Raymond J. Ciccarelli (born January 20, 1970) is an American professional stock car racing driver.
In 2017, Ciccarelli made his Truck Series debut in the Eldora Dirt Derby, driving the No.
[1][2] In 2019, Ciccarelli acquired trucks, equipment, and owner points from the closed Premium Motorsports No.
Ciccarelli announced in June 2020 his retirement from NASCAR as a driver and a team owner at the end of the 2020 season.
His announcement, which came in the form of a post on his Facebook page on June 10, was made on the same day as NASCAR's decision to ban the display of the Confederate battle flag from their events, a decision they made in the midst of the George Floyd protests due to the flag's longtime association with white supremacist groups.
While many NASCAR drivers praised the ban, Ciccarelli decried it, as he believed that it and other recent decisions by the sanctioning body ventured into the realm of politics.
[7] On November 19, when it was revealed on TobyChristie.com that Tim Viens was to continue as a driver for CMI, Ciccarelli told the website that he planned on driving in three to four races in 2021.
