August H. Dean is an American stock car racing driver whose career in NASCAR's national touring divisions is centered on the Xfinity Series, where he compiled 26 career starts without a win or a podium finish. Before reaching that level, Dean built his foundation in the ARCA Menards Series, most notably driving for Win-Tron Racing across multiple seasons and for Mason Mitchell Motorsports, with whom he earned a win at Talladega in 2016. He also spent time in the Camping World Truck Series, running full-time for Young's Motorsports in 2019 and part-time for Hill Motorsports in subsequent years, experience that fed into his Xfinity Series work.[1]
