The CARS Tour is set to kick off its 2027 season with a dual-division event featuring both Late Model Stock and Pro Late Model racing at Freedom Factory in Bradenton, Florida.
The event is expected to feature the series regulars alongside special appearances from prominent drivers, including Cleetus McFarland, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Kevin Harvick.
Freedom Factory, formerly known as Desoto Speedway, has a history of hosting major racing events, including the ASA National Tour and All Pro Series. After a period of closure, the facility has been slowly introducing traditional racing events under the ownership of Cleetus McFarland.
This race marks the furthest south the CARS Tour will travel since its stop at Cordele Motor Speedway in South Georgia in 2024. Tickets for the opening night will go on sale starting October 19.
