Alex Guenette (born April 25, 1996) is a Canadian professional

ARCA Racing Series.[1]

Racing career

Early years

Guenette began his racing career at the age of seven, his father and grandfather being professional race car drivers. Before stock cars, Guenette raced

World Series of Asphalt.[3] A longstanding tradition of Guenette's is to eat Tim Hortons on race mornings.[4]

ARCA Racing Series

Guenette ran one ARCA race, at Talladega Superspeedway in 2014 for Mario Gosselin, a fellow Canadian. He finished 20th, two laps down.[5]

NASCAR Pinty's Series

Guenette ran the entire

Autodrome St. Eustache. He received major funding from Motos Illimitees, DLGL, and Kawasaki.[6] Guenette was the series' most popular driver in 2013.[7] In 2014, he ran four races in the 39, but with grandfather Jacques Guenette as the owner. He posted a best finish of second, which he accomplished twice, once at St. Eustache and once at Circuit ICAR.[8]

NASCAR Camping World Truck Series

Guenette's first Truck start came for Gosselin, at

Turner Motorsports. In final practice, he posted the fastest 10-lap average.[12] He qualified twelfth and finished ninth[13] after a flat tire dropped him from sixth.[14]

NASCAR Xfinity Series

Guenette made his Xfinity debut on May 14, 2016 in the

King Autosport, finishing 26th.[15] Guenette did not return to NASCAR competition in 2017.[16]
In 2023, Guenette returned to NASCAR competition in the NASCAR Xfinity Series at the Chicago Street Course driving the #36 for DGM Racing.
