NASCAR driver
Terry Jones (born July 30, 1971) is a Canadian businessman and stock car racing team owner. He co-owns Rette Jones Racing , an ARCA Menards Series and ARCA Menards Series West team.
Career
In 1995, Jones formed Jones Group International, an Amherstburg, Ontario -based demolition company. The firm regularly sponsored Jones during his racing career.[ 1]
Jones began racing in the ARCA Re/Max Series in 2003.
In 2010, Jones joined Team Gill Racing to race in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series ; the move was spurred by Jones' decision to race in NASCAR , a sanctioning body that he considered "a little more professional" than ARCA.[ 2]
In 2014, Jones signed with Win-Tron Racing for the season opener at Daytona International Speedway .[ 1] The following year, he partnered with spotter and friend Mark Rette to form Rette Jones Racing ; Rette joked in 2019 that while he is the team's "sweat equity", Jones is "the money." Although Jones' racing career was placed on hiatus after a motorcycle accident, he continued his involvement with RJR.[ 3] Serving as owner-driver , Jones finished 19th in RJR's debut ARCA race at Daytona, where he finished 19th after being involved in a late accident.[ 4] The team also fielded a Truck program for Chad Finley , with Jones running the Talladega event.[ 5] In 2016, an attempted return to the Truck Talladega race with Jones was canceled after he suffered a leg injury.[ 6]
At the 2017 ARCA season opener, Jones recorded a career-best finish of second; he was leading the race until Austin Theriault passed him with eight laps remaining.[ 7]
