But just a few weeks from now, he will embark on his first full-time season as NASCAR Cup driver, taking the wheel of the No. 88 Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet. The rising star has won in just about everything he’s raced in, securing wins in ARCA, Mazda MX-5 Cup, the CARS Tour, Trans-Am, IMSA, and the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series. Going even further back, he is a former CIK-FIA Karting Academy Trophy Winner.
