On the series he would have a very notably rivalry with Brandon Vinson throughout the year, both being in a tight points chase that would eventually come down to the final weekend of the series in Green Bay. However, Brandon would eventually win the series over him, with Jon finishing in second place being the highest ranked independent Monster Jam driver of the 2023 season. Jon Zimmer Jr. & his dad appeared on Inside Monster Jam later in the year. In Fremont, Michigan, he drove Block Head. In Miami, Oklahoma, he drove Dirt Crew & became the king of Miami. During freestyle at show 1, the truck shut off during a jump and nosedived, breaking off a wheel. Jon was not injured. He would make a World Finals appearance as a two-wheel skills competitor, finishing 2nd to Tyler Menninga. In Escanaba, Michigan, he drove Dirt Crew again. His chassis would later be used for the team's new truck, Tannerite, which is driven by Tanner Swinhart at an independent show in August. He would drive Just Get Er Done II in the Tampa arena shows as a fill-in for Brandan Tulachka. He later left Over Bored Motorsports at the end of 2023 to debut his own team, Send It Motorsports, alongside his father.
