Ash"s career began in racing karts. He raced a limited number of events in 1996 and 1997. In 2005, he raised eyebrows by qualifying eighteenth at Kansas Speedway, and ran well in the opening laps before he was spun by Dale Earnhardt Junior.
In 2006, Ash made two races, finishing 43rd in the Subway Fresh 500 at Phoenix International Raceway, and qualifying 43rd for the Dodge/Save Mart 350 at Infineon Raceway.
He led one lap at Phoenix.
In 2007, Ash attempted to qualify for the race at Infineon Raceway. His qualifying speed was 40th of 52 cars, but he did not qualify fast enough to make the race.
All teams outside of the top 35 in points qualify for eight starting positions, and Ash"s speed was too slow. In 2009, he attempted to make Sonoma with sponsorship from Efusjon Energy Club, and made the race, starting 43rd, ran 25th most of the day, and finished 41st after he was wrecked.
In 2010, Ash attempted to qualify for two races: Phoenix International Raceway and Infineon Raceway, failing to qualifying for both of them.
He was the slowest out of the go or go homers at Phoenix but barely missed the race at Infineon missing it by three one-hundredths of a second.
