Mike Harmon Revives MHR for 2024: Today signifies a pivotal shift for NASCAR Xfinity Series car owner Mike Harmon, as he proudly reinstates his NASCAR Xfinity teams under the familiar banner of Mike Harmon Racing – MHR — for the upcoming 2024 season. The No. 74 Chevrolet Camaros will once again take to the track, emanating from the team’s headquarters in Denver, North Carolina.
Reflecting on this decision, Mike Harmon expressed, “I laid the foundation for this program years ago, pouring my heart and soul into it. While our 2023 season faced challenges, we received invaluable support from top-tier teams that guided us through those tough times, and I can’t express enough gratitude for their assistance.” Harmon added, “There’s no surrender in our ethos! We’re doubling down on our efforts, working even harder during this offseason to gear up for Daytona.”
As MHR gears up for the 2024 season, Mike Harmon and his crew remain on the lookout for marketing partners to propel their cars to higher speeds, matching the velocity of Xfinity 10G. Anticipate several organizational updates in the forthcoming weeks as the team readies itself for the track.
For Mike Harmon, a veteran of 291 NASCAR Xfinity races, ranking 27th on the all-time starts list, last year’s outcomes fell short of his expectations. “The previous season didn’t align with my vision; we were led to believe by a supposed ‘partner’ that they’d elevate our program with financial backing and aid in securing marketing partners. Unfortunately, those assurances didn’t materialize. Instead, we were left high and dry, facing attempts to tarnish our reputation. Although unfavorable weather conditions hampered our start, especially entering Daytona without any points, it made the initial half of the season challenging. It was unfair to our steadfast partners and our loyal fans that the promised support was absent until we demonstrated improvement. The ‘partner’ then redirected vital sponsorships to other teams, seemingly aiming to stifle our progress. However, this pattern was familiar to us.”
“Racing is an arduous endeavor, and the Xfinity Series boasts some of the most intense competition in years. You can’t race on promises that remain unfulfilled. At MHR, we’re wholly committed to delivering consistent and quality performances. Our marketing partners hold utmost significance, and we strive to ensure their brands gain recognition and offer added value to our loyal fan base. We deeply appreciate their unwavering support, and their significance is never overlooked.”
