The son of former stuntman Stan Barrett, he began NASCAR racing in the early 1990s, starting with the Busch Series in 1992. Seven years later, he started racing in the Cup Series, making his series debut with Donlavey Racing. Barrett has since run part-time across NASCAR's top three series, sometimes as an owner/driver. Barrett has also competed in the IndyCar Series, running four races in 2009 for Team 3G.
Barrett first started racing when he was 16 [1] in karts, winning 21 races in 28 starts. [2] In 1992, Barrett started racing in NASCAR's Busch North Series, his debut coming at the Big Apple Food Stores 200 at Oxford Plains Speedway at the age of 19; Barrett finished 21st, eleven laps behind race winner Joe Bessey. [3] He also ran in the NASCAR Dash Series, funding the car with money earned as a stuntman for the movie Freejack . Despite running as high as second in points, crashes relegated his final finish in the standings to sixth. [4]
During the 1992 season, Busch Series driver Clifford Allison was killed in a crash at Michigan International Speedway, leaving a ride open for Barrett. [4] He made a few limited starts with his own team in the series for several years, and in his sixth career start, finished 5th at the spring race at Atlanta in 1996. [5]
For the following two years, he drove for Pro-Tech Motorsports [6] and NorthStar Motorsports, recording an eighth-place finish at Bristol with the latter. [7] In 1999, Barrett ran a partial Busch slate with Galaxy Motorsports, but left the team in the middle of the season when management suggested he would be replaced for an upcoming race at Watkins Glen International. [8]
In 2003, he signed with Roush Racing and finished in the top-ten four times, but Odoban ended its sponsorship after 15 races, forcing the team to close down. [4] He returned to driving his own car for the remainder of the season, but only finished one race at Lowe's Motor Speedway. [9] Barrett continued driving for his team in 2004, and joined DCT Motorsports for the 2005 season, [1] scoring his only top ten of the season at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. [10] In 2006, Barrett ran a variety of Busch events for MacDonald Motorsports and McGill Motorsports, [11] and ran some races for Stanton Barrett Motorsports in 2007. [12] For the 2008 NAPA Auto Parts 200 at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, Barrett fielded a ride for himself and his father Stan. In a race marred by rain, the two finished 25th and 39th, respectively. [4]
The following year, Barrett joined Rick Ware Racing. [13] He raced for them on a part-time schedule from 2009 to 2016 until he joined MBM Motorsports and B. J. McLeod Motorsports.
