Brett Mann began his racing career at the age of 16.  His father, Jim Mann, owned the number 19 sprint car, which raced locally at tracks in Northern Indiana, Southern Michigan, and Ohio.  When Brett turned 16, Jim decided to let him drive the car.  Brett primarily raced at tracks such as Warsaw Speedway in Warsaw, Indiana(closed), Avilla Motor Speedway in Avilla, Indiana (closed), and I-96 Speedway in Lake Odessa, Michigan.

Brett got his first career win at a Sprints on Dirt show on July 7, 1989.  He raced regularly at I-96 Speedway , and in 1990, he earned the first of what would be three track championships at this track.  One of Brett’s biggest wins of his career would also come at I-96 Speedway, where Brett won a USAC race on June 1, 1991.  The other major win in his career came at Susquehanna Speedway July 3, 2002 during Pennsylvania Speedweek, driving for Jerry Parrish.  Brett also drove the famous Weikert Beef #29 for Bob Weikert.

Brett also ran some pavement tracks, and would be one of the more exciting drivers to watch in 1991 and 1992.  He won several races in the SOD series at tracks in Indiana and in Michigan, earning him the 1992 SOD Driver of the Year (voted on by his fellow drivers).

In 1993, Brett became the primary dirt track tire tester for Hoosier Racing Tire for their Sprint Car program.

In 2005, Brett was the track champion at Hartford Speedway Park in Hartford, Michigan.

In 2007, Brett was 2nd in points with the Sprints on Dirt, and was voted Driver of the Year by his fellow competitors.

Today, Brett primarily runs with the Sprints on Dirt series, and also runs shows at Hartford and I-96 Speedway.  His biggest fans are his wife, Kelli, and their children, Jacob, Jett, Cooper and Piper.
