London McKenzie has been added to the ARCA Menards Series East circuit for 2025, running the full season for CW Motorsports, CW announced Feb. 26.
McKenzie will drive the No. 93, which was piloted by CW owner Caleb Costner in the season-opening ARCA Menards Series race at Daytona International Speedway. 2025 marks his ARCA debut.
He was the 2024 INEX Semi-Pro National Asphalt champion.
“I believe my success in a Legend car will help me to stay calm and make the right decision, especially when under pressure,” the 15-year-old McKenzie said in a team release. “It’s no secret that when a driver gets up front racing for the lead, it can become very stressful and difficult to avoid mistakes. Although no one’s perfect, I truly believe after years of improving and eventually having the opportunity to lead in national races, it’s really helped me become a more relaxed and confident driver during stressful moments. Hopefully I can implement this, especially when going into my first races.”
Added Costner: “I couldn’t be more excited to welcome London to our team. I have high expectations for our group this year to be even more competitive week in and week out. Adding London to our roster in the [No.] 93 shows the talent level we’re seeking to bring to the track.”
In 2024, CW ran the full East schedule with both the No. 93 and No. 39, the latter piloted by DL Wilson, who has announced plans to run a limited schedule in the series this year. The No. 93 was driven by a variety of competitors.
