Colton "C.J." Greaves (born June 1, 1995) is a professional American off-road racing driver from Abrams, Wisconsin. He raced in the TORC: The Off Road Championship Super Buggy and Pro Light divisions, winning the 2010 Super Buggy championship. He now races in the Pro 2 trophy truck and Pro 4 division competing against his father Johnny Greaves. Greaves won the 2013 AMSOIL Cup world championship race in his Pro 2 truck. He won the 2014 Pro 2 championship and made his first Pro 4 start that season. The driver won the Pro4WD and Pro 2WD class championships in 2015 and 2016. Greaves is the son and teammate of Johnny Greaves.

Greaves grew up in a racing household. His father Johnny Greaves who started in buggies and rose up through the ranks, eventually racing in the premier 4-wheel-drive Pro 4 trophy trucks.

Greaves began racing in off-road short course buggies. He won the 2010 Super Buggy class championship. He continued racing Super Buggy and started Pro Light in 2011. Greaves finished second at Antigo's Saturday buggy race and won the Sunday race for first win of the season. He finished sixth in Pro Light points. Greaves finished the Super Buggy season with two wins at the Oshkosh to win his second consecutive Super Buggy championship.

Greaves continued racing Pro Light in 2012 and began racing a Pro 2 trophy truck full-time. He started from the pole position for the season's first Pro Light race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway dirt track and he finished on the podium in third. He raced in his second Pro 2 race that day hoping to get accustomed to the truck. Greaves ended up winning the race to become the youngest Pro 2 winner in history. He had a third place holeshot and held the position until the competition caution. He passed Jeff Kincaid after the restart and passed for the win after Bryce Menzies spun out. "I was very proud and excited to see CJ get that win," said Johnny Greaves after the win. "We were really not sure how he would feel in the truck since it was only his second time in the seat. He is really able to feel the tire hook-up and communicate what the truck is doing to Brad and me. CJ knows it's just the first race, but it's just very exciting." Greaves followed up the win with a third-place finish on next day's race at Charlotte.
