What a day! WHAT A DAY! We arrived at Island Dragway for the last Summit Series points day today. Headed into the event we had a little more than four round lead for the track championship. We really just needed to come and qualify to secure the championship. Christian came ready with a .012 and 8.900 pass with the 8.90 dial in from yesterdays rained out race. From that pass, Christian clinched the 2026 Island Dragway Jr Dragster points Track Championship! This is Christians 4th Championship ( 3 track Championships from Atco, Cecil and now Island and 1 Divison 1 Championship under his belt. ) He will now run the Race of Champions event in a few weeks and try to follow in big brothers footsteps and win that!

Christian took the #1 qualifier position today AND followed up his Track Championship with a win today as well!

Thanks to Half Scale Dragsters Craw's Racing (Kubicke Motorsports Racing) and Slick Kids Apparel for the continued support!

Ready for the next few races

Two tracks this weekend! Today was Cecil County Dragway for the Mid Atlantic Junior Dragster race. With the threa of rain around 3-4pm, it was previously determined that it would be a one time run and go situation. Christian went out 1st pass and ran 8.91. Perfect! We were on a ladder and paired up with a friend we race with at our local track. Christian ended up getting the automatic win as our opponent red lighted. Christian ran it all the way out and ran 8.83 🤔
As we were waiting for 2nd round, the sky got really dark, rain came in quickly along with thunder and ligtening to end the day of racing. The remaining cars split the payout and we came home with a little more then we went with! It was a good day and we finally got to see some of our other team Slick Kids Apparel teammates! Off to another track tomorrow!

This weekend we were scheduled to go back to Island Dragway for our points day on Sunday. However, on Saturday morning, the check engine light came on in our truck. We were hesitant to travel with the trailer over an hour to go racing. But being less than one round out of first place, we decided to give it a chance.

Many of the regular points racers were away at Bristol for the ECF, so car count was lower than usual. It was our time to try and make up some points, even if it is just one round. Christian was focused all day long and ended up being number 2 qualifier, and eventually found himself in the final. Christian had the reaction time advantage by over .06 but misjudged the finish line and gave it back to settle for runner up.

Sundays outcome pushed us into first place, with an almost 3 round lead over 2nd place, and a 5 round lead over 3rd place with just two more points races left. Thanks Slick Kids Apparel

It’s pretty crazy to think that this weekends outing was only our third race weekend this season. Usually, we are on our third month of racing by now. On Saturday, headed out the Mid Atlantic .90 jr only event Cecil County Dragway. The weather finally cooperated on a race day, or so we thought. We battled windy conditions all day which made it hard to dial in the car. First pass we battled a tail wind that made us go too fast. We ended up adding weight to the car to slow it down, and then ran over a tenth slower, as we battled a head wind on that pass. For first round, we dialed in between the two passes, and the car seemed to pick up a ton, over a tenth and a half. Christian did his job on the tree and at top end pedaling to not break out but couldn’t pedal enough and still broke out by .04 for the first round loss. We stayed the entire event and watched one of our good friends get his first win ever in the 6-12 yr old bracket. We also watched fellow Slick Kids Apparel sponsored driver, Guilia Held win the 13 and up class. It may not have been our day, but it was still a good day. It felt great to be back at the track and see some of our friends whom we haven’t seen since last year.

After a lot of off season delays, we finally got to hit the track for the 1st time this 2026 season, Only to run 1 of our friends from Maple Grove 1st round. 🤷🏻‍♀️. we ended up winning 1st round, but lost 2nd round on a breakout. Overall a good first day out. It feels good to be back to our "normal"
