Curtis B. Piercy^[1] (born July 1, 1962 – March 21, 2004) was an American professional stock car racing driver. He competed in the ARCA Re/Max Series from 1992 to 2000.

Piercy began his racing career driving demolition derby cars.^[2]

In 1992, Piercy made his debut in the ARCA Hooters SuperCar Series at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds dirt-track, driving the No. 88 Chevrolet for Ron Turpin, where he started and finished in 37th after running only nine laps due to engine issues. He then made another start at DuQuoin the following year, this time driving the No. 78 Oldsmobile, where he finished 36th due to a crash three laps in the race. It was also during this year that he tested a NASCAR Winston Cup Series car at Daytona International Speedway.^[3] Afterwards, Piercy made a start in the NASCAR Busch All-Star Tour at Mason Speedway, where he finished nineteenth.^[4] He then attempted one ARCA race in 1995 at Salem Speedway, but ultimately failed to qualify.

In 1996, Piercy ran fifteen ARCA races, primarily driving for Ron Turpin, where he achieved a best finish of sixth at Salem and finished tenth in the final points standings. He then made seventeen starts for Turpin the following year, this time getting a best finish of twelfth at the Illinois State Fairgrounds dirt-track, and finished eleventh in the points.

In 1998, Piercy ran the full schedule for Turpin, where he achieved two top-ten finishes, both at Springfield and DuQuoin, with a best result of eighth at the former event, on his way to finish seventh in the final points standings.^[3] He then ran full-time again the following year, where he achieved two top-ten finishes with a best result of fourth at Berlin Raceway on his way to finish eleventh in the points, before switching to a part time schedule in 2000. After getting two more top-tens that year, he retired from racing after Talladega Superspeedway, where he finished in nineteenth.^[4]

Piercy, alongside his wife Linda, owned both Piercy Auto Body and Piercy Powder Coating, companies based in Carlock, Illinois.^[3]

On March 23, 2004, it was reported that a plane that Piercy was flying had gone missing. Piercy, along with six other passengers, including his wife Linda, Don Maurer and his wife Amy, Brad Webb and his girlfriend Erica Edgington, were said to also have been on board the plane, as all six were flying back from attending the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series race at Darlington Raceway held that week.^[5][6] The remains of the plane were found two days later in a wooded area of Little Black Mountain in Harlan County, Kentucky, where the bodies of Piercy and the other passengers were found dead in the plane.^[5]
