MOORESVILLE, N.C. — The most successful driver in Alpha Prime Racing history is returning to the team for a third consecutive season.
Brennan Poole, from the Woodlands, Texas, will return to drive the No. 44 for the full O’Reilly Auto Parts Series schedule in 2026.
Poole comes off the best statistical season in team history, scoring five top-10 finishes, including two top-5 finishes at Rockingham and Martinsville.
The veteran averaged a 19th place finish on the way to scoring the most points ever for APR, breaking the 600-point barrier for the first time, and scoring back-to-back top-20 owner’s points finishes.
“He’s the best driver we’ve ever had,” said Tommy Joe Martins, co-owner of Alpha Prime Racing. “Getting this done was priority one for us.”
More information about sponsorship and team leadership will be announced at a later date.
