Justin Lofton, who calls Westmoreland, Calif., home and is the leader in the ARCA Series, was racing in the NASCAR Late Model division at Toyota Speedway at Irwindale on Saturday night.

Lofton, who used to race at Irwindale before graduating to the ARCA Series, partnered with Miles Copenhaver, a driver from Lancaster, to form a two-car team for the Late Model race.

There were only eight cars to start the NASCAR Super Stocks race. Ten cars started the Super Stocks season opener. Go to www.haddockinthepaddock.com for video interviews and comments from the drivers from Irwindale.
