NASCAR's Hall of Fame has its Class of 2027. The voting panel, meeting Tuesday in Charlotte, elected Kevin Harvick — first ballot, 92 percent of the Modern Era vote — alongside Jeff Burton and five-time Weekly Racing Series champion Larry Phillips. Lesa France Kennedy was named the 2027 Landmark Award winner. The class will be inducted Friday, January 22, 2027, at the NASCAR Hall of Fame in uptown Charlotte.
Harvick goes in two years after retirement with 60 Cup wins and a 2014 title. Burton brings 21 Cup wins and two Coca-Cola 600s. Phillips, who died in 2004, was the only five-time champion of NASCAR's weekly short-track series.
