TAYLOR REIMER & LANIE BUICE Lead Women’s Charge in 2026 ARCA With Martin’s Support

December 17, 2025

• NASCAR legend Mark Martin is backing TAYLOR REIMER as a potential breakout star for 2026, praising her quick transition from sprint cars to stock cars after putting racing on hold for cheerleading at Oklahoma. With a P5 finish at Kansas to close 2025 and boyfriend Corey Heim as her racing mentor, Reimer has the support system to make noise on superspeedways like Daytona and Talladega.
• Pinnacle Racing Group’s lineup features both REIMER and LANIE BUICE as part of what could be the strongest women’s field ARCA has seen, with about 10 women confirmed across the national and regional series. Martin specifically called out this group as having “lots of personalities to cover” and predicted “some will become big stars” – exactly the kind of endorsement from a racing legend that opens doors.
• The 2026 season sets up as a proving ground for women like REIMER, ISABELLA ROBUSTO, and JADE AVEDISIAN who are positioned to potentially reach victory lane. With Martin’s public support and a schedule that includes marquee tracks, we’re looking at a field where talent recognition is finally matching opportunity – and that’s overdue progress worth celebrating.
