What is fastest barrel racing times?

The fastest recorded time in barrel racing is 13.11 seconds, set by Jordon Briggs riding Famous Three D in 2019 at the RFD-TV’s The American rodeo in Arlington, Texas. The previous record-holder was Taylor Jacob, who rode Honor Thy Frenchman in 2013 and clocked in at 13.39 seconds. The fastest barrel racing times are achieved through a combination of horse breed, athleticism, rider skill, course conditions, and luck. Top riders typically use specialized gear such as fast-barrel race saddles, lightweight equipment, and specially designed bits to help their horses perform at their best. However, horse and rider safety should always be the primary concern, and horsemanship is more important than speed.
