HAMPTON, Va (WAVY) — In his first shot at the Hampton Heat, 19-year-old Caden Kvapil took America’s hottest race Saturday night, beating out the likes of Brenden ‘Butterbean’ Queen and Connor Hall.

Interestingly enough, Caden comes from a long line of racing lineage, as earlier in the day, his older brother Carson won in the O’Reilly Series for the first time. That must have been some juice watching his big brother win, because then he took the Langley Speedway track and dominated.

Both Caden and Carson are the sons of 2003 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Champion, Travis Kvapil, who took to social media after the youngest of the brothers brought home the Hampton Heat.
