Born in Nashville, Tennessee, USA.
He is the son of 2004 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Champion, the late Bobby Hamilton.

When he was 15 years old, he found a Ford Pinto in his driveway as a gift from his father. They fixed up the car, and Hamilton began racing it on weekends at the local speedway. In 1998, he moved to the ARCA series where he earned four top-5 finishes in five races.

Hamilton Jr has competed in a total of 64 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races, with a best finish of 36th place, 253 NASCAR Xfinity Series races with 5 Wins, 63 top ten finishes and 4 poles, and a 37 race NASCAR Camping World Truck Series career with 11 top ten finishes and 2 poles.

Hamilton replaced his father in 2006 as co-host of "The Driver's Zone" on WGFX 104.5 The Zone in Nashville with Liz Hackett, the remarried widow of Davey Allison.

Hamilton currently resides in White House, Tennessee, with his wife Stephanie and a daughter.
