My Favorites with Rajah Caruth

Rajah Caruth is one of NASCAR’s most promising up-and-coming racers. The 20-year-old from our nation’s capital started racing online in 2018 and quickly took his talents from a video screen to the race track. Now a member of the NASCAR Drive for Diversity program, he’s on a fast trajectory to success. He’s competing part time in both the NASCAR Xfinity Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, all while chasing a championship in the ARCA Menards Series.
