Even with the crash he finished 45 laps off the pace. When he started this race, he became the third fourth-generation driver to compete in the ARCA Racing Series, with Adam Petty being the first and Adam's cousin/Richard Petty's other grandson, Thad Moffitt, being the second.

[2] Earnhardt was scheduled to make his Xfinity Series debut driving the No. 40 Dodge Challenger for MBM Motorsports at Iowa. However, sponsorship issues forced him to make his debut at August Iowa race, where he drove the No. 13 for MBM. He failed to qualify for the race.[3]
