From the back of a truck to Victory Lane! 🏁🏆

While it’s no epic Kyle Larson story, Jax’s third weekend racing outlaw karts on dirt ended with his first dirt win!

The night started with Draw 86, putting Jax starting 3rd in his heat race. He jumped to 2nd at the start, took the lead with a few laps to go, and held on to win the heat.

That heat win earned Jax the pole for the main event. He took off from the start, never looked back, and brought home his first-ever main event win on dirt!🏁🔥

Race Day!

Since school started back up, it’s been tough to get out racing, especially with most tracks being 6+ hours away. But today, we’re sneaking off to Gila Monster Raceway in Globe to have some fun!

We threw everything in the back of the truck and are making it a quick trip. Let’s go racing! 🏁

Friday morning we were loaded up and headed to Texas to race Amarillo and Slaton. Once we got to Alamogordo, we found out Slaton had been rained out. We had a tough decision to make—drive all that way for just one race or turn around. After going back and forth, we decided to head home.

Once we got everything unloaded, we started playing musical race cars. And after a lot of debating and changing plans, we decided to scrap the Fox Body project and instead purchased a complete roller. It ended up saving us time, money, and a lot of work.

Jax and Dad took a 12-hour round trip, and brought home the new-to-him race car. Now all we need is a motor, and we can start getting some seat time. But Jax says Dad has to try it first to make sure it's good lol

🏁 Freedom Nationals is in the books! 🏁

After a rain delay, the track crew did an outstanding job getting the track back into racing condition.
Starting from 11th Jax worked his way up as high as 5th before getting tangled up with another kart in the final corner and ended up bringing it home in 8th place.

We couldn't be more proud of how Jax performed. This was only his second race weekend on dirt and in an outlaw kart, and his ability to adapt to changing track conditions has impressed us every step of the way. He's learning fast, gaining confidence every time he hits the track, and we're excited to see what the future holds.

A huge thank you to everyone who supports our racing program—our family, friends, sponsors, and everyone who cheers Jax on. We truly couldn't do it without you.
On to the next one! 👊🏁
