Terry McCarthy

Registered as a competitor for Cintas Rookie of the Year honors, McCarthy finished 6th in his first race in the series at Miami-Dade Homestead Motorsports Complex, where he improved 23 positions from his starting position during the race.

In the following race at Phoenix International Raceway, McCarthy was involved in a four-truck accident on the seventh lap of the race; a lack of sponsorship meant that that became the final Truck Series race of the season for him, and would also prove to be the final Truck Series race of his career.

In 1996, McCarthy moved up to the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, making two starts at the start of the season driving the No. 27 Chevrolet for B&R Racing.

McCarthy would attempt one Truck Series race in 1997, at the Miami-Dade Homestead Motorsports Complex, but failed to qualify the No. 51 Chevrolet.
