We’re proud to announce Brad Pattan as our 38th Racemaster honoree. A true testament to dedication and excellence in our sport, Pattan’s journey began four decades ago when he first started racing as an Emmett high school student.

Throughout the years, Pattan has achieved numerous milestones that showcase his racing prowess. His accomplishments include securing track championships, clinching victory in the 1988 Western Tour (a challenging three-race series spanning Seattle, Firebird, and Sacramento), past Nightfire Bracketeer winner (2017) and Bracketeer Allstar honor back in 2022.

Today, Pattan continues to demonstrate his passion for the sport, competing in the Super Pro class with his signature “Notorious Racing” Firebird. His commitment to racing extends beyond personal achievement, as he now mentors the next generation of drivers, his grandson Jaxson Gonzales in the Junior Dragster category.
