NORTH WILKESBORO, N.C. — Kaden Honeycutt captured his second consecutive victory in the CARS Tour Pro Late Models on Thursday night, claiming the win at North Wilkesboro Speedway in the Reverend Sour Mash Whiskey 75. Honeycutt started from the pole position and held off a late challenge from Dawson Sutton.

The race kicked off a busy weekend of motorsports at the historic track, which will also host the NASCAR All-Star Race. “We had a really good car tonight,” Honeycutt said after the race. “I was taking my time there the last couple of laps with those lappers. I’m just happy for this team.”

Honeycutt, a 19-year-old from Willow Park, Texas, dominated the earlier laps but faced pressure from Sutton in the final moments as they navigated through lapped traffic. Eventually, he was able to stretch his lead again, securing his place as the checkered flag waved.

Keelan Harvick, the son of NASCAR legend Kevin Harvick, finished third, marking his best result in the CARS Tour Pro Late Models. “I just got to keep working, and I hope to keep improving,” Harvick said after finishing strong.

Completing the top five were Spencer Davis and NASCAR Cup Series driver Josh Berry. The full results of the race featured a total of 28 competitors, showcasing an impressive field.

The CARS Tour will return to North Wilkesboro on Friday for the Window World 100, where the Late Model Stock Cars will be in the spotlight. The event will be broadcast live on FloRacing and FS1, marking a significant moment for the CARS Tour as it debuts on national television.
