Jason Kitzmiller Rides Team Momentum into Michigan ARCA Return

For Michigan, the team welcomes the continued support of Carter Machinery, promoting the Caterpillar (Cat®) brand as the primary partner aboard his No. 97 Chevrolet SS.

Carter Machinery’s humble start began in 1928, serving Virginia and southeastern West Virginia.

As our customers’ needs changed over the years, we evolved by continually adding new products, services, and locations, with exponential growth occurring after our 2020 acquisition of Alban Tractor Company.

Today, our footprint spans the Mid-Atlantic, with over 30 locations throughout Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and the District of Columbia.

We sell, rent, and support the full line of Cat® equipment, engines, and electric power generation systems, backed by the best parts availability, most diverse rental fleet, and an expert service team working together to enable our customers’ highest level of success.

Our ongoing investment in people, infrastructure, technology, and tooling continues to position us as one of Caterpillar’s leading dealers in North America and throughout the world.

“Having Carter Machinery and the Cat® brand on board for six straight races has meant a lot to our team,” sounded Kitzmiller. “Their support gives us the resources and confidence to keep pushing forward every week. It’s been a true partnership, and we’re proud to represent such a respected name both on and off the track.”

In addition to Carter Machinery, A.L.L. Construction Inc., Grant County Mulch, A&J Excavating, Cobra Mining, Champion Power Equipment and Volt Battery Technology will all serve as associate marketing partners for the 44th ARCA race held at Michigan International Speedway.

Entering Michigan, Kitzmiller, 51, sits fifth in the ARCA Menards Series championship standings, 37 points behind fourth-place Andy Jankowiak and 45 points behind leader Lavar Scott, with 15 races remaining.

The A.L.L. Construction Racing team also holds a solid seventh place in the championship owner standings.

Since 2020, Kitzmiller has made 31 ARCA Menards Series starts, earning two top-five and 11 top-10 finishes, including a career-best third-place finish at Daytona International Speedway in February 2025.
