In 2008, Bull made his debut in the ARCA Re/Max Series at New Jersey Motorsports Park, driving his self-owned No. 97 Ford, where he started 39th and finished multiple laps down in 32nd. He then made another start at New Jersey the following year, this time driving the No. 7, where he qualified in nineteenth but went on to finish 27th due to suspension issues. In 2010, he made a start at Palm Beach International Raceway, where he started and finished in 23rd, whilst also making another start at New Jersey, where he qualified in 23rd and finished in sixteenth. Between 2011 and 2012, Bull finished in the top-twenty in both New Jersey events, getting a best finish of sixteenth in the latter year. In 2013, Bull made a start at Road America, where he started in sixteenth but finished in eighteenth due to suffering transmission issues halfway through the race. He also made another start at New Jersey, where he started in sixteenth and finished two laps down in fourteenth place. [2]

After a seven year absence from the series, Bull made a return to the now ARCA Menards Series at Watkins Glen International, driving his self-owned No. 77 Ford. Unfortunately, he would not start the race and would be classified in 29th place. [1]

Bull ran the two road course races on the 2022 main ARCA schedule, Mid-Ohio and Watkins Glen, driving the No. 7 car for CCM Racing. [3] He finished sixteenth at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course and 21st at Watkins Glen International. [4] [5]
