He finished 25th after a crash but led that number of laps.[4] All five of his ARCA starts were for Gosselin.[5]

NASCAR Camping World Truck Series[]

Jackson made his Truck debut in 2009 driving for Gosselin. He made five starts in the No. 72 Chevrolet Silverado, and one start in the No. 92. He also failed to qualify for two races in the 92.
