Had a pretty fast car last night, but things went from good to not so good in a hurry. 🤦‍♂️

Coming down the backstretch, the car in front of me slowed down for whatever reason, forcing me to get out of the throttle and hit the brakes. Unfortunately, I got hit from behind, which sent me spinning, and with the rest of the field coming behind me, they had nowhere to go. Needless to say, cars got wadded up in a hurry. The car took a pretty good hit, and I ended up needing the wrecker to get me off the track.

After going through the car today, it doesn’t appear there’s any frame damage, thankfully. Looks like it’s mostly bolt-on parts, so that’s definitely a positive!

The one bright side is that it was the last race of the year, so I have the off-season to get everything straightened out. I’ve already pulled the motor to get it overhauled, need to send the carburetor in to see if it’s still salvageable from the car that ended up on my hood, and then start the process of building a new body for the car.

Definitely not how I wanted to end the season, but that’s racing! Time to regroup, fix what’s broken, and get ready to come back stronger next year. 💪🏁

Thanks to everyone who helps me out and supports me along the way. It’s very much appreciated and it doesn’t go unnoticed. 

Also want to thank my sponsors for their support,  I couldn’t do it without them.

Had a productive test session at Cedar Lake Speedway tonight. Trying to find every bit of speed we can for tomorrow’s 10,000 to win show. Thanks The Midwest Racing Connection for the awesome shot.

Results from Chateau Speedway 3rd to 3rd in the heat and 4th to 5th in the feature, was running third for a while but the car was a little tight, and jumped the cushion a few times and finished in 5th all in all it was a great night of racing with clean door-to-door racing. Looking forward’s to getting back down there next year.

Definitely a night of ups and downs at the track last night! 🏁

I started the night by drawing 99 out of 100, which put me toward the back right away. I then got stuck in a stacked heat race with a lot of good cars. I started 9th and finished 7th in the heat. I definitely missed the setup, but made some changes afterward, and the car was a lot better.

Unfortunately, it seemed like I had something go wrong all night. First, the winch broke in the trailer. I was still fighting some braking issues with the car, and then, to top it off, the flywheel broke. I decided to roll the dice and take the chance of running it, and thankfully, it stayed together for the feature.

I started 17th in the feature and finished 13th. Definitely not the finish I was hoping for, but I learned a lot and made some changes that should help us going forward.

Sometimes you have nights where you just have to take what you can get, learn from it, and move on to the next one. We’ll keep digging! 💪🏁

Thanks to everyone who supports this race team and all of our sponsors!

Château Speedway last night! 🏁

Made the trip down with Matt and had a fun night of hard racing. Started 4th in the heat and finished 5th after the guy who passed me decided the best way to make the pass on the last lap coming out of 4 was to drive right through me. 😂

For the feature, we rolled off 9th and worked our way up to 6th. 💪

All in all, a great night with some good, hard racing! Going to give the car a once-over, make a few checks, and then it’s off to Cedar Lake Speedway tonight! 🔥🏁

Has a solid night at Princeton Speedway.  I haven’t been on a hammer down track like that in a while and It was a blast. Car needs some sheet metal work on the front nose piece and I’ve got a brake problem to figure out. Hoping to have the car together for Ogilvie tomorrow night.

Princeton Speedway was a blast fun little bowl ring track. Had a pretty fast car in the heat race 6th to 4th. Tried some new stuff on the set up knowing the track was gonna slick off went a little too far with it. The car had a push in the center of the corners  but I still managed to go 10th to 10th I’ll take it only be in my second time at that track with minimal damage.
