(Mooresville, NC – December 1, 2014) Beginning in the 2015 season, Will Carroll will make his ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards debut with Team BCR Racing and Development Team. Carroll plans to compete in a limited schedule in 2015, with the goal to run for a Championship and Rookie of the Year honors in 2016.
The Australian based driver began his racing career in 2002, where he competed in go-karts for six years. In 2007, Carroll transitioned to Quarter Midgets where he collected over 10 wins in four years. Carroll then went on to win the 2012 Speedway Victoria Drivers Championship in the Formula 500 Class (Micros), as well as 2012 Driver of the Year, Most Improved Driver and Stampede Series Winner.
Diversifying his driving experience even more, Carroll went onto win the 2013 SRA Rookie of the Year honors behind the wheel of a Sprint Car. With the tremendous amount of racing success in Australia, the 19-year-old driver made the decision in 2014 to come to the states to compete in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Pro Late Model Series at New Smyrna Speedway, where he captured three wins and the 2014 Championship.
“Team BCR is excited and proud to welcome Will to the team,” says Team Manager, Howard Bixman. “We’ve been working with Will over the last few years, where he has developed into a NASCAR Champion driving for Anthony Campi Racing (ACR 81). The next step in his career is the ARCA Racing Series, where this developmental driver will be competing at tracks such as Daytona International Speedway to the historic Salem Speedway. We are looking forward to being a part of this two-year development program with Will to further his career into the top ranks of NASCAR.”
Marketing partners and complete 2015 debut schedule will be announced at a later date.
