Mikey Wheeler is a third-generation dirt track racer carrying on a proud family tradition behind the wheel. Born with racing in his blood, Mikey began his career at just five years old at the legendary Red Bluff Outlaws in Red Bluff, California — a proving ground for many of today’s top drivers.

Since that first race, Mikey has developed into a highly accomplished young driver, earning numerous wins and championships across the West Coast and now on the East Coast. His natural talent, smooth driving style, and relentless work ethic have made him one of the standout up-and-coming names in grassroots racing.

Today, Mikey competes in the Restricted Micro division at Millbridge Speedway in Salisbury, North Carolina, where he continues to sharpen his skills against some of the toughest competition in the country. His passion for the sport and commitment to continuous growth recently earned him a spot in the Race Face Next Class of 2026, a national program recognizing the next generation of rising racing talent.

Guided by his family’s racing heritage and driven by his own determination to succeed, Mikey is on a mission to keep climbing the ranks — one race, one win, and one lesson at a time.
