Carson Hocevar will make his NASCAR Xfinity Series debut in 2023, Spire Motorsports announced Tuesday (Mar. 7).
Hocevar will drive the No. 77 Chevrolet with sponsorship from Premier Security Solutions.
“I am eager to make my Xfinity Series debut for Spire Motorsports with support from JR Motorsports,” Hocevar said in a team release. “I am very grateful for their partnership and for Premier Security’s belief in me. Together, they are providing me with a fantastic opportunity to grow as a driver and I intend to make the most of it.”
Hocevar will attempt to make his series debut at Dover Motor Speedway on April 29. He must qualify for the race on speed because the team does not have any owner’s points.
In addition to Dover, the Portage, Mich. native will also compete in five other events, at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Nashville Superspeedway, Michigan International Speedway, Darlington Raceway and Bristol Motor Speedway.
“Carson Hocevar is a rising talent who earned the opportunity to compete in the NASCAR Xfinity Series,” Spire Motorsports co-owner Jeff Dickerson said. “Spire Motorsports prides itself on identifying talented race drivers who are still in the early stages of their career and pairing them with veterans who can help get the most out of that talent. Carson fits the bill perfectly. We’re eager to provide him with the opportunity to showcase his talent and work with Bono [Kevin Manion], Mike Greci and the group from JR Motorsports.”
Hocevar competes full time in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series with Niece Motorsports. In 56 career races, he has 10 top fives – including four runner-up performances – 21 top 10s and back-to-back 10th-place points finishes.
