Clark made the inaugural CTS race in 1995, qualifying the No. 23 Team ASE Racing Ford in the 29th position, finishing 32nd by a crash. Clark ended up only making 13 races of the 20-race schedule. It was not even until the ninth race of the year at Bristol that Clark could manage to finish a race (21st). Overall, his best finish was 12th at Martinsville, and finished 21st in points.

Before 1996, Clark lost ASE to Ultra Motorsports and only made sixteen of the twenty-four races. He matched his career-best of twelfth twice: at Phoenix and Mesa Marin. He also had five other top-twenty finishes. and finished 22nd in the points. Clark made two starts in 1997 as his truck series career came to a close due to funding, finishing of 26th at Phoenix and 28th at Evergreen Speedway. Clark moved to the Winston West Series in 1998, competing in five races with a best finish of 11th. He attempted the 1999 season opener, but failed to qualify. He has not raced since.
