Entry lists for 2023 World Series of Asphalt
Plenty of notable names make up the entry lists in each World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing division.
Nearly 50 teams will pursue a title in the Modified division, all of whom will be looking to dethrone defending champion Jimmy Blewett, who will drive one of two cars fielded by Tommy Baldwin Jr.
Matt Hirschman will be one of Blewett‘s biggest challengers as he looks to claim a fourth Modified championship. Two of the four championship contenders from the Whelen Modified Tour last year in Ron Silk and Eric Goodale are also entered alongside Patrick Emerling, Burt Myers, Joey Coulter and many others.
The Super Late Model division also has a strong field of cars, with NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series veteran Stewart Friesen set to compete with G. Stone Motorsports on Feb. 13-14. William Sawalich is looking to keep the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing championship with Donnie Wilson Motorsports following Sammy Smith‘s run last year, but he faces stiff competition from drivers like Conner Jones, Connor Mosack, Casey Roderick and Matt Craig.
Katie Hettinger, Toni Breidinger, NASCAR Drive for Diversity member Paige Rogers and Ross Chastain‘s brother Chad are among those entered across the other World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing divisions.
