In eight starts this season aboard the No. 88 Chevrolet, Kvapil has a best finish of second at Dover (Del.) Motor Speedway. The 21-year-old has bagged four top-10 finishes. 

Sam Mayer, who’s piloted the No. 1 Chevrolet for the last three seasons, was named a driver of Haas Factory Team for the 2025 season in August alongside Sheldon Creed. 

Kvapil’s father, Travis Kvapil, won the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series championship in 2003 and competed in the Cup Series for 11 seasons.
