🏁 Hagerstown Recap: Driving Through the Field!
After the high of Friday night's win, we headed to Hagerstown Speedway on Saturday for the Spring Fling with 34 cars in the pits.

The car owner drew the pill... and let’s just say drawing a 191 out of 200 wasn’t exactly what we were looking for! 😂 That buried Zach back in 8th (dead last) for Heat #4.

But Zach went straight to work, driving his way up to a 4th-place finish to lock us directly into the A-Main.

Starting 16th in the feature, the car was hooked up. Zach sliced through the field to bring it home with a rock-solid 7th-place finish! 📈

The car was incredibly fast all night. We know we just needed a small gear change and a little more stagger to have it fully dialed in, but we will absolutely take a Top 10 after starting the night that far back.

Huge thanks to the crew for another grueling weekend, and to all our fans and sponsors for riding along with us! Next weekend, we do it all over again. 🛠️💨

🏆 FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON! 🏆
After a frustrating rainout last weekend, we bounced back in a MAJOR way last night at Clinton County Speedway!

Friday Night: Clinton County Speedway (5/15)
The night started with a draw of 13 and clocking in 10th quickest in hot laps. Zach rolled off 2nd for his heat race, rocketed to the lead at the drop of the green, and dominated to take the HEAT WIN! 🏁

That put us in the redraw for the 25-lap feature, where Zach pulled a 3. At the start, he immediately jumped into 2nd and held it down through multiple cautions. Then, drama struck on lap 20—the leader was sent to the work area with a dragging brake caliper, handing the lead over to Zach.

After a fierce battle with the new 2nd-place car and surviving one final caution with just 2 laps to go, Zach hit his marks and drove it straight into VICTORY LANE! 🥇🎉

🚀 Next Stop: Hagerstown Speedway TONIGHT (5/16)
No time to celebrate just yet! We are loaded up and heading to Hagerstown Speedway tonight for the Spring Fling! We'll keep the momentum rolling and bring you another update after the checkers drop.

Thank you to our incredible crew, fans, and the amazing partners who make nights like last night possible! ⬇️

🏁 Week 3 Recap: The Ultimate Comeback!

Talk about a rollercoaster weekend. From mechanical heartbreak to a Hard Charger performance, the Garman Racing team never gave up!

Friday: Selinsgrove Speedway & Raceway Park
The night started strong with Zach Scott Rhodes timing quickest in hot laps! Unfortunately, something shifted in the rear during the heat, leading to a 9th-place finish. Starting 17th in the feature, Zach had worked his way up to 12th when a red flag came out. During the wait, the temps spiked to 270°. With the car not cooling down under green, we made the call to pull off early to save the engine.

Final Position: 15th

Saturday: Port Royal Speedway Trackside Media (The "Adventure")
Saturday was a true test of this team. A grinding noise in the rear kept us out of the makeup feature and the heat race. We discovered a failed birdcage bearing, but even after swapping spares, the noise persisted—the rear end was shot.

The crew went into "full thrash" mode, swapped the entire rear end, and got Zach Scott Rhodes out just in time for the B-Main. He drove from 10th to 5th to transfer! Starting 23rd in the A-Main, Zach drove his heart out to finish 8th, earning Hard Charger honors for the night! 🏆

Final Position: 8th

🛠️ Huge Crew Shoutout!
We wouldn't have made it to the track without the incredible effort from the guys who thrashed on the car:
Sean Garman, Scott Garman, Scott Rhodes, Gary Kerstetter, Will Duncan Jr., Kenny Smith, and Terry Aultz.

Special Thanks:
Jaylena Schmidt for feeding the crew and keeping Zach focused!
Norman & Jenn Rinehart for being our calm in the storm.
Katlin Aultz for helping your dad with the SxS and car help!
Will Duncan Sr. for the support and for just being you!

🗓️ Coming Up This Weekend:
Friday 4/24: Clinton County Speedway
Saturday 4/25: Path Valley Speedway

🏁 Week 2 Recap: Hard Charging & Late-Race Drama!

Week 2 is in the books, and it was a busy one with two season openers!

Saturday Night: Hagerstown Speedway (Season Opener)
With 39 cars in the pits, we drew a 2, putting Zach Rhodes Racing on the pole for Heat 1. The luck didn’t last long—a left rear flat after just one lap sent us to the work area. The crew got it changed, and Zach drove like a man possessed to finish 5th and transfer to the A-Main!

In the feature, Zach started 17th and picked off 4 cars on the opening lap. He battled his way into the Top 10 and was making a move for 8th when a yellow flew with just a few laps left. He restarted 10th and held steady to the checkers.

Final Position: 10th (from 17th!) 📈

Sunday: Clinton County Speedway (Season Opener)
After a short night of sleep, we headed to Clinton County. With 17 cars on hand, we drew a 16. Zach Rhodes Racing started 4th in his heat and finished 5th, making the redraw where he pulled an 8 for the feature.

The track conditions were tough—dry, choppy, and blinded by dust. Zach dropped to 11th on the start but clawed his way back to 6th. Then came the "deja vu" yellow flag with 1 to go! On the restart, the grip just wasn’t there, and we slipped one spot in the final turns.

Final Position: 7th 🏁

🗓️ Coming Up This Weekend:
Friday night 4/17: Selinsgrove Speedway

Saturday night 4/18: Port Royal Speedway (Opening Day make-up feature + a complete show!)

Thanks to all our fans and sponsors for the support! Let’s keep this momentum rolling. 🏎️💨

Went to Path Valley Speedway today for practice. First time out this year with the new motor. Zach Rhodes Racing looked good. We were close on setup right off the trailer and the motor was strong. Can't wait to get the season started in a couple weeks!
