Mach III Motorsports

Mach III Motorsports Mach III Motorsports is a Nitro Funny Car team focused on leaving a positive, lasting impression on Kase has moderate success with Tom Anderson at the controls.

Mach III Motorsports was established in 2014 to begin a new chapter for the former Jam-Air Motorsports Team. After taking some time off and learning the severity of John's illness, it was decided that John would be retiring and selling his business off which would end Jam-Air. Therefore with a focus on the future, the leaders of the team set out on a path to create a period correct nostalgia funny

car that also had appeal to today's generation. The result... Mach III Motorsports, home of Speed Racer Funny Car. The Amazing Speed Racer was developed in the 1970's by the late chassis builder Mike Kase. Dale Armstrong took over the controls in 1981 where the team would finish 4th in the world and in Dale's last race in competition at the 1982 World Finals, he would reset the national ET Record at 5.89 seconds in competition

Today's Speed Racer, with permission from Armstrong, was created to give the kids a colorful character to root on at the track. The whole goal is to engage the children at the track and create a legacy for the Third Generation, which is currently Andrew John.

After running the car in September of 2017 in preparation for the California Hot Reunion, we made the decision to part ways with our former crew chief and start over with a new motor program. In a weird twist of events Rick Akers approached us about purchasing our operation. After talking about what we wanted to do with our future we decided to sell a good chunk of the parts to Rick.They did very well running 5.74 at the march meet in their first outing.

As for our future...will say that we are not leaving racing. We are not ready to announce our plans just yet however will say we will be back later this year with an announcement coming out very soon. We appreciate the continued support of our family based operation and look forward to what the future holds with a Clean Slate
