Little safety update to the e36 today. New Racetech seat, refreshed fire bottle, and added a chassis mount shifter. Excited for the season start in a few weeks!

Keeping an endurance race car going is tough, but no one talks about the maintenance required for the other things that support your race team. Generators, trucks, trailers, pit bikes….the list goes on. Luckily this Bravo Trailers LLC has been rock solid. It’s gathered a lot of miles the last few years and will see much more next season. Simple bearing repack to verify the health of everything, and back on the road!

Sharing the carnage that caused our DNF Saturday at PittRace. Not sure the cause. All bearings still in good shape. Remembering hitting a car with the left rear tire at VIR. Maybe that started the damage and Bill Woods (as he always does 😂) finished off. Regardless it was awesome to see the team come together and get this thing back on track for Sunday!

Recap of an odd weekend. Not only was it a race weekend, it was also at my favorite place to be in the world. I was expecting the best weekend ever. Yet the paddock was mixed with emotions as this was our last time at Pittsburgh International Race Complex before it was shutdown for good. We still kept smiles on our faces, thankful to get one last race in at this world class facility. Race 1 had our BMW showing more speed than we ever had before. Right up until hour 3 when the pinion gear in the differential exploded. After a short 8hr drive, Carlos stole one out of his race car in Maryland. Unfortunately the limited slip in that diff was worn and we had trouble putting power to the ground in race 2. Brought home a 12th overall (out of 65ish).

I always add at the end of these recaps to support those that support racing. Let’s not forget to also support your local tracks so they can continue to operate. If you ever wanted to get on track, make the leap…you never know when that opportunity will be gone.

Huge thanks to Blendzall Racing Oil for their support and keeping this engine alive through all the torture.
Props to ChampCar Endurance Series for sending PittRace out in style with another great event.
Tire Rack.com, Nine Lives Racing, and DiscoveryParts not only support our series but keep us reliable and quick.

Thanks to PittRace for all the memories, the people I’ve met, and the lessons I’ve learned. From the sunrises over the water tower to watching the sunsets while telling stories in the paddock. Will always be proud to call this my home track. 😢

Well it’s been 5 years since this sketchy Facebook marketplace transaction. Countless garage hours and 120+ racing hours later, we’ve got to run the high banks at Daytona, dodge the blue Armco at historic Watkins Glen, and even take home some trophy’s. Never thought a silly $800 purchase could take me on so many adventures! Looking forward to keeping it going, can’t wait for what’s next….

What a weekend…Balthazor MotorWerks competed in the Lifeline 24hr Classic at VIRginia International Raceway. Blendzall Racing Oil took care of the engine and we completed the entire 24hrs with essentially no issues! That’s 414 laps, 1354 miles in the humidity and through the darkness. We had one little touch with another car, a couple 4 offs that turned the BMW into a lawnmower, one wire that caught slight fire, and a miscalculation of fuel mileage resulting in coasting into pit lane. The whole thing was an awesome adventure and couldn’t ask for a better result for our first 24hr. Finished 8th overall out of 60.

Drivers: Bill Woods, Carlos Mahomar, Mitchell Marhefka, and Zack Balthazor threw down some quick and consistent laps while staying out of trouble.
Pit Crew: Larry Rebecca Whetzel, , Ray Buck, , and kept this thing running all weekend. We lost zero time on pit road. You guys absolutely killed it! Can’t thank you enough for enduring the heat and sleep deprivation!

Appreciate Tire Rack ChampCar Endurance Series for another great weekend. Thanks to VIR for the amazing facilities and welcoming us. Can’t thank Blendzall enough for creating a great product helping this car last at redline for 24hrs.

Plans are to be at Mid-Ohio next month!

Race weekend update, better late than never!

We completed the double 7’s at Watkins Glen International. The Blendzall BMW ran flawlessly for all 14hrs at this iconic track. We managed to keep it out of the famous blue guardrail despite the nasty weather. Brought home 8th in class and 11th overall out of 100 signed up. I can’t thank Bill Woods, Carlos Mahomar, and Larry Rebecca Whetzel enough for taking care of the car during their stints, making fast pit stops, and just making an all around good environment to hang out in all weekend.

Let’s always support those companies that support our hobbies…

Sunday live stream. Race starts at 9am. Random draw has us starting dead last around 100th place. Should be interesting.

This is a live stream of the Balthazor Racing - Watkins Glen - Champ Car Sunday 5/24/2025 race event presented by MyRaces.Live

05/25/2025

Made it to the finish after 7hrs at Watkins Glen International. 10th in class and 19th overall out of 100 cars. Treacherous conditions with on and off rain but the Blendzall BMW made it to the checkers unharmed and running strong for tomorrow’s race.
