Someone put on some Dwight Yoakam, Kevin Harvick is returning to the streets of Bakersfield. Well, to the race track. The Closer will race in the CARS Tour West event at Kern Raceway, which now bears his name.
Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway will host a CARS Tour West event on January 25th. The prodigal son will return to compete in the Super Late Model race. Harvick and the CARS Tour are hoping to grow the West Coast racing scene.
While he is retired from NASCAR, Harvick is still racing. He also has his son Keelan, who he is developing into a respectable racecar driver in his own right. In fact, father and son will race against each other multiple times in 2025.
Locals are going to love having Harvick at the track. He will try and show those West Coast racers why the track has his name on the sign.
Kevin Harvick is in the best part of his career. He is a co-owner of the CARS Tour, a FOX Sports broadcaster for the Cup Series, and he gets to race part-time in fun cars with his son. How does it get better than that?
