Racing career

NASCAR

Nationwide Series

Neuenberger made his Busch Series debut at Lowe's Motor Speedway in fall 2002. With his alma mater, the University of Maryland, College Park on the No. 77 Moy Racing Ford, he started in 41st and finished 26th.

Neuenberger was then able to run more races in 2003, as most of his NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule emptied out. Driving Moy Racing and Means Racing (No. 52), he improved on his debut with a 20th place in the season opener at Daytona. He was 21st at Talladega, 42nd at Dover Downs and 30th at Daytona in the July race for Moy. In two races for Means Racing, he finished 41st at Texas and 36th at Dover Downs.

Neuenberger planned to compete in a full season run in 2004. With sponsorship from BG Products, Neuenberger made and ran the first five races of 2004. However, it did not go too well. His best finish in that span was 33rd at Rockingham and that race was the only one he finished. After not qualifying for two races with the team, Neuenberger made his final race of the season at Talladega, where he matched his best finish of the year, 33rd and had his best start, 30th. In 2005, Neuenberger flipped at Dover International Speedway, but was uninjured. Surprisingly, he became more popular among fans.

After Talladega, Neuenberger was diagnosed with cancer, and did not race for the rest of the year.

However, Neuenberger was able to return to the track made in what many consider a feel-good story. MacDonald Motorsports No. 72 team invited him back to Daytona to drive the P4OT.com Chevy. Neuenberger jumped at the chance and enjoyed brief media limelight for his jump back to the track. After qualifying 37th, Neuenberger was running mid-pack before engine problems showed and finished 38th. Means Racing wanted Neuenberger back as well. He would drive both races at Dover Downs for the team. He finished 39th in both races. Notably, in the fall, Neuenberger was involved in a 13-car pileup on lap 2. His No. 52 Plan B Technologies Ford flipped twice before landing on all four wheels, allowing Neuenberger to drive away.

In 2008, Neuenberger finished 14th position at Talladega sponsored by Royal Farms Gas Stations, his highest finishing Nationwide spot ever following a top 25 in Dover last fall with planbtech.net on board.

In 2009, he ran three more races for Means Racing, earning a best finish of 28th.

For 2010, Neuenberger drove part-time in the No. 52 IHOP Chevrolet for Means in one race at Talladega.

Neuenberger has not raced in the series since 2013 at Dover.
