Garrett Mitchell, also known as his internet persona Cleetus McFarland, will attempt to make his NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series debut with Niece Motorsports at Daytona International Speedway, the team announced Thursday.

McFarland would pilot the No. 4 Chevrolet in the Fresh from Florida 250 on February 13 in his inaugural NASCAR national series start, provided he is cleared by NASCAR following a scheduled test at Rockingham Speedway.

McFarland, 30, made four ARCA Menards Series starts last year in his first foray into professional stock-car racing. McFarland raced at both Daytona and Talladega Superspeedway in addition to Charlotte Motor Speedway and Bristol Motor Speedway, earning a career-best finish of ninth at Charlotte.

A native of Bradenton, Florida, Mitchell grew a close connection to the late NASCAR great Greg Biffle in recent years. Biffle served as an advisor for McFarland's ARCA debut at Daytona one year ago. In the wake of a tragic Dec. 18 plane crash that took the lives of Biffle and his family, Mitchell spoke at Biffle's gathering of remembrance and emphasized the motto to "Be Like Biff."

Among his teammates will be 2023 Daytona 500 champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. in the No. 45 J.F. Electric Chevrolet in his series debut, as well X-Games star, motorsports icon and 2024 PRI Show Grand Opening Breakfast speaker Travis Pastrana, who will drive Niece's No. 42 Brunt Workwear Chevrolet.
