Going into the Shasta race weekend he is only 14 points away from leading in the West Series championship battle. 

Hingorani’s First Main Series Pole Award: During the current season, Hingorani earned his first General Tire Pole Award at the East Series race held at Flat Rock Speedway. Building on this success, he was able to secure another pole award at the West Series race at Irwindale Speedway. More recently, Hingorani reached another significant milestone by obtaining his first main series pole award at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. Working in collaboration with crew chief Monon Rahman, this achievement also marked Rahman’s inaugural General Tire Pole Award as a crew chief.

Regarding the Shasta Race: “The Shasta 150 is going to be fun. I’m looking forward to getting back in the car at a track we haven’t been to before, but I think we’ll do really well. I’m ready to strap in and bring a good race to the crowd.”

Crew Chief Kevin Reed Jr. 

Regarding the Shasta Race: “Shasta is going to be an unknown for everyone this weekend. The series hasn’t raced there since 2015, so it’s a very level playing field. With the test we have a lot of time to work on the car and make sure we have what we need come Saturday night.”
