40 Dodge for Carter 2 Motorsports, where he started in seventeenth and finished eighteen laps down in sixteenth place.
With or without McKenzie's permission, Carter subleased the car to Alex Malycke for the ARCA Menards Series East race at Flat Rock Speedway in Michigan.
Malycke arrived at the track but Carter no-showed the race which prompted an investigation from the Loudoun County (VA) Sheriff's Office.
[3] Carter would later be arrested on July 29,[4] and the car, as well as the engine and transmission, would not be found until September of that year, with the car ditched in a cornfield in Illinois, and the engine and transmission being found in a storage locker, and were returned to the McKenzie's shortly afterwards.
It was also revealed during this time that McKenzie plans to enter the ARCA Menards Series East race at Rockingham Speedway in 2025 with the car.
