Perspective
The full schedule was announced on December 6, 2023.[41] Some race dates were announced before then as part of the announcement of the main ARCA Series schedule on November 28.[42]
Notes:
- The race at Phoenix in March is a combination race with the ARCA Menards Series (highlighted in gold).
- Race names and title sponsors are subject to change. Not all title sponsors/names of races have been announced for 2024. For the races where a 2024 name and title sponsor has yet to be announced, the title sponsors/names of those races in 2023 are listed.
Schedule changes
- The race at Evergreen Speedway was removed from the schedule and replaced by a race at Tri-City Raceway. Both tracks are located in the state of Washington. Tri-City Raceway was last on the West Series schedule in 2003.[43]
- The race at Madera Speedway moves from October to September.
- The race at All-American Speedway moves from September to October.
- The race at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Bullring was removed from the schedule and replaced by a second race at the newly-renamed Kevin Harvick's Kern Raceway. (The track was previously Kern County Raceway Park and was renamed in November 2023 when Kevin Harvick joined the track's staff as a consultant after his retirement from driving full-time in NASCAR and after the track was purchased by new owners.)[44]
- The race at Madera Speedway moves from September 21 to 28[45]
- The first race at Irwindale was originally supposed to be held on March 30, but was postponed to July 6 due to impending bad weather.[46] And the doubleheader races at Irwindale ended being the last two ARCA West Series races on the venue, since Irwindale Speedway closed the doors at the end of 2024.[47][48]
