Jason White

Jason White is a part-time NASCAR driver in the Busch Series and drives the #08 GunBroker.com for Ashton Gray Racing Dodge. He was born in June 5, 1979 in Richmond, Virginia, and has been racing in NASCAR since he was 20 years old. White began racing go-carts when he was eleven, and has been racing part-time since. Before moving to Busch Series, White dominated the Virginia go-kart circuit. In a five-year stretch, Jason won six Virginia state titles and finished in the World Karting Association top-ten for three different classes of vehicles.

Jason White made his first starts in 1999, running the #28 for Larry Lockamy. He started 28th and finished 26th in a solid debut at IRP. He was then 43rd after an early crash at Bristol. The runs earned him a spot on Felix Sabates' #82 Chevy in a fill-in role in 2000. He ran the Channellock Chevy at South Boston, putting in his career best of 21st position. Then, he was 28th at Myrtle Beach. He next returned in 2002, running a race at Nashville for Frank Cicci. He finished 43rd at Nashville after an early engine problem. Fred Bickford then picked White up for three races, beginning with a 28th place finish at New Hampshire. His best run came at Nazareth, where he finished 22nd before adding a 37th at Charlotte

White's busiest year was 2003, when he earned 29th in points after a splitting rides at Davis Motorsports and Jay Robinson Racing. He ran mainly for JRR early in the year, finishing a best of 23rd at Gateway. Beginning at Nashville in June, White took over the #0 Davis Motorsports Chevy full-time. He ran solidly in that race, earning his best career finish of 17th. He would record one other top-20 finish at Pikes Peak, trying to do his best with the low-budget team. White was released following the Memphis race in favor of Kertus Davis. He returned to the series in four races in 2004, all for MacDonald Motorsports. After a pair of 33rds and a 42nd at Richmond, White earned his best run of the year at Milwaukee, finishing 29th. It was also the site of his best qualifying effort of the year: 28th.

Jason White teamed up in 2006 with the new Ashton Gray Racing. Despite being fast in practice, the team broke before qualifying in the spring Nashville race, meaning the team's debut would come at Nashville in June. He was 36th in that race and 30th at Milwaukee. Then at Gateway Jason finished 41st due to engine problems. Next race is the Emerson Radio 250 at Richmond International Raceway. White's team is expected to make five to seven more starts in 2006.
