John Wood (born March 15, 1962) is an American professional stock car racing driver who has previously competed in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East and ARCA Menards Series West.

Contents

Wood made his debut in the then NASCAR Winston West Series in 1997 at Mesa Marin Speedway, where he finished sixteenth due to rear end issues. He wouldn't make another start in the series until 2011, where he ran a partial schedule with Mike Naake and Mike Holleran. He then ran in the series for the next seven year, primarily driving for Holleran, where he achieved six top-ten finishes with a best points finish of seventh at 2014, and a best race finish of sixth at Colorado National Speedway in 2019. He also made seven starts in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East from 2017 to 2019, getting a best finish of fourteenth in his series debut at Berlin Raceway in 2017.

After not racing the previous year, Wood returned to the now ARCA Menards Series West, driving in four races with Kart Idaho Racing, finishing twelfth at Colorado, fifteenth at Irwindale Speedway, nineteenth at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Bullring, and nineteenth again at All American Speedway. He has not competed in the series since then. [1]
