After holding off a late race charge from his teammate, it was Sean Hingorani who was able to hold on and take the checkered flag at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in the NAPA Auto Parts 150 presented by the West Coast Stock Car Motorsports Hall of Fame.
Hingorani was the car to beat. Leading all of the first half of the 150 lapper, but started to feel some pressure from his Brent Crews in the 20, but managed to hold on and take the trophy.
“Venturini Motorsports brought me such a great race car today and I can’t thank them enough for that. Had to hold off there at the end, but we were able to lead wire to wire and dominate here today,” the points leader said post-race.
“I had a fun time. Thanks for all the fans once again,” he added.
While he put up a valiant effort, Crews came home in a solid second.
“This thing was a hot rod. We honestly struggled all day but Cayden and the guys just worked their tails off to be able to get us where we are,” Crews said post-race.
“Definitely using everything I had to get there,” he added on his chance to get by his teammate.
Trevor Huddleston, Tyler Reif, and Jack Wood rounded out the rest of the top five.
Unofficially, Hingorani now has a 14-point lead heading into the finale at Phoenix Raceway.
It was a tough break for Isabella Robusto after contact on lap 87 with Eric Nascimento Jr. sent her for a spin and into the outside wall. Ending her night early and continuing her streak of tough finishes.
The driver’s championship now moves to the finale at Phoenix Raceway on November 8th at 2:30 PM ET live on FloRacing with radio on MRN for the 2024 ARCA Menards Series West finale.
