|title=Terry Jones Returns To NASCAR Camping World Truck Series At Talladega|work=Speedway Digest|date=October 23, 2015|accessdate=January 31, 2020}} In 2016, an attempted return to the Truck Talladega race with Jones was canceled after he suffered a leg injury.{{cite web|url=https://www.speedwaydigest.com/index.php/news/nascar-truck-series-news/34527-driver-injury-forces-rette-jones-racing-to-withdraw-from-talladega|title= Driver injury forces Rette Jones Racing to withdraw from Talladega|work=Speedway Digest|date=October 19, 2015|accessdate=January 31, 2020}}

At the 2017 ARCA season opener, Jones recorded a career-best finish of second; he was leading the race until Austin Theriault passed him with eight laps remaining.{{cite news|last=Long|first=Mark|url=https://www.sltrib.com/sports/autoracing/2017/02/19/auto-racing-austin-theriault-wins-accident-ended-arca-race-at-daytona/|title=Auto racing: Austin Theriault wins accident-ended ARCA race at Daytona|agency=AP|newspaper=The Salt Lake Tribune|date=February 19, 2017|accessdate=January 31, 2020}}
