I hate to do this, but despite all of the sources in the articles and my WP:BEFORE I have had severe difficulty in finding news pieces that are not republished PR pieces about Rabenold. This article is well written; however, it seems that almost all of the sources are in some way WP:SPS and I cannot find enough non-self published sources (counting PR releases as self published sources) to confer notability. The driver did run the second half of the 2009 ARCA series, so there is some possibility for notability, but from my research I have been unable to find anything to push this person over WP:GNG and they do not have any notability confered per the requirements in WP:NMOTORSPORT either.

Delete per above. A side note: I honestly don't know how many articles like these there are on here; but I've noticed an uptick in these sorts of articles on WP:NASCAR. Cheers, and carpe diem! Nascar9919 (he/him • t • c) 04:51, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
