Racing career

In 2001, Turner made his debut in the ARCA Re/Max Series at Winchester Speedway, driving the No. 6 Chevrolet for Wayne Peterson Racing, where he finished in fifteenth after starting in 25th. He then made four more starts for Peterson that year, getting a best finish of twelfth at Salem Speedway. He ran eight more races for Peterson the following year, where he had a best finish of 30th in his first race of the year at Atlanta Motor Speedway. In 2003, Turner ran three more races for Peterson, getting a best finish of 24th at Atlanta before driving for Norm Benning Racing at the DuQuoin State Fairgrounds dirt track, where he finished in 36th due to engine issues, and for DMW Motorsports at Lowe's Motor Speedway, where he failed to qualify.

In 2004, Turner joined K&K Racing in the No. 79 for a majority of the races held that year, including one start for Benning at Lake Erie Speedway, and another for DGM Racing at Charlotte. Across the year, he failed to qualify for eight races, got a best finish of sixteenth in his first start at Salem, and finished eighteenth in the final points standings. He then solely drove for K&K Racing for the following year in 2005, this time running the full schedule, where he finished nineteenth in the points with a best finish of seventeenth at Pocono Raceway. However, he failed to qualify for ten races, including the first five races of the season. In 2006, Turner only attempted one race at Pocono, this time driving the No. 87 Chevrolet, where he ultimately failed to qualify. He then ran the No. 21 Pontiac at Pocono, where he finished 36th due to overheating issues, and then ran the No. 7 Chevrolet for Bobby Gerhart Racing at the Illinois State Fairgrounds dirt track, where he once again finished 36th, this time due to handling issues.

After not racing in the series from 2008 to 2011, during which time he served as a spotter for K&K Racing, [1] Turner returned at Chicagoland Speedway in 2012, this time driving the No. 3 Chevrolet for K&K, where he started and finished 30th after running only five laps due to handling issues. He has not competed in the series since then. [2]
