Disappointing weekend to finish the year. Unfortunately, we did not make the show, but we still had a lot of fun racing at Eldora Speedway. Already looking forward to next year and hope to see everyone at the track soon!

Thank you for all of the support throughout the season!

We had a great night at Florence Speedway with the Ohio Valley Late Model Dirt Series. We qualified 6th out of 25 steel blocks. A heat race win put us starting 3rd in the 25 lap feature. After falling to 6th early, we managed to charge to a 2nd place finish in an exhilarating race. I am very thankful and proud of the entire crew for making it happen!

Huge thank you to my Dad Jim, my Uncle Mike McDonald, Becky Cronin, Rick Bartlett, and Brian Noeth for making the trip to help out, as well as Carolyn McDonald, John and Joan Groves, and Jordan Friend. We could not have done it without you!

Congratulations to Zach Milbee Racing on the win!

It was a very solid weekend for the team. At Jackson County Speedway on Friday, we qualified 4th, started 7th in the feature, and made our way back to 4th by the end of the race.

At Atomic Speedway on Saturday, we qualified 3rd. With no heat race, we rolled straight into the feature where we started and finished 3rd for our first podium of the season!

Huge thank you to my Dad Jim, my uncle Mike McDonald, Becky Cronin, Rick Bartlett, and Brian Noeth for making the trip to help out, as well as Carolyn McDonald, John and Joan Groves, and Jordan Friend. We could not have done it without you!
