“I’m really excited to join Nitro Motorsports and compete in the ARCA Menards Series,” explained Treyten Lapcevich. “It’s a great chance to showcase what I can do with a strong team behind me. Their results as a rookie team this season have been impressive, and I am grateful for the trust they’ve put in me. I’m ready to get to work at Berlin.”

Team Owner Nick Tucker emphasized the team’s enthusiasm about bringing Lapcevich onboard while acknowledging Moffitt’s contributions to the program.

“Treyten is a talented driver with a ton of potential, and we’re thrilled to have him join Nitro Motorsports,” added Tucker. “At the same time, Thad has been a great asset to our team, and we fully support his continued involvement in a part-time role. We’re looking forward to building on the success we’ve already had this season.”
