🏁 WEEKEND RECAP | FLORENCE & DILLON 🏁

What a weekend for Jacob Hassey Racing! From a hard-fought podium finish at Florence Motor Speedway to a victory at Dillon Motor Speedway, it was a weekend filled with racing, learning, and plenty to be proud of!

First and foremost, we want to officially welcome Carlson Tree and Land Services to the JHR family! We’re incredibly excited to have you on board as a partner. And what better way to start our partnership than by putting the car in Victory Lane! Thank you Ryan!! 🏆

🏁 SATURDAY | FLORENCE MOTOR SPEEDWAY

Saturday was a little different for our team. With the rest of the crew back at the shop preparing for the big Labor Day race at Dillon, it was just Mom, Dad, and Jacob making the trip to Florence. Needless to say, we were a little nervous about handling everything ourselves for the first time!

Jacob practiced well and qualified P2, but then the rain came.

Thankfully, we were able to get the race in, and Jacob put together a hard-fought run. He battled the car running in third for much of the race, which unfortunately allowed the eventual winner to get away. Jacob never gave up, fought all the way to the checkered flag, and brought it home with a strong 2nd-place finish! 🥈

🏆 SUNDAY | DILLON MOTOR SPEEDWAY

Sunday brought us to Dillon Motor Speedway for the Labor Day race. With the track moving the event to Sunday, the Bandolero field was unfortunately very small, with only three cars entered.

The third car ultimately decided not to race, leaving Jacob and Caroline Thomas to take on the race.

But Sunday wasn't really about the result.

It was about helping another young driver get valuable seat time and experience.

It was Caroline’s first time in the car, and Jacob spent time helping her find the racing line, learn the track, and get comfortable behind the wheel. The two had an absolute blast, and Caroline did fantastic! 👏

Ultimately, the race came to an end and Jacob was credited with the win, but that wasn't what mattered most to us that day. Watching Jacob take the time to help and encourage another new driver was the real victory. Racing is about more than checkered flags — it's about teaching, learning, helping others, and growing the sport we love. ❤️🏁

A huge thank you to everyone who continues to support Jacob Hassey Racing and our journey!

🔜 NEXT UP

Next weekend we're headed to Caraway Speedway, and then it's time to start getting everything ready for Bandolero Nationals at Echo Park! 🇺🇸🏁

The biggest races of the season are getting closer, and we're ready to get to work!

Race. Learn. Grow. Repeat.

🏁 HELP SEND JACOB HASSEY RACING TO BANDOLERO NATIONALS! 🏁

The biggest race of the year is almost here! 🇺🇸🏆

Jacob Hassey Racing is heading to Echo Park Speedway for the Bandolero Nationals, and we’re asking our friends, family, fans, and supporters to help us make this opportunity possible.

This season has been an incredible journey for Jacob. From battling at some of the toughest tracks to earning an invitation to the Kyle Busch Invitational at Bowman Gray Stadium, he has continued to learn, grow, and compete at a high level. Now, he gets the opportunity to take on some of the best Bandolero drivers from across the country at Nationals. 🔥

Getting to Nationals is a HUGE commitment for a small family race team. Travel, lodging, entry fees, tires, fuel, maintenance, and everything that goes into putting a competitive car on the track adds up quickly.

💥 WE NEED YOUR HELP! 💥

If you’d like to support Jacob’s journey to Nationals, every contribution makes a difference, no matter the amount.

If you are interested in supporting Jacob, please comment on this post or send a direct message for payment details.

💰 Whether it’s $10, $25, $50, or simply sharing this post — your support helps put Jacob one step closer to the starting line.
And for businesses looking to get involved, we’d love to talk about sponsorship opportunities and ways we can showcase your company throughout Nationals and the remainder of the season.

This isn’t just about one race. It’s about giving a young racer the opportunity to chase a dream, compete against the best, and continue building his future in racing. 🏁❤️
Thank you to everyone who has supported Jacob Hassey Racing throughout this journey. We truly couldn’t do it without you!

🔥 LET’S GET JACOB TO NATIONALS! 🔥

Races 2 and 3 at Dominion were a mixed bag for us today. Finished p4 in race one and 8th in outlaws in the second race.

Unfortunately when Jacob went to go out for the second round we had an issue with a stubborn throttle pedal, and with no time to change anything he had to jump in his car that was last ran at Bowman Gray. Change of car meant starting at the back. Believe it or not it was ...okay for a bit until he cut a tire ending his day.

Final day and last two races tomorrow as we round out the road course racing as we gear up for Nationals.

Race 1of 5 is in the books for the day. Jacob finished in 2nd place, but was the fastest car on the track. Rob Brown in his first road race finished p3!! Hope it's a start of a great weekend!

Here are a few pictures from yesterday at Bowman Gray.

🏁 Kyle Busch Invitational — Bowman Gray Stadium Recap 🏁

What an absolute HONOR it was to be a part of the Kyle Busch Invitational at the legendary Bowman Gray Stadium. ❤️🏁

The day started with a pretty serious rainstorm, but Mother Nature cleared things up just in time. As the clouds broke, an unbelievable sky lit up behind the Stadium — setting the stage for a night that was exciting, emotional, and truly special.

Jacob said before the race that Bowman Gray is now his favorite track, and he definitely showed it on the track!

Practice went really well, but we took a shot in qualifying and tried to give him a little more. Unfortunately, it didn't quite work in our favor. Jacob ended up starting 15th out of 18 of the very best Bandolero drivers in the nation, including both Outlaws and Bandits.

With the field being as stacked as it was, qualifying times were incredibly tight. The smallest hiccup could mean several positions, and that's exactly where we found ourselves.

But we went to work.

🔧 We made some adjustments, the car woke back up, and Jacob went to work.
In a short, intense race, Jacob drove his butt off, charging from 15th to finish 9th — and by the end of the race, he was one of the faster cars on the track. 💪🔥

Considering the caliber of this field, we're incredibly proud of that drive.

A HUGE thank you to everyone who came out to Bowman Gray to support, cheer, and encourage Jacob. Seeing and hearing everyone behind him meant more to our family and team than we can put into words. ❤️

We sincerely hope this becomes an annual event, because we absolutely loved Bowman Gray Stadium and everything about this experience.

And a special THANK YOU to Race Driven Performance for putting another absolute ROCKET underneath Jacob! 🚀

Next up ➡️ Dominion Raceway in Virginia for some road course racing, then it's time to turn our focus toward the National events!

The journey continues. 🏁🔥
