Jeb Bootle

2026, Short Course

Jeb Bootle was born and raised in Yemassee, SC, in a close-knit family of four. Although he was raised a country boy, Jeb would rather work on his race cars in the shop and study how to get better on the track than hunt and fish. Jeb is a graduate of Colleton Preparatory Academy in Walterboro, SC. In high school, Jeb stepped away from baseball and football to pursue his dreams in racing. When Jeb isn't in the race shop wrenching on his race cars, he works in his family's logging business and does ATV & UTV repair and services out of the race shop. In his free time, he enjoys hanging out with family and friends, playing video games/iracing, watching racing, and working out.For as long as he can remember, Jeb has always dreamed of making a mark in the history of motorsports. His dad didn't grow up racing; however, he started racing in his 30s in the first-ever sport UTV in 2008. His dad did grassroots racing at local events in UTVs, ATVs, and dirt ovals, laying the foundation for Jeb's own start. When Jeb was seven, his dad put him behind the wheel, and his passion for racing has only grown since. Jeb's career started in off-road short-course racing; however, that didn't keep him from expanding his horizons into other forms of motorsports, such as stock car racing on both asphalt and dirt. Jeb eventually found his way back into off-road short-course racing and has continued to grow his career since.Jeb now owns and drives for father-son team, Bootle Motorsports. In 2026, his primary focus was on the Champ Off-Road Racing series, where he raced in the two premier divisions of UTV short-course racing: Pro Stock SXS and Pro SXS. This young man started out as an unknown youth from the backwoods of South Carolina, and with hard work and dedication, he now races alongside some of the best racers in the world and is an inspiration to fans, followers, and fellow racers from local series where he grew up racing!

Growing up, Off-road is all Jeb has ever known. Jeb was raised in an outdoorsy household; his family and friends loved driving UTVs and ATVs around the countryside or going trail riding every year in the Appalachian Mountains. If he wasn't doing that, he was at the racetrack with his dad, experiencing the thrill of adrenaline and speed. Off-roading has shaped Jeb into the young man he is today.Jeb's ultimate goal in off-road racing is to make a living from doing what he loves the most. Whether it's short-course or desert racing, UTVs or trucks, Jeb enjoys staying active in the industry no matter the discipline. Jeb plans to take every opportunity presented;; he loves being challenged and is open to learning new tricks of the trade. As his career progresses, he hopes to better his skills in all aspects of racing, not only as a racecar driver, but in business acumen, media and public relations, teamwork, developing and testing new ideas or technology, and everything else the industry has to offer!
