NASCAR

Goss created his own NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series team after buying old trucks from Mike Harmon Racing over the 2018–2019 offseason, and bought his own trucks because of the large expense of renting other teams' trucks. Goss was scheduled to make his series debut at Iowa Speedway in June 2019, but he withdrew from the event after arriving at the track without a fuel cell and some engine parts. He made his series debut in the 2019 CarShield 200 at World Wide Technology Raceway the next week. He also rented owner points to Darwin Peters Jr. at Eldora in 2019.


Personal life

Before quitting his job for his race team in 2019, Goss was a mechanical engineer working in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. He graduated from Green Bay Southwest High School, and attended University of Wisconsin-Green Bay.
