Not the update we wanted to share, but we are unfortunately done for the 2026 season.

After a very rough year battling non-stop motor issues and changing cars, we’ve decided to put it away and start rebuilding early. We are putting all our energy into making sure the 2027 season is a whole lot better!

We want to send a massive THANK YOU to all of our incredible supporters and sponsors. We appreciate every single one of you and truly couldn’t do this without your help.

Just because the racing season is over doesn't mean the work stops. We have a mountain of work ahead of us in the shop, starting with rebuilding this motor yet again…

We'll be back stronger.

We had a tough but successful first night out in the car! In the heat race, ignition issues caused the car to cut out, so we pulled off early to prevent damage. We changed the distributor for the feature, which completely solved the problem. Starting 18th, the car felt good for the setup we had, and we even clocked a personal best lap time on a fast but rough track! Unfortunately, with seven laps to go, the engine started getting hot, the fuel pressure dropped, and the headers were glowing cherry red. We chose to pull into the pits to save the motor. We will make our adjustments this week and see everyone at Fiesta Speedway this Friday for Meet the Drivers Night!

Feature: 11th ➡️ DNF

Sorry for late update, life got busy!

Had high hopes for the feature after the car felt great in our heat race! We had a solid run going and ran the top 8 for a few laps. Unfortunately, we spun out and took some contact to the right front. After that, the car didn't handle right. After a second spin out, we decided to play it safe, call it a night.

Back in the pits, we realized the engine was extremely hot. Upon tearing it down, we found a cracked harmonic balancer that sheared the key off the crankshaft, which wiped out our water pump and power steering.

After assessing the damage, we realized this tough season has bent our rear clip and the right front horn. Instead of a quick patch job, we're taking the next few weeks off to build and prepare the new car so we can finish out the year strong. We won’t be racing this coming weekend, but we'll be back in action soon!🏁💚

See y’all tonight🏁💚 Green flag drops at 7pm!

Friday night at Fiesta was a tough one for Rian. His car refused to start for the heat race due to a lack of spark, resulting in a DNS. He successfully rewired the ignition just in time for the feature, where he lined up 9th. Unfortunately, the car began cutting out on the very first lap, forcing him to pull off. The culprit turned out to be a wet, rusty distributor.

Saturday night at Madison started strong but ended in frustration. After installing a new distributor, the car felt great during a successful heat race. However, bad luck struck in the feature when the car threw its belts—losing both power steering and the water pump. To top it off, a right rear flat tire officially ended the night.

We will get everything fixed up and try again this Friday night at Fiesta City Speedway!

Huge thank you to the sponsors who make this all possible!

We are honestly very happy with how our night went! During the heat race, the car kept cutting out, so Rian had to pull off. Turns out, the kill switch was the problem. Between races, Rian was able to rewire and put in a new kill switch.

When the feature came around, our main goal was just to finish the race, and that’s exactly what Rian did! We are far from winning, but being able to finish our first feature felt good, and it’s a win in our books, especially after the rough season we’ve been having.

We do have some bodywork to do after Rian took a decent hit to the left rear. It was just one of those situations where the guy behind him had nowhere else to go, but we'll get it fixed up and ready for the next one!

As always a huge thank you to our amazing sponsors and supporters for making this happen!

We are racing tonight! We spent a long night in the shop tearing down and putting the motor back together, but she’s ready to roll.

Huge THANK YOU to everyone who offered advice, lent a hand, and helped us track down parts. We wouldn’t be here without you!

Now, time to see the hard work pay off, let’s get a great night of racing in!
