Racing career[]
Early career and regional stock car racing[]
White spent 30 years drag racing in Canada, before deciding to switch to stock car racing in 2009.[1] That year, he ran five races in the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, with a best finish of 11th in his series debut at Autodrome Saint-Eustache.[2] The following year, he ran eleven of thirteen races, recording a top ten at the season-opener at Delaware Speedway.[3] At the end of the year, he was named Rookie of the Year.[4]
In 2014, White made a start in the American Canadian Tour, competing in the season-ending race at ; he finished 22nd after starting 33rd.[5]
National series[]
In 2009, White made his Camping World Truck Series debut for Mario Gosselin at Martinsville Speedway, finishing 23rd after starting 34th.[6]
In 2012, White was hired by SR² Motorsports to run as a road course ringer for the Nationwide Series race at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. In the No. 24, he finished a career-high 18th. Before the 2014 Drive to Stop Diabetes 300 at Bristol Motor Speedway, White formed Motorsports Business Management with driver Carl Long as principal.[1] The team made its racing debut as MBM Motorsports at the race with Matt Carter as driver of the No. 13.[7] For six more races in 2014, White fielded rides for himself, Long and Mike Wallace, failing to qualify for four and not finishing all six races they had qualified.[8][9][10]
In 2015, White and Long were joined by team owners Rick Ware and Curtis Key as partners,[11] and the team eventually added the No. 40 team.[7] Before the Winn-Dixie 300 at Talladega Superspeedway, White was penalized 15 drivers and owners points for an unsecured ballast.[12]
On July 13, White announced that he would make his Sprint Cup Series debut at the 5-hour Energy 301 in Loudon for Circle Sport, the first Native American to attempt a Cup Series race in series history.[13] After qualifying 42nd, he finished 39th, eleven laps down.[14]
Personal life[]
From Kahnawake, Quebec,[15] White is of Mohawk descent.[4]
On March 30, 2016, White turned himself in for his involvement in a tobacco smuggling ring. The circle, targeted by Sûreté du Québec's MYGALE project, began in 2014 and had smuggled at least 158 transports to Canada, including 2,294 tons of tobacco worth $530 million.[16] The tobacco was then sold to First Nations persons in the country.[17] On April 4, he was indefinitely suspended by NASCAR.[18]
