Matthew Michael Gould (born January 8, 2006) is an American professional stock car racing driver. He competes part-time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, driving the No. 44 Chevrolet Silverado for Niece Motorsports. He has previously competed part-time in the ARCA Menards Series and ARCA Menards Series East.
Racing career
In 2019, Gould would compete in the Allison Legacy Series, where he would run eight races and finish ninth in the final standings with a best finish of fourth at both Orange County Speedway events. He would make one more start in the series the following year, where he would finish fourth at Anderson Speedway.
Gould would then move to the NASCAR Late Model stock series where he saw three wins in two years at Orange County Speedway, Florence Motor Speedway, and the Hickory Motor Speedway throughout 2021 and 2022.
In 2022, it was announced that Gould would make his debut in the ARCA Menards Series debut at the Milwaukee Mile, driving the No. 40 Chevrolet for Niece Motorsports. This also served as his ARCA Menards Series East debut, as it was a combination event with the main ARCA series. After qualifying twelfth, he would go on to finish one lap down in tenth position. It was later announced that Gould would compete in the season finale at Toledo Speedway, where he would start twelfth and go on to finish one lap down in eighth position.
In 2023, Gould would return to ARCA to run the race at Bristol Motor Speedway, driving the No. 42 Chevrolet for Cook Racing Technologies. After starting fifteenth, he would go on to finish 31st after running only twelve laps due to overheating issues.
On August 16, 2024, Niece Motorsports announced that Gould would make his Truck Series debut for them in the race at Milwaukee in their No. 44 truck. Unlike in his ARCA starts for the team, Gould will not be crew chiefed by his father Phil (who will stay with the No. 45 truck) in this race and Tom Ackerman will be his crew chief instead.
Personal life
Gould is the son of Phil Gould, who currently serves as the crew chief of the No. 45 truck for Niece Motorsports.
