On October 10, 2022, it was announced that Reif would make his ARCA Menards Series West debut with Lowden Motorsports at Las Vegas Motor Speedway Bullring. He would start 17th and finish 18th. He made his second start of the year in the season finale at Phoenix Raceway. After starting 24th, he would finish in 12th. [4]

On December 12, 2022, it was announced that Reif would be promoted to a full-time schedule with the newly renamed Lowden Jackson Motorsports in the 2023 season. [5]

In the first race of the West Series season, which was the series' combination race with the main ARCA Menards Series at Phoenix Raceway, Reif scored his first career win after passing Landen Lewis for the lead on the final lap. [6]

On February 24, 2023, it was announced that Reif would also be running full-time in the ARCA Menards Series East for the 2023 season, competing for the championships in both series with Lowden Jackson Motorsports. [7] However, after the East Series season-opener at Five Flags Speedway, Reif was not entered in the second race of the season at Dover Motor Speedway, and therefore his full season plans fell through.
