MOORESVILLE, N.C. — Late model veteran Nick Leitz will join Young’s Motorsports for a limited NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule beginning with Saturday’s Heart of America 200 at Kansas Speedway.
Leitz will pilot the team’s No. 20 Chevrolet Silverado RST led by veteran crew chief Joe Lax for the 134-lap race.
The Chesapeake, Va. native returns to the Truck Series scene after a three-race stint in 2022 with Reaume Brothers Racing at Nashville (Tenn.) Motor Speedway, Richmond (Va.) Raceway and Homestead-Miami (Fla.) Speedway, respectively.
“I am excited to team up with Young’s Motorsports for Kansas Speedway this weekend,” said Leitz. “Young’s Motorsports is a great organization with a Cup Series-like appearance and full of a great group of individuals.
“I am excited for Kansas and the opportunity to drive the No. 20 Precision Measurements Inc. Chevrolet. I really like the mile-and-half tracks and I am stoked to see what we can accomplish together.
“I am super grateful for not only the opportunity at Kansas Speedway but for a few other races this season too.”
In addition to Kansas, Leitz is slated to drive the No. 20 Young’s Motorsports Chevrolet Silverado RST at Nashville Superspeedway in June and Homestead-Miami Speedway in October.
