The 2024 MMI Oil Workers 150 presented by the West Coast Stock Car Motorsports Hall of Fame was the 2nd stock car race of the 2024 ARCA Menards Series West season, and the 8th running of the event. The race was held on Saturday, April 20, 2024, at Kevin Harvick's Kern Raceway in Bakersfield, California, a 0.50 mile (0.80 km) permanent asphalt quad-oval shaped short track. The race took the scheduled 150 laps to complete. In a wild finish, Kole Raz, driving for Jerry Pitts Racing, would take the win after a hard-fought battle between Trevor Huddleston in the final few laps of the race. This was Raz's first career ARCA Menards Series West win.[5] Pole-sitter Tyler Reif dominated the majority of the race, leading a race-high 104 laps, before falling back to finish 3rd. Huddleston passed Reif for the lead with under 50 laps to go, and led 43 laps before finishing 2nd in a wild finish with Raz.
