CLAREMONT, N.C. — Landon Huffman is set to contest the full CARS Tour late model stock car campaign with Jimmy Mooring Racing in 2024.
The 27-year-old has been trending upwards on the CARS Tour scene as of late, finding victory lane in the $30,000 to-win Old North State Nationals in August and winning on six other occasions outside of the CARS Tour this year.
Huffman will be making the move from Nelson Motorsports and the No. 22 entry over to Jimmy Mooring Racing alongside teammate Jared Fryar, who wheels the No. 14 entry. Fryar will drive on a part-time basis along with the VA Triple Crown, while Huffman will chase the CARS Tour championship with the possibility of additional events.Â
Team owner Jimmy Mooring is no stranger to CARS Tour success, winning once this year with Fryar, along with capturing the 2020 CARS Tour late model stock car championship. Huffman’s JM Racing entry will be maintained and crewed out of the Huffman Racing shop in Claremont, N.C.Â
Five-time NASCAR Goody’s Dash Series champion Robert Huffman will serve as crew-chief.Â
“What an incredible opportunity I am walking into with Jimmy Mooring and Jimmy Mooring Racing. This partnership will allow both myself and my Huffman Racing team to be involved every weekend, and I can’t wait to put Jimmy and his partners in victory lane in 2024. While our long-term goal is the championship, our short-term goal is to show up each week as a strong contender to win. Time to go to work,” Landon Huffman said.
