Racing career

Garrett began racing at age 14, running in a Pure Stock car at South Boston Speedway. He was Rookie of the Year at the track in 2016 and in 2017 won the Whelen All-American Series Limited Late Model championship at SoBo, and also ran super late models at tracks like New Smyrna Speedway.[1]

K&N Pro Series East
Garrett's 2018 K&N East car

Garrett ran 12 of the 14 races in 2018, driving the No. 18 Toyota for Hunt-Sellers Racing.[2] His highest finish was 3rd in the season’s fourth race at South Boston Speedway. The team ran a Days of Thunder throwback scheme for the King Cadillac GMC Throwback 100 at Thompson Speedway Motorsports Park, imitating Russ Wheeler's paint scheme.[3] Garrett's 2018 season was originally supposed to be a part-time effort with sporadic races throughout the year, but eventually expanded to include all of the races from Langley on forward.[4]

In 2019, Garrett returned to Sam Hunt Racing and the No. 18, but switched from Toyota to Chevrolet.[5][6]

Xfinity Series

In April 2019, Garrett made his debut in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.[7][8] He drove the No. 66 Toyota for MBM Motorsports at Richmond Raceway. He started 24th and finished 26th, three laps down.[9]

Truck Series

Garrett ran his first NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series race in the 2019 World of Westgate 200 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, driving the No. 38 Chevrolet for Niece Motorsports.[10]

He returned to Niece and the Truck Series in October 2020 at Kansas Speedway.[11]
