The 30-year-old quickly moved into the top 10 but his car started having engine trouble around lap 15. The No. 30 team found a problem with the valve train but he continued with the issue, avoided several big crashes, and finished 10th."Brother, I thought we were done. Ilmor, the engine guys just came over here and pulled the valve cover off. No. 6 valve spring is broken in half. About five laps in, she just turned into a dog. And this #30 always hauls tail so I'm like, 'What the hell is going on?' Got my foot stabbed in there," Cleetus McFarland said in a post race interview with FOX."I'm telling you, they're getting on radio like 'Keep your momentum' and I'm like, 'Brother, this sucker is wide open.' You know what I'm saying? So we fell out of the draft and dude, it felt like I was riding a horse out there," he added.Before this weekend's race, McFarland had tested a drag racing truck at the 2.66-mile oval backstretch with Dale Earnhardt Jr. The JR Motorsports owner also gave McFarland some tips to prepare for the ARCA race.McFarland started racing in 2022 in the Stadium Super Trucks Series. He made six starts and finished in the top 10 five times, with his best result being third place at Bristol Motor Speedway.

He bought the old racetrack called DeSoto Speedway for $2.2 million in 2019 and now hosts online races, with a $20-a-month subscription.
