Speaking about his new signing, Hemric said. “The belief that Matt Kaulig and Chris Rice have in me to come drive their notable, #11 car means the world to me. Equally, I believe in their program, their vision, and what they’re building at Kaulig Racing. It’s impressive to see how they’ve become an elite, multi-car Xfinity Series program in such a short period of time.
