Rick Redig-Tackman (born July 2, 2000) is an American professional stock car racing driver who competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series and ARCA Menards Series East, driving the No. 48 Chevrolet for Brad Smith Motorsports.

Racing career[edit]

Since 2019, Redig-Tackman has competed in the Mid-American Stock Car Series.[1] He had made his debut in the series in 2019, driving at the Milwaukee Mile, where he would finish 24th. In 2022, he would run the full season, where he would finish in the top-ten seven times with a win at Madison International Speedway on his way to finish fourth in the final point standings. It was also during this year that he would run two Bristol Dirt Nationals Event races at Bristol Motor Speedway. Redig-Tackman would return to the Mid-American Stock Car Series in 2023, where he currently has two wins at Kankakee County Speedway and Madison.[2][3][4]

On August 23, 2023, it was revealed that Redig-Tackman would make his ARCA Menards Series debut at the Milwaukee Mile, driving for Brad Smith Motorsports in the No. 48 Chevrolet while owner Brad Smith, who regularly drives that car, would run in the No. 69 Ford in collaboration with Kimmel Racing.[5][6] It would also be his debut in the ARCA Menards Series East, as it is a companion event with the main ARCA series. Redig-Tackman had received the ride after helping Smith rebuild the car that he ran with at Charlotte Motor Speedway earlier in the year. After placing fifteenth in the sole practice section, he would qualify sixteenth and go on to finish four laps down in fourteenth.[7]

Personal life[edit]

Redig-Tackman is the son of former ARCA competitor Rick Tackman Jr., who competed in the series from 2000 to 2017.[7]
