NASCAR Xfinity Series veteran Matt Mills will return to the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series for a limited schedule in 2022, piloting the No. 20 Chevrolet Silverado for Young’s Motorsports.
The 25-year-old will make his debut with the organization this season at Las Vegas Motor Speedway (March 4), before returning to the driver’s seat at Kansas (May 14), Gateway (June 4), and Richmond (August 13).
Mills’ last start in the NASCAR Truck Series came with David Gilliland Racing in 2018, when he qualified a career-best fourth-place at Michigan International Speedway.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve competed in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and I’m excited to return to the series with Young’s Motorsports,” said Mills.
“It was important to finally race at World Wide Technology Raceway which is close to JF Electric headquarters and this opportunity with Young’s Motorsports will allow us to do just that. We were also able to add a few other races that I’m really looking forward to.”
Mille will be pulling double-duty at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, where he’s scheduled to compete in one of 24 NASCAR Xfinity Series races this season, driving for BJ McLeod Motorsports.
“Las Vegas Motor Speedway is one of my favorite race tracks,” continued Mills. “The track always provides a fun atmosphere at a great facility and I seem to usually have good speed in whatever I go there in. I am looking forward to continuing that pace with the Young’s Motorsports team next month too.”
The Lynchburg, Virginia-native will look to improve upon a series-high 17th-place finish, that he earned with Faith Motorsports at Kansas and Dover in 2017.
“I am extremely proud that Matt has decided to return to the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series this season with Young’s Motorsports,” said team owner Tyler Young. “Four races means four opportunities for us to get the No. 20 J.F. Electric Chevrolet Silverado inside the top-10 and that is exactly what we plan to do.”
