Tom, the transition from sprint cars to ARCA or the truck series is daunting. Steve Kinser's leap into NASCAR with Kenny Bernstein was a total disaster. I've known Frank Kimmel for over 30 years. IMO, he is one of the best, if not the best, ARCA drivers ever. Frank was never able to crack the ceiling into the "big" show. As to why, I have no idea. Neither did "Chargin' Charlie" Glotzbach, the late Elmer Davis or countless other ARCA drivers that were GOOD race car drivers.
