Racing career

edit

In 2024, it was revealed that Huffman would make his debut in the ARCA Menards Series West, driving the No. 0 Chevrolet for Fierce Creature Racing, whom he has served as a crew chief for regular driver Bobby Hillis Jr. the previous year.[1][2][3] After setting the 23rd and slowest time in the lone practice session,[4] he did not make a qualifying attempt and finished in 21st position after pulling into the pits on the opening lap so that he could resume his crew chief duties for Hillis Jr.; he was listed in the final results as a "did-not-start".[5][6][7][8][9] He was then entered in the next race at Portland International Raceway, once again driving the No. 0 for FCR.,[10][11] where he was officially classified in 24th place after failing to set a time in practice or qualifying.[12][13][14][15]
