Matt Hagans (born June 30, 1956) is an American former professional stock car racing driver who has previously competed in the ARCA Re/Max Series.

Racing career
Between 1997 and 2001, Hagans competed in various series such as the ASA National Tour, both the NASCAR Southeast Series and Southwest Series, the Florida Pro Series, and the Sunoco Super Series, where he achieved a fifth-place points finish in his rookie year in 1997.

In 2002, Hagans made his debut in the ARCA Re/Max Series at Salem Speedway, driving the No. 16 Pontiac for Braun Racing, where he started third and finished in fifth place. He then made another start with the team at Michigan International Speedway, this time driving the No. 78 Dodge, where he started in thirteenth and finished in sixth. He also attempted to qualify for the race at Winchester Speedway, driving the No. 75 Pontiac for Bob Schacht Motorsports, but ultimately failed to qualify. After making three more starts the following year with Braun, getting a best finish of third at Kentucky Speedway, Hagans went on to form his own team, Hagans Racing, where he made four starts, and would get a best result of fourth in the teams debut at Michigan. Hagans then made four starts in 2004, getting a runner up finish at Michigan, where he started third and finished second behind race winner Reed Sorenson.

In 2005, Hagans signed Joey Miller to drive the No. 9 full-time, and Miller would finish runner-up in the standings behind Frank Kimmel and won the rookie of the year honors. Hagans finished fifth at Daytona International Speedway before attempting several races for Dave Allison in the No. 64 Dodge; he only qualified for the second Michigan race, where he finished 39th due to engine issues. Afterwards, Hagans went back to his own team in the No. 9 Dodge, making five starts and getting a best finish of third at Daytona. He then attempted two races the following year, finishing seventh at Kentucky Speedway and failing to qualify for the first Michigan race. The Kentucky event is his most recent event as a driver, as he has not raced in the series since then.
