The zMax CARS Tour will expand to the West Coast in 2024 in the form of the zMax CARS Tour Pro Late Model Series West.

The nine-race season will open on February 17 at Kevin Harvick's Kern Raceway in Bakersfield, California, and includes stops at Madera Speedway, Irwindale Speedway, The Bullring at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and All American Speedway in Roseville, California.

The new West Coast series is the latest change to the CARS Tour after former NASCAR drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Burton, Kevin Harvick and Justin Marks acquired the series in 2023.

"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 schedule for 2024 is the next step to making that happen."
