The Solid Rock Carriers CARS Tour is set to take a more proactive approach when it comes to driver development. Beginning next season, any driver can compete in the Pro Late Model Tour starting at the age of 12 as opposed to earning eligibility at 14 years old. This change does not impact the Late Model Stock Tour, where drivers must still be 14 before they can race in that division. “We’re all concerned about car counts, and we have kids who have raced since they were five years old coming into full-bodied stock cars at 12 years old. “I don’t care how old you are, if you come into our series, you will be looked at very closely,” McNelly said.
