Leitz made his Truck Series debut in the
2022 race at Nashville
, driving the No. 43 truck for
Reaume Brothers Racing
.
[1]
He would run two more races later in the year in the team's No. 33 truck (Richmond and Homestead-Miami).
On May 1, 2023, it was announced that Leitz would run three races (Kansas in May, Nashville and Homestead-Miami) for
Young's Motorsports
in their No. 20 truck.
[2]
After it was announced that
Greg Van Alst
would drive the No. 20 truck for the rest of the 2023 season starting at IRP,
[3]
it was assumed that Leitz would drive the team's No. 02 truck instead at Homestead-Miami, which also had a rotation of drivers and no driver had been announced for that truck for that race. However,
Brad Perez
would end up driving the No. 02 truck at Homestead-Miami and Leitz would stay in the No. 20 with Van Alst not running that race. Leitz also made his Xfinity Series debut that year in
the race at Kansas
, driving the No. 38 car for
RSS Racing
in place of
Joe Graf Jr.
who was driving the
Joe Gibbs Racing
No. 19 car in that race instead.
