Bryan Reffner (born November 6, 1963) is an American former NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series driver. He was also a champion in the American Speed Association.
Reffner moved to the American Speed Association in 1994, and became the 1995 ASA champion.
1999 turned out to be a short year for him, as he ran only thirteen races. He started the year signed to drive for a new two-truck operation, Ridge Gate Motion Sports, owned by Mike Clark and Dominic Dobson. However, he left the team early in the season as he felt the team had not lived up to its obligations, and spent the year with Conely Racing, running thirteen races. In 2000 however, he had a breakthrough year, driving for Team Menard. He won his first career race at Texas Motor Speedway, (a race that unfortunately marked the death of Tony Roper) and having sixteen top-tens, finishing ninth in the points. Four races into 2001 however, Team Menard suspended operations, and Reffner ran just a handful of races, for Conely and TKO Motorsports. He had three top-tens during that season. He ran three races in 2002, his best finish a thirteenth at Michigan. He also made his Busch Series debut at Michigan. Driving the No. 0 for Conely, he started 25th and finished 29th. In 2003, he made his last two CTS starts to date, driving his self-owned No. 80 at Richmond and Homestead.
In 2003 he returned to the American Speed Association, and finished sixth in points.
In 2005, Reffner made two starts for Smith Bros. Racing, but failed to finish higher than 35th. He also made a failed attempt at qualifying for the NEXTEL Cup Phoenix race with Competitive Edge Motorsports. He also was leading the points in the American Stockcar League series going into the final three races of 2005 and was declared the ASL Champion when the final races were canceled.
