CARS Tour Champion Caden Kvapil joins Kevin Harvick and Will Buxton to reflect on his 2026 season, navigating the pressure of carrying on the JR Motorsports legacy, and following in the footsteps of his brother, Carson. Caden opens up about what it’s really like having his father, Travis Kvapil, as his crew chief, the mentorship dynamic with Dale Earnhardt Jr., and whether growing up in a iconic racing family made competition come naturally.
 Plus, he breaks down his most meaningful win of the year, how competitive the Late Model Stock division really is, and the one bucket-list race he dreams of running in the future.
