10 races will debut the newly formed zMAX CARS Tour Pro Late Model Series West division
The CARS Tour is heading West for 2024. A new division of the series has been formed via the zMAX CARS Tour Pro Late Model Series West.
Last year, Tim Huddleston acquired Kern County Raceway Park then renamed it Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway. Now, the track in Harvick’s hometown of Bakersfield, CA will host the opening and closing round of the newly formed series.
10 events have been placed on the West Coast schedule. For all 10 events, the U.S. Legend Cars will ran as a support division.

“We’re excited for this partnership and to add the CARS Tour to the West Coast racing schedule for 2024,” said Tim Huddleston in a series release.
“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 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,” Kevin 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.”
