Spire Motorsports will field an ARCA Menards Series entry at Kansas Speedway for Corey Day, who will drive the No. 77 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet SS for the fourth time this season. The race will mark the team\u2019s fifth start in an Automobile Racing Club of America sanctioned event.
The Reese\u2019s 150 will be televised live on FS1 Friday, Sept. 26 beginning at 8 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). The penultimate event on the 2025 ARCA Menards Series calendar will broadcast live on the Motor Racing Network and ARCARacing.com.<\/p>\n
Corey Day \u2013 Driver, No. 77 Spire Motorsports Chevrolet SS<\/p>\n
Corey Day will be at the controls of Spire Motorsports\u2019 No. 77 HendrickCars.com Chevrolet SS in Friday\u2019s Reese\u2019s 150 at Kansas Speedway.
The 100-lap event will mark Day\u2019s seventh start in the key developmental series, where he\u2019s tallied one top-five and and four top-10 finishes.
Last September, Day competed in his third and final ARCA event of the season for Pinnacle Racing Group at Kansas Speedway. He qualified ninth and worked forward throughout the afternoon to secure a series-best fourth-place finish. Later that evening, Day qualified 18th for his second-career CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race and was racing for position just outside the top 10 before contact initiated by another competitor left him 32nd at the checkered flag aboard his Bill McAnally-owned Chevrolet Silverado.
In Day\u2019s most recent ARCA Menards Series start at Sonoma (Calif.) Raceway, the open-wheel standout qualified third and, despite displaying top-three speed all day, was eliminated from contention after contact with another competitor stymied his effort, leaving him seventh in the final rundown.
In 13 CRAFTSMAN Truck Series starts, the Clovis, Calif., native has registered one Kennametal Pole Award (Las Vegas), two top fives and three top 10s. Day earned a career-best runner-up finish at Indianapolis Raceway Park in July, just over one month removed from a then- career-best fifth-place showing at Nashville (Tenn.) Superspeedway in the Brian Pattie-led No. 7 Spire Motorsports entry.
The Hendrick Motorsports development driver has started seven races behind the wheel of the team\u2019s No. 17 Chevrolet in the NASCAR Xfinity Series and notched a career-best ninth-place result at World Wide Technology Raceway in Madison, Ill. earlier this month.

Last time Spire Motorsports fielded an entry in the ARCA Menards Series, the team visited Watkins Glen (N.Y.) International Victory Lane with 15-year-old Tristan McKee. Just days after meeting ARCA\u2019s minimum age requirement to compete, McKee became the 38th driver to win his series debut by inheriting the lead prior to a one-lap shootout to the finish and held off his competitors to seal the win.<\/p>\n
Corey Day Quote
You earned your series-best finish at Kansas last September. What are your thoughts heading into the weekend?
\u201cI\u2019m pretty excited to get back to Kansas. That is one of the tracks I have been at before, while it seems like I am seeing a lot of these places for the first time. I have a little bit of a baseline on where to run, given I ran this race last year. Excited to get out there Friday afternoon.\u201d<\/p>\n
