HAILIE DEEGAN Returns Full-Time as MIA LOVELL & JADE AVEDISIAN Join 2026 Field

February 25, 2026

• HAILIE DEEGAN makes her triumphant return to ARCA West full-time competition, reuniting with Bill McAnally Racing for a serious championship run. The three-time series winner who broke barriers as the first female winner in 2018 is back where she belongs – and we’re here for this reunion tour that could add more hardware to her already impressive collection.
• MIA LOVELL steps up as a full-timer with Nitro Motorsports, bringing steady talent to a team that’s clearly investing in building competitive depth. While the spotlight often follows the big names, Lovell represents the kind of consistent competitor who can surprise people when the checkered flag waves – exactly the type of racer we love to watch prove doubters wrong.
• JADE AVEDISIAN arrives as a part-timer with serious momentum, fresh off winning a super late model feature and scoring a seventh-place finish in ASA STARS competition at New Smyrna. She’s riding a hot streak that suggests her limited ARCA West schedule might produce some memorable moments – sometimes the best performances come from drivers with nothing to lose.
