CARS Tour has teased a star-studded entry list for its return trip to North Wilkesboro, and even expanded the field to 38 cars, with Cup Series contender Chase Briscoe entering the race with Chad Bryant Racing as a result.

The race will be the first for Briscoe, who came up driving non-wing dirt Sprint Cars, in a pavement Late Model. It’s also a reunion for the driver as Briscoe captured the 2016 ARCA Racing Series championship at Cunningham Motorsports with Bryant serving as crew chief.

Bryant purchased the assets of Cunningham Motorsports in 2018 and has since turned the program’s attention to Late Model Stock Cars with a focus on the CARS Tour competition. Briscoe will enter the event with sponsor Rush Truck Centers in collaboration with Stewart Haas Racing.

Briscoe joins Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kevin Harvick and the top-26 in CARS Tour championship points to compete in the event, leaving 10 more positions to be decided and announced.

The CARS Tour Late Model Stock Car Window World 125 and the CARS Tour Pro Late Model Crossroads Harley-Davidson 75 will take place on Wednesday, May 17. The night before will feature the ASA STARS National Super Late Model Series.

This is all part of NASCAR All Star Week culminating with the Craftsman Truck Series and Cup Series. Both the CARS Tour and ASA STARS race at North Wilkesboro will air live on FloRacing.
