Todd Berrier Crew Chief

Furniture Row Racing Birthdate: May 29, 1970 Hometown: Kernersville, N.C. Residence: Denver, Colo.

Spouse: Ginger Children: Cooper (12/30/06) Spencer (11/03/09)

Todd Berrier joined Furniture Row Racing as the team’s crew chief for the final 17 Sprint Cup races of the 2012 season. His first race directing the No. 78 Chevrolet was in the Brickyard 400 (July 29) at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. A NASCAR veteran of nearly 20 years, Berrier has worked with many of the sport’s top competitors, including Dale Earnhardt, Mike Skinner, Kevin Harvick, Jeff Burton, Bobby Labonte and his current driver, Kurt Busch. As a crew chief for the past 16 years in NASCAR’s three major series – Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck -- Berrier has had his share of success. His impressive Sprint Cup resume, heading into the 2013 season, is highlighted with eight wins – including the Daytona 500 and Brickyard 400 – 60 top-fives and 133 top-10s. Berrier’s crew chief accomplishments also include 13 Nationwide wins, four truck wins and a Nationwide season championship. He also directed wins from his crew chief perch in each of NASCAR’s annual non-point races – Sprint All-Star Race (2007 with Harvick), Budweiser Shootout (2008 with Harvick) and the Daytona 500 qualifying race (2011 with Burton). Growing up in North Carolina, the hotbed of stock car country, Berrier always had a passion for auto racing. Following his 1988 graduation from Robert B Glenn High School in Kernersville, N.C. he began working on late model cars that competed at local racetracks. Berrier’s big break came in August 1993 when he was hired as a fabricator for the renowned NASCAR team of Richard Childress Racing (RCR). He also worked as a shock specialist at RCR and was a member of Skinner’s team which captured the inaugural NASCAR truck series championship in 1995. In 1997 RCR promoted Berrier to the crew chief role for Jay Sauter’s entry in the truck series. He spent three years tuning Sauter’s truck, scoring four victories and top-10 point finishes in each season. Berrier became Harvick’s crew chief in the Nationwide Series in 2000 and led the young RCR driver to the Nationwide season championship the following year. Harvick’s 2001 Nationwide championship record included five wins, 20 top-fives, 24 top-10s and four poles.

Berrier was elevated to a full time Sprint Cup crew chief position in 2002 for RCR driver Jeff Green. After one season with Green, Berrier was reunited with Harvick, who was competing in the Cup series. With Berrier as crew chief, Harvick won eight times, including two prestigious wins -- the 2003 Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis and the 2007 Daytona 500. Berrier also directed Harvick to post-regular season Chase appearances in 2006, 2007 and 2008. The team of Berrier and Harvick broke up following the ninth race of the 2009 season as Berrier became crew chief for RCR drivers Casey Mears and later in the year for Jeff Burton. Berrier and RCR ended their 18-year association in July 2011. Berrier joined JTG Daugherty Racing as crew chief for driver Bobby Labonte at the start of the 2012 season. He worked at JTG before joining Furniture Row Racing.

2007 NASCAR implemented some dramatic changes in 2007, and in order to adjust to the evolving field, Furniture Row Racing made dynamic enhancements to its program in the off season by adding key new hires and purchasing additional new equipment. 2008 Furniture Row Racing had its best season to date in 2008 with Joe Nemechek handling the controls of the team’s No. 78 Chevrolet Impala. The team qualified for 32 of 36 Cup races, shattering its previous best mark of 21 starts. The team also recorded its best-career finish of 11th – at the fall Cup race in Talladega. The No. 78 team also captured its first career pole when Nemechek qualified No. 1 at the Talladega spring race. 2009 Due to the national and global economic downturn in late 2008, Furniture Row Racing ran a limited schedule in 2009 with its new driver Regan Smith, the 2008 NASCAR Sprint Cup Rookie of the Year. Smith entered 20 races under the Furniture Row Racing banner and qualified in 18. He had two top-15 finishes – 12th at the July Daytona race and 15th at the April Talladega race. 2010 Following the 2009 season, Furniture Row Racing made an even stronger commitment to the future of the program. The team announced that it would run the full 36-race Sprint Cup schedule in 2010 and also made key personnel moves with the hiring of Mark McArdle as managing director of competition and Pete Rondeau as car chief (who was later promoted to crew chief). Smith and the Furniture Row Racing team continued its improvement in 2010, qualifying in all 36 Cup races for the first time in the franchise history. Smith came on strong during the second half of the season, scoring a number of top-20 finishes, including three top-13s in the final seven races. 2011 Furniture Row Racing enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2011. Smith’s seventh-place finish in the season-opening Daytona 500 was Furniture Row Racing’s first career top-10 result. Two months after Daytona, Smith scored the organization’s first career victory on May 7 at the prestigious Southern 500 at Darlington (S.C.) Raceway. In total, the 2011 season saw the Furniture Row Chevrolet claim one win, two top-fives and five top-10s. Four of the top-10s were in NASCAR’s four biggest races – Daytona 500 (7th), Southern 500 (1st), Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway (8th) and the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway (3rd). 2012 Call 2012 the year of major change for Furniture Row Racing. In mid July the team hired veteran Todd Berrier, who took over the crew chief role, starting with the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. In late September Furniture Row Racing announced a driver change with former NASCAR champion Kurt Busch replacing Regan Smith. Busch took over the driving duties with six races remaining. He closed out the season with three consecutive top-10s, marking the first time a Furniture Row Racing driver strung together three straight top-10s. Furniture Row Racing ended the 2012 season with one top-five and six top-10s.

His many duties as general manager include overseeing team operations in the various departments, acting as the liaison between the Denver-based Furniture Row Racing and its partners and directing the growth and development of the overall program. Before transitioning to a motorsports executive role, Garone worked as a crew member in many key areas of an auto racing organization He spent six successful seasons (1989-1994) as crew chief for Arvada, Colo. driver Rick Carelli in NASCAR’s Southwest and Winston West Tour circuits and the Craftsman Truck Series.

In 1995 Garone joined NASCAR’s elite Cup series as a suspension specialist and an over-the-wall front-tire changer for Bill Elliott Racing. He later advanced to the crew chief role for the legendary Bill Elliott. After spending four seasons with Bill Elliott Racing (1995-1998), Garone joined PPI Motorsports in 1999.

From 2001 through 2003, Garone worked directly for NASCAR.
