In 2009, David Mayhew would contest a full season in the Camping World West Series in the 17 car, although he skipped the season finale. He earned three poles, six top fives, eight top tens, and scored two wins at Iowa Speedway, finishing 6th in the standings.
He returned for the 2010 season, earning three poles and winning one race at Iowa, finishing a career-best 2nd in points.
2011 saw him scale to a part-time schedule, running nine races and finishing 14th in points. He returned full-time in 2012, and despite winning one race in the season-opener at Phoenix, he was consistent and finished top ten in all races that year, getting 5th in standings.
He had a breakout season in 2014, earning four wins at Stockton 99 Speedway, Iowa, Evergreen, and Miller Motorsports Park, and ranking 5th in the standings.
He scored wins at Sonoma and Evergeen in the 2015 season and finished 6th in standings. He would scale to a partial for the next few years, earning a best finish of 3rd at Sonoma in 2017. He ran his last race for the team in 2019, finishing 5th at the same track.

#### Multiple drivers (2019-present)

The team would hire longtime veteran Tony Toste to drive the 17 car in the 2019 Star Nursery 100, finishing 16th in the race. Xfinity Series driver Zane Smith would take over the ride for the season finale at Phoenix, finishing 21st.

On June 7, 2021, it was announced that late model racer Amber Slagle would make her West Series debut for the team at Irwindale Speedway early in the year.

She ran two more races for the team that season, earning her best-career finish of 10th at the All American Speedway. 15-year old Conner Jones would drive the car at the season finale in Phoenix, finishing 19th after starting 18th.
The team increased their schedule to seven races in 2022, with Josh Berry driving at Phoenix, Slagle returning for Kern County and Irwindale, Connor Mosack at Portland, Landen Lewis at Sonoma, and Buddy Shepherd at The Bullring and Phoenix in November. Although they went winless, they earned a best finish of 2nd, with Mosack behind the wheel.
In 2023, Lewis was promoted to a full-time schedule with the team. After three consecutive races of finishing second, he broke through with a win at Portland International Raceway, holding off Xfinity Series regular Cole Custer in the final laps. Following the race at Evergreen, Lewis departed from the team to seek new opportunities. Truck Series driver Kaden Honeycutt would pilot the car for the rest of the season, earning two wins at Roseville and Madera. Honeycutt finished 9th at Phoenix and gave the team their first owner's championship.
