Jerett Brooks

Jerett Brooks (born July 27, 1997) is an American racing driver. He mainly competes in short course off-road racing such as TORC: The Off-Road Championship, Lucas Oil Off Road Racing Series, and Championship Off-Road.

Brooks is a five-time off-road truck champion with three Pro Lite class titles in TORC (2014) and LOORRS (2016–2017) and two in LOORRS' Pro 2 division (2019–2020). Brooks has also competed in the Stadium Super Trucks and X Games.

Racing career

In his youth, Brooks often visited K1 Speed and built radio-controlled cars before switching to competitive trophy kart racing. In 2008, he debuted in Championship Off-Road Racing's Junior 1 Kart class. After three years in Junior Karts, he switched to LOORRS' Modified Karts and won two races in 2010. He returned to LOORRS in 2015.

In 2017, Brooks won in his LOORRS Pro 2 class debut at Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park. He claimed the series' Pro 2 championship in 2019 and 2020, the former of which made him the class's youngest champion at the age of 22. His Jerett Brooks Racing operation also won 2020 Team of the Year honors. When LOORRS folded after 2020, Brooks joined Championship Off-Road's Pro 2 class.

During the Stadium Super Trucks' inaugural season in 2013, Brooks debuted at Qualcomm Stadium before winning for the first time at Crandon International Off-Road Raceway. He continued racing in the series on a sporadic basis over the next two years, which included entering X Games Austin 2014 and 2015. Brooks returned to the series for the 2017 finale at Lake Elsinore Diamond as an injury replacement for Paul Morris; he finished second in the final race to beat Matthew Brabham for the title by one point. After not racing in SST in 2019 and 2020, Brooks rejoined the trucks at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in July 2021, where he led the most laps in the first race and fought with Robby Gordon for the win in the second before spinning on the final lap. Two months later, Brooks won the first race at the Grand Prix of Long Beach after using his brakes conservatively to have enough strength for the finish, a tactic that he called "pretty smart"; he finished runner-up in the second race to take the weekend victory.

Brooks retired from full-time racing after the 2022 season, where he won Championship Off-Road's Pro 2 title. Since then, he has occasionally returned to driving at marquee events like the Crandon World Championship.

Personal life A native of Alpine, California, Brooks was homeschooled in high school as his racing career interfered with his education. LOORRS Junior 2 Karts 8 2 6 N/A 379 7th LOORRS Modified Karts 10 0 1 N/A 527 8th
