CROSSVILLE, Tenn. — Cameron Weaver is joining forces with Mississippi-based Henderson Motorsports for the upcoming race season.
Weaver will be at the steering wheel of the team’s L&D Trucking No. 116 Longhorn Chassis super late model.
“This is a great opportunity, and I can’t thank the Henderson family enough. The team won a championship last year (COMP Cams Super Dirt Series) with Billy (Moyer Jr.) and now with him heading a different direction with his plans, it opened up the driver’s seat, and I’m so very appreciative of the Henderson family offering me this great opportunity,” Weaver said.
“We’re likely going to go after the Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series Rookie of the Year title this year. It’s definitely a new direction for me because I’ve never run a full season of Super Late Model racing, and I’ve never chased a point deal either.
“Again, I just can’t say enough how appreciative I am. I’m ready to get the season going.”
Henderson Motorsports’ home base will continue to be in Laurel, Miss. with veteran crew chief Robert Wayne Baker running the day-to-day operations.
“We had a great year with (Billy) Moyer Jr. in 2023. We won some races and won the COMP Cams (Super Dirt Series) title. Billy let us know at the end of last year that he wanted to focus on some new things for 2024, and we wish him nothing but the absolute best. He’s like family to us,” Leon Henderson shared. “We knew that we wanted to keep the race team going full speed ahead.
“Randy and Cameron Weaver have been great friends to us for several years now. Cameron has a ton of talent, and he was our first choice when the seat opened up. We couldn’t be happier to have him on board, and we look forward to kicking the season off in a month or so.”
The team is currently set to make their first start of the season on March 15-16 at Talladega (Ala.) Short Track in a doubleheader with the Hunt the Front Super Dirt Series.
