Racing for Reinbold-Underwood Motorsports, the 20-year-old will contest 50 sprint car events as a Rookie of the Year contender while marking his fifth year in the 29-race midget series. His impressive background includes 84 midget feature starts and seven USAC national sprint car appearances in 2024.

Unlike most competitors who started in quarter midgets, Reinbold's racing career began at age 16 with a USAC National Midget event at Tulsa's Port City Raceway—his first-ever race in any category.

Reinbold will team up with veteran driver Mitchel Moles in a two-car effort. The team will run AME Electrical – Mesilla Valley Transportation sponsored machines, building on Moles' successful 2022 campaign.

Notable achievements include:

  • 2023 Xtreme Outlaw/POWRi victory at Oklahoma City's I-44 Riverside Speedway
  • Fifth place finish at the 2024 USAC Indiana Midget Week opener at Lawrenceburg Speedway
  • Leading contender for 2025 USAC National Sprint Car Rookie of the Year

Speaking on the differences between disciplines, Reinbold explains: "In a midget, you're turning left more with a tighter race car. Sprint cars require more right turns, have significantly more horsepower, and demand careful throttle control."
