He was scheduled to run the full NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series in 2023 for Reaume Brothers Racing in the No. 33 Ford F-150,[4] but left the team 7 races into the season. On April 1, 2023, at Texas Motor Speedway in the SpeedyCash.com 250, Massey had his best career Truck Series finish of 11th place.
