Fans Vote Keelan Harvick CARS Tour PLM Most Popular Driver

“Being voted Most Popular Driver means a lot and is a huge honor for me,”

 

Keelan Harvick was named the CARS Tour Pro Late Model Most Popular Driver during the season-ending awards banquet at the Speedway Club at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

 

Voting for the MPDA, which was presented by CARS Tour broadcast partner FloRacing, ran from Oct. 17 – Nov. 5 and allowed fans to vote for their favorite driver daily. Any driver who competed in more than half of the season’s events was eligible.

 

“Being voted Most Popular Driver means a lot and is a huge honor for me,” Harvick said. “The fans are everything in racing, and this is their award to give, so it’s special that they took the time to vote for me. There are so many great CARS Tour drivers who have won this in the past, and I’m really humbled to win it this year.”

 

This marks Harvick’s first Most Popular Driver Award in any series and complements the 13-year-old’s strong CARS Tour PLM season that included four wins (Hickory Motor Speedway, Florence Motor Speedway, South Boston Speedway and North Wilkesboro Speedway), four top-five and five top-10 finishes, along with two poles in seven starts.

Keelan Harvick, who turned 13 this past summer, was at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway on Nov. 8, where he made his debut on the 0.58-mile track. He finished eighth in a 34-car field in the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour All American 100. Corey Deuser won the race.

 

"When COVID hit, I had nothing to do, so I asked my dad if I could go to the go-kart track and I've loved it ever since," Keelan said. "I got hooked on racing and my dad has supported me since then. I didn't know I'd be this far along in just a few years, but I'm really happy to be here."

 

Keelan was on the same track his father Kevin raced early in his career, which eventually included 60 NASCAR Cup wins, the 2007 Daytona 500 championship and three Brickyard 400 victories.

 

Keelan said the tracks he likes to run the most are those like Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway, for a couple of reasons.

 

"One, I just think it's neat to be on the same track he was on, and also because he knows the track and can tell me what to look out for," Keelan said.

 

What Kevin Harvick told his son about the unique Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway paved oval with an 18-degree banking was that it can be tricky.

 

"It's a very difficult track," Keelan said. "But I like that. I like being uncomfortable. It pushes you to the edge. And I like a track where you have to save tires, and you definitely have to save tires on this track. I'm pretty good at saving tires, sometimes."

If I Could Give Vicory Junction Anything . . .

If I Could Give Vicory Junction Anything

it would be lots of Love and a Rollercoaster

 

When Kyle Petty and his family founded Victory Junction to honor his son Adam’s legacy, they never imagined that, two decades later, more than 135,000 life-changing camp experiences would have impacted children and families from all 50 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and four countries—each camp experience a story of courage, healing, and hope.

 




Victory Junction is more than a camp. It’s a medically safe, fully accessible “home away from home” where children with medical and physical needs can do things they never thought possible like ziplining and riding horses. Where kids can sing around campfires and build friendships that last a lifetime.

 

And, with your support, Camp will remain a place where kids can be kids – where they laugh, play and grow in confidence. Where they experience adventure, find belonging, and grow in confidence.

 

Make a gift today and help fuel the power of possibility for Victory Junction campers. Your generosity ensures Camp remains completely free for children and their families while creating thousands of life-changing experiences filled with courage, joy, and belonging.
