Alex Clubb Running Full-Time ARCA in 2027

Alex Clubb will compete full time in the ARCA Menards Series in 2027, he confirmed to Frontstretch.

Clubb will pilot his self-owned Clubb Racing Inc. No. 03 once again, marking his fourth full-time season. His father Brian Clubb will likely continue to serve as his crew chief once again. Brian has nine overall starts in the ARCA platform, though none in 2026.

“My goal is to get three top 10s and to finish top five in driver points,” Alex Clubb told Frontstretch. “I am looking forward to getting better equipment and being faster.”

Clubb finished seventh in points in 2026, albeit without any top 10s. Clubb drove his No. 03 to a 13th-place finish in the main-series owner points in 2026.

He earned a career-best two top 10s in the 2025 campaign, thereby earning a personal-best P6 in points, and currently has three top-10 points finishes.

In 106 career starts, Clubb has six top 10s, with a career-best result of eighth set three times, most recently at the Illinois State Fairgrounds in 2025.

CRI has five racecars in its fleet and is looking to acquire a sixth.

The organization also fielded Jeff Maconi in 19 of the 20 races in the No. 86, with that entry 15th in the owner standings. Maconi wound up 10th in points and has 31 career combined starts across the ARCA platform.

However, Maconi will not return full time in 2027, Clubb added. Maconi will drive the No. 86 in three races beginning with the season opener at Daytona International Speedway.

“Everything I do will be with Clubb,” Maconi added. “They’ve been amazing to me and helped me a ton in my career, and I wouldn’t want to run anywhere else!”

As a result, the No. 86 has an opening for 17 races, Clubb noted. The team has fielded the Nos. 03 and 86 full time for two seasons. While CRI also fielded the No. 83 in four events, marking the first time the team had three cars on track, Clubb does not plan to field that entry without a funded driver.
