He also competes part-time in the ARCA Menards Series East, driving the No. 24 Chevrolet for SPS Racing.

Racing career
[edit]Kvapil has also competed in series such as the Carolina Pro Late Model Series and the ASA STARS National Tour.[3][4]
In 2022, Kvapil ran the full schedule in the CARS Pro Late Model Tour, driving the No. 35 Chevrolet for Travis Kvapil Racing. He won two races at the season opening race at Caraway Speedway and Ace Speedway, and finished within the top-ten in every race on his way to finish second in the final points standings, twelve points behind Luke Fenhaus.[5]
In 2023, Kvapil moved to Highlands Motorsports and the No. 96 Chevrolet for the 2023 season. He earned three wins at Caraway Speedway,[6] and Tri-County Motor Speedway at August and October,[7][8] and went on to win the Pro Late Model championship by 56 points ahead of Katie Hettinger.[9][10] Kvapil then moved back to Travis Kvapil Racing for the following year, where he won two races at Ace Speedway in May and August,[11][12] and finished third in the final points standings. It was also during this year that he made his debut in the Late Model Stock division, driving the No. 8 Chevrolet at Ace Speedway and Wake County Speedway, finishing third and seventeenth, respectively.
Kvapil won his first major Late Model feature at Florence Motor Speedway in November 2025 by winning the Charlie Powell Memorial 400 with the JR Motorsports No. 8 Chevrolet in a family 1-2 with his brother Carson finishing second.[13]
In May 2026, it was revealed that Kvapil will make his debut in the ARCA Menards Series at Toledo Speedway, driving the No. 24 Chevrolet for SPS Racing. As it is a combination race with the ARCA Menards Series East, it will also serve as his debut in that series as well.[14][15]
