Comment – actually he does satisfy WP:NMOTORSPORT criteria 1: Has driven at least 1 race in a fully professional series. Hocevar has raced in ARCA Menards Series which according to the article is a professional series. SSSB (talk) 14:35, 9 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

According to the article it is, but the longstanding viewpoint of WikiProject NASCAR is that ARCA is not fully professional for a series that satisfies #1. If you would like to reevaluate that viewpoint, I would be open to starting a discussion at the WikiProject. Willsome429 (say hey or see my edits!) 15:17, 9 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If its a long standing viewpoint I'll support delete below. SSSB (talk) 09:26, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the response to my comment (above), if this series isn't considered proffesional by the relevent WikiProject then he fails the notabillity criteria. SSSB (talk) 09:26, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
