In 2002, Kapfhammer made his ARCA Re/Max Series debut at Kentucky Speedway, driving the No. 54 Chevrolet for his own team, K&M Motorsports, where he 27th and finished fourteen laps down in 29th place. He then made three more starts throughout the year, getting a best finish of sixteenth at Nashville Superspeedway.
