In 2014, Reuse and his brother Roger made their NASCAR debut.[2] Reuse drove the No. 74 Chevrolet for Mike Harmon Racing. He started 31st and finished 29th due to engine problems in his first race. In his next and final race of the season, Reuse started 34th and finished 24th.

In 2015, Reuse returned to Mike Harmon Racing in the Xfinity Series for the Watkins Glen race. He started 39th and finished 32nd.

After a five-year absence from the Xfinity Series, Reuse made his return in August 2020 for the UNOH 188 at the Daytona International Speedway road course in the No. 13 for MBM Motorsports.[3]

NASCAR Truck Series

edit

In 2017, Reuse made his debut in the Truck Series, driving the No. 50 Chevrolet Silverado for Beaver Motorsports at Bowmanville. He started 27th and finished 17th.[4]

For 2018, Reuse has run the Iowa race in the No. 15 Chevrolet Silverado for Jordan Anderson Racing. He started 32nd and finished 25th due to suspension problems.[5][6]

For 2019, Reuse returned for Bowmanville's race driving the No. 56 Chevrolet Silverado for Jordan Anderson Racing using Hill Motorsports' owners points. He started 23rd and finished 22nd. His brother Roger drove the No. 04 Chevrolet Silverado for the same team in the same race.[7]

In 2020, Reuse joined Clay Greenfield Motorsports for the Sunoco 159 at the Daytona road course, but the team withdrew as the transfer of the truck's chassis from Jordan Anderson Racing to CGM was not properly submitted for NASCAR approval.[8]

During his post-race interview following the 2021 season opener at Daytona, Jordan Anderson announced Reuse would drive for JAR in the following week's event on Daytona's road course.[9]
