Hocevar Set to Battle with Appalachian Sucker Punch ASA STARS National Tour on Wednesday, August 20
Ovid, MI – The stars are aligning for one of the biggest short track events of the year, and a home state hero is coming back to where it all began. NASCAR Cup Series driver Carson Hocevar is officially entered in the Michigan 300, part of the Appalachian Sucker Punch ASA STARS National Tour, on Wednesday, August 20 at Owosso Speedway.
A native of Portage, Michigan, Hocevar is one of the brightest young talents in American motorsports. Currently competing full-time in the NASCAR Cup Series behind the wheel of the No. 77 Chevrolet for Spire Motorsports, Hocevar has quickly built a reputation as a fierce competitor and fan favorite. He first turned heads at Berlin Raceway as well as CRA and ARCA before becoming a multi-time winner in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, ultimately graduating to NASCAR’s highest level.
Though now a Cup regular, Hocevar never strayed far from his short track roots and has continued to race Super Late Models in marquee events around the country. His return to Michigan for the Michigan 300 at Owosso Speedway will pit him against some of the top drivers in the nation — and some of the same competition he grew up racing against. Hocevar is a former Redbud 400 and Winchester 400 winner in addition to three Money in the Bank wins at Berlin.
The event continues the storied tradition of ASA Racing in Michigan. Past ASA National Tour winners at Owosso include Junior Hanley (1977), Randy Sweet (1978), and Mike Eddy (1979). Last year, the ASA STARS National Tour returned with Chandler Smith grabbing a hard-fought win.
Joining the Super Late Model headliners will be the Street Stocks, adding a local flavor to a night filled with talent, speed, and nostalgia.
