November 1, 2026

• HAILIE DEEGAN wins the rain-shortened ARCA West finale at Kern Raceway after just 42 laps, her fifth career series victory, tying her with several notable NASCAR names.
• HAILIE DEEGAN and MIA LOVELL made history with the first all-female front row in ARCA West history, with LOVELL starting on pole and finishing second — a series first for a female 1-2 sweep.
• DEEGAN qualified just 0.007s off pole, quickly grabbed the lead, and controlled the race, feeling confident in her tire management before weather ended proceedings early.
• DEEGAN, who also won at Madera in 2026, is now focused on returning to the NASCAR Truck Series full-time for the 2027 season.
