It was during this year that he would win the NASCAR Western Late Model championship at Altamont.[2][3] He would then run four more races in the West Series the following year, getting a best finish of thirteenth at Altamont.

He would go on to finish ninth in the final points standings with four top-ten finishes.[4] He would return to run the full schedule in 2012, this time for his own team in the No. 52 Ford, where he would finish tenth in the points standings. Philpott would then run the first two races of the following season for Dwayne Koski, finishing 27th at Phoenix due to a crash, and 24th at Stockton 99 Speedway after running twelve laps due to overheating issues.
From 2014 to 2020, Philpott would compete in various series such as the SRL Spears Southwest Tour Series, the Budweiser Crown Series, the and Pacific Challenge Series.[5]
In 2021, Philpott would return to the now ARCA Menards Series West at Sonoma Raceway, driving the No. 52 Chevrolet for his own team, Philpott Race Cars, where he would start twentieth and finish on the lead lap in ninth place.
