Daniel Hemric is an established professional stock car racing driver rated at 5,317, placing him in the professional tier: a driver who races full-time at the top level of his series and competes successfully against fields of comparable quality. His nine-season career spans NASCAR's three national series, with 282 starts across the Xfinity, Cup and Truck series since 2018. He has recorded 2 wins and 37 podiums, the bulk of his success coming in the Xfinity Series with 1 win and 31 podiums from 156 starts.[1]
Hemric's competitive record reveals a driver who consistently runs mid-pack against professional opposition but holds his own in a sustained head-to-head context. Against Brandon Jones, a stronger-rated professional, Hemric finished ahead 95 times across 168 shared races, a genuinely positive record. Against Ryan Sieg, a driver of marginally lower calibre, he leads 106 to 51 across 157 encounters. However, his record against the very strongest drivers in his fields tells the fuller story: he has finished ahead of all-time elite professionals including Kyle Larson, a multiple Cup champion and Gold-graded driver, on 25 occasions, and former or current champions like Ryan Blaney, Chase Briscoe and Denny Hamlin, though in each case by a minority of their shared races. These results reflect Hemric's standing as a consistent if not dominant force in the mid-tier of stock car racing. His Cup Series tenure produced no wins and no podiums across 87 starts, suggesting the highest level has proven beyond his reach. He remains active in the Xfinity Series and competes full-time in the Truck Series for McAnally-Hilgemann Racing, having recorded a top-five result at Watkins Glen in 2026.[2]
