Josh Berry enters the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season poised for a significant career milestone, taking the wheel of the iconic No. 21 Wood Brothers Racing Ford.
Hailing from Hendersonville, Tennessee, Berry's journey to the Cup Series began at the age of eight when he received his first go-kart. His early success in local Legend Car races marked the beginning of a promising
racing career that would later see him excel in virtual racing avenues.
It was Berry's prowess in online racing that captured the attention of none other than Dale Earnhardt Jr., a pivotal moment that paved the way for him to join JR Motorsports. There, Berry's talent blossomed further as he dominated in Late Model Stock Cars, securing numerous victories and championships. Among his accolades are the 2017 CARS Tour Late Model Stock Car championship, a triumph in the prestigious 2019 Valley Star Credit Union 300 at Martinsville Speedway, and the 2020 NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series national title.
Berry's rise continued when he was elevated to one of JR Motorsports' entries in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. In a standout achievement, he secured his first series victory in 2021 in just his 13th career start. Throughout his tenure in the Xfinity Series with JR Motorsports, Berry added four more wins to his name, solidifying his reputation as a consistent contender for the championship title.
He then joined Stewart-Haas Racing in 2024, where he spent his rookie season in the Cup Series driving the No. 4 car.
As he prepares to write the next chapter in his racing career with Wood Brothers Racing, Berry aims to build upon the legacy of the many legends who have piloted the No. 21 car before him.
Beyond the track, Berry resides in Statesville, North Carolina, with his wife, Ginny, and their daughters, Mackenzie and Charlotte
