The CARS Tour Adds New zMAX West Series

The CARS Tour Pro Late Model Series makes a major addition to the 2024 season. Announced Friday morning, the addition of the new zMAX Cars Tour West Series will continue its focus on grassroots racing, but this time, focusing on the West Coast.

Owners of the CARS Tour: Dale Earnhardt Jr, Justin Marks, Kevin Harvick, and Jeff Burton will pair up with Kevin Harvick’s Kern Speedway owner, Tim Huddleston, to use his incredible knowledge of the West Coast late model scene.

“We’re excited for this partnership and to add the CARS Tour to the West Coast racing schedule for 2024,” said Huddleston. “To have Kevin, Dale Jr., Justin and Jeff bring the CARS Tour to the West Coast and support the grassroots racing is what we need to continue to build a healthy series and showcase the next generation of drivers.”

The move west will be a return by future NASCAR Hall of Famer Kevin Harvick to his roots, all while keeping in the motorsports world.

“The West Coast is home for me, and the tracks we’ll be going to this year with the zMAX CARS Tour Pro Late Model Series West are some of the ones that helped shape the path of my career,” Harvick said. “I was fortunate enough to have people help me along the way to make it to the top level of NASCAR, and that is what we want to do with the CARS Tour. We want to continue to build the series, bring attention to the drivers, the local tracks, and help usher the next generation of drivers to the top levels of racing. Adding this West Coast schedule for 2024 is the next step to making that happen.”
