Dale Shearer (racing driver)

Shearer made his ARCA Re/Max Series debut in 2008, driving his self-owned No. 73 Ford at the Illinois State Fairgrounds, where he would finish 28th due to handling issues. He would make two more starts at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds and Salem Speedway. He would make two more starts the following year with a best finish of 27th at Berlin Raceway. After not competing in the series the following year, Shearer would return in 2011, making starts at Springfield and DuQuoin. He would enter in five more races in 2012, and would earn a best finish of 17th at Winchester Speedway.

In 2014, Shearer would run five races during the season, and in the last race of the year at Kansas Speedway, he was involved in a multi-car crash involving Galen Hassler and Tom Berte, finishing 26th. He would run a majority of his races from 2015 to 2018 with his own team.

In 2019, Shearer would run the No. 69 Ford in collaboration with Kimmel Racing at Madison International Speedway, where he would finish 18th and last due to clutch issues.[1] He would run in two more races at Elko Speedway and Springfield.

After not running in ARCA competition from 2020 to 2022, Shearer announced that he would return to the series with his own team, now Shearer Speed Racing, in the No. 98 Toyota for select events in 2023.[2] He later announced that he would run the full ARCA Menards Series East season that year as well.[3]
