So it all comes down to this...Points race #10 at Little T Quarter Midget Club.

Jackson got to run another Blue Rookie race, so let's do that first.

The heat was something special. Jack was starting 6 of 6, so he had some work to do. But he was focused and ready to go this time. Taking his chrome and blue machine up to a P2 finish. Making some confident passes along the way.

The feature started with Jack in p2. At the start, he was riding up high when another driver washed up a bit, giving him a love tap that sent him to the wall, then down to the grass. Car was OK, so he got back out there in the back and went to work. Once again making some clean, confident passes. after a great race, he came home with a p4.

The Lite 160 championship was all but locked up, as was the Lite World Formula. But the Sr. Animal was anything but a certainty.

Reid entered the day with a 3 point advantage over the 2nd place driver, meaning that he had to finish at least one spot behind his buddy Grant in the feature.

Starting in his least favorite spot, p4, Reid had some work to do. And things did not start well. About 5 laps into the heat. Reid was setting up for a pass to move into 3rd when the car in front spun. With nowhere to go, Reid clipped the other car with his Right front tire, turning his front axle into a pretzel and ending his heat with a p6 DNF.

Luckily, we have a great community at Little T and most everyone loves Reid. He had the car owner, Justin Bowman immediately tearing the bent parts out and nearly ripping the front axle pit of his own kid's car to get Reid back on track. But next thing we knew, we had a line of handlers and drivers holding fresh axles for us to put in for him. After a panicked hour or so of replacing the axle, broken rods and shock, getting the car back to square and somewhat balanced, we were hoping for the best.

Reid strapped in, knowing what he needed to do and wanting to prove something to everyone in attendance.

Today was his day.

Starting p6, with the car he was eying at p2, we knew there was work to be done and on the first lap of the feature, disaster tried to strike again...Reid was once again setting up to make a move, when the car in front of him spun, fortunately this time he was ready. He slammed the brakes and turned narrowly avoiding the same result as the heat.

After the re-rack, Reid went to work. Passing his way up to 3rd when the red flag came out for a big wreck. This time he wasn't close to it.

Now he was in position. Sitting right behind Grant on the restart. After a couple laps, Reid went for it, making the pass up to 2nd and he had his sights on the leader. Slowly but surely, Reid reeled in Liam and cleanly took the lead, for good. Now it was just 8 laps of lap traffic to work through, with Liam fighting hard to get him back. But Reid was on a mission and would not be denied. He stretched the lead to abour a car length and held on for the WIN!!!!

It was all against him, but as the kids say, pressure makes diamonds and this kid sure does shine!!!

We couldn't be more proud of both of our drivers this year. Jackson made some real strides and Reid set himself a goal early in in the season and stayed focused until he achieved it.

3 Stanley Quarter Midgets. 3 Championships.

Thank you so much to Justin Bowman for letting Reid drive that Sr. Animal hot rod all year long. Thanks to Sonny Anderson and Al Monte for all of your help this season. Thanks Celeste Chenet-monte for the tires so Tyler Anderson could get the stagger he wanted. Thanks to Rebecca Rivard and Cameron Anderson for keeping the handlers under control and the kids fed all season long. It really does take a village and ours is amazing.

Just a couple more fun races to round out the year and Dave has a chili cook off title to defend, so we're not done yet.

It was points race #9 at Little T Quarter Midget Club this weekend, and what a weekend we had.

Started on Saturday for an arrive and drive. We gave about 50 kids the chance to drive a quarter midget. Excellent work from all the members that came to help and a special shoutout to all the drivers that came to help.

Then over to the bowling alley for an impromptu birthday party for Reido. Nothing like some bowling and laser tag to make your Saturday night special.

Now to the racing...

We'll do Jackson first. Jack was ready to go for the heat. He started p1 and held it for a short while, then got passed. But he stayed strong and finished p3.
Starting 3 in the feature he didn't get the best start, but was fighting to pass a car back and got himself mixed up. Off to the back. Then he fought back tried to make another pass and ended up getting sent into the wall, earning his first ride off the track on the cart, with a DNF.

Reid on the other hand was dialed in. He's been locked in three battles all year for points championships. All with our buddy Grant Hartleben (and we couldn't be happier to be battling this family. It's fun, it's respectful and really shows what QM racing can be.)

Lite 160 heat was first.
Reid drew the low pill and started p1. He took the opportunity and kept that 1 on his car.

Next Sr. Animal heat. This time we started p5, but one of the cars up front had to come off, moving Reid to p4 for the start, which he hates. But, knowing he had the Justin Bowman powered Stanley Bullet under him, he stayed patient and cruised to another heat win.

Last was the Lite World Formula. And Grant brought it to him today. Reid once agin drew the low pill, but this race was anything but east on my heart. The stagger on the car was a little off, so Reid had to do whatever he could to keep Grant off his tail and take home his 3rd heat win of the day.

Now for the features.

Lite 160 - Reid started p1 and the race went green to checkered. Reid drove the thing like he was machine programmed and rolled to a fairly dominant win. All but assuring him the season championship!!!

Sr. Animal - another p1 start. Reid saw his buddy Dillon get hurt earlier in the day and seeing as this is Dillon's car, Reid set out to win it for his friend. This one had a few cautions mixed in, but Reid was far ahead of any mixups and once again drove like a machine, taking home an even more dominant win. And Dillon got to hand him the flag for his victory lap.

Lite Word Formula - Starting p1 with a 6 race sweep on the line, everyone's nerves were on edge. Everyone but Reid that is.
Reid got the pole again and for 30 laps, he and Grant battled. Reid just wouldn't give Grant the opening he needed to get by. Grant peeked a couple times, but once again, he drove with respect and didn't risk the race for himself or Reid.
Long story short Reid took home the WIN again!!!!

6 times getting in the car yesterday and 6 times crossing the finish line first!!!! No better feeling in the world.

And this sets up a final points race showdown between Grant and Reid in the Animal and World. Winner takes the championship in both classes. Get your popcorn ready, I for one cannot wait!!!

Thank you so much to Justin Bowman for letting Reid drive that rocket every week.

Thanks as always to Sonny Anderson and Al Monte for all of your help this week in the shop.

And thank you to Grant, Chris Forster Ashley Hartleben Jordan Hartleben and your whole team for making this such a fun year of racing!!

We returned home to Little T Quarter Midget Club this weekend for the first ever "Super Feature Day".
All classes ran Cup races, so with timing and longer races, it was a long day.

The whole team knew they had their work cut out for them. Tyler and Dave (especially Tyler) put in longer hours in the shop and the whole team was locked in.

Jackson worked hard to dial in his Blue rookie line and it showed in his time trial. Where he ran his fastest laps ever. He was a little disappointed in the result once he found out his starting spot, p7, but we reminded him that many of these kids are nearly twice his age. And he cheered up.

Reid timed in three cars:
Lite 160 - 3rd
Sr. Animal - 1st
Lite World Formula - 1st

So with all our cars starting on the inside and Reid on the pole in two of them, we felt like we were in the cat bird seat.

First up was the 160.

Starting p3, Reid got a good start and tucked in to 2nd for a few laps while he waited for his tires to come in. Once he felt like the car was gripping the track, he made the move to p1 and never looked back. A few cautions gave us some heartburn, but Reid drove it like a machine and took down his first Cup win of the day!!!!

Next came the Animal.

This time Reid had the pole. And another car that was absolutely flying. This one was fun. Reid opened up a big lead on the start and was once again driving like he was pre-programmed. Not a hesitation going through lap traffic, it was something to see. Then, our heart all jumped into our throats, when with about 10 to go, he was moving up on some more lap cars and one spun. Right in front of him. But with what can only be described as Jedi-like premonition, Reid darted under the spinning car, missing it by about an inch and saving his day. (This is your reminder to tell your kids to always look up the track). After the restart, Reid ran away with his second cup win of the day!!!

Next came Jackson on his Blue rookie machine. 20 laps was a bit much for him. And an improperly tightened wheel nut made it all that much harder when he had to come from the back. But Jack fought hard and drove his heart out. He finished somewhere in tbe 7/8 range, but got some very valuable experience. Then he caught his very first fish in the pond out back, so his day was saved...

Last but not least, the Lite World Formula.

40 laps to glory. And Reid definitely wanted that glory. The race started great, Reid jumped out to the biggest lead he's ever had in this car. He was driving hard, maybe a bit too hard. We saw it coming, hoped it wouldn't, but with only 4 laps to go, he moved to pass a lap car and lost the back end, spinning himself...frustration set in and he couldn't get the car to turn down, resulting in a 3rd place finish.

All in all, it was a great day, we won, we lost, but most importantly everyone on the team learned something important. We got to taste some humble pie, which doesn't taste great, but it's necessary sometimes.

Thank you to everyone from Little T, and all the help we got from our support system this week.

Back at it again in a couple of weeks.

Thanks as always to Sonny Anderson for all your help on the cars.

Happy Birthday Reido!

What a weekend at Little T Quarter Midget Club!!!!

It was the Hoenig Memorial race weekend and boy was it fun.

Racing started Saturday afternoon with time trials, we decided to leave the Animal in the trailer this weekend, so here's how it went.

Reid in the 160 first - qualified 4th

Jackson in his Blue Rolkie Machine - qualified 3rd

Reid's World Formula - Fast time, qualified p1!!!

First time Reid has ever put down a fast time in time trials!!!

Then it was time for the kids to play and the parents to relax among friends.

Sunday was A Main day.

Reid up first in the 160. Unfortunately, coming out of the start, Reid was trying g to get down, when the cars in front got mixed up, leaving him nowhere to go. Breaking a rod and bending the front axle just enough to make the car not turn properly. He battled it all the way back up to 5, but making the move to 4, the bad luck continued and the p4 car spun right in front of Reid. He hit him square in the side, actually turning the car back straight, which would have allowed the race to continue, but a car behind them stopped which forced a restart from p5. Then as much as he tried, the car just wouldn't stay straight, Reid spun twice and did all he could to finish p7.

Next up, Jackson. Jack was on the gas early and made some moves, running in 2nd, the 4th place car went to make a pass and speared him in tbe side, forcing a restart from near the back (4th). Once again, Jackson fought his way up to 3rd but this time the 4th place car tried to get him on the outside. Resulting in another crash. But that wouldn't slow Jack down. He restarted and stayed in the gas, we thought it was a 4th place finish, but forgot the car in front of him was a lap down, so Jackson got 3rd!!!!

Last car of the day was the Lite World Formula for Reid. Starting p1, he knew he had his work cut out for him, because Grant and the whole Hartleben Racing team were gunning to win this one.
The race started good, Reid got a decent jump and built up a small lead off the bat. But an early caution erased that and the two boys were locked in a battle for the ages. Reid would gain a few inches one turn, then Grant would take them back the next turn. On every restart, they we glued to each other. Then, with about 35 of the 40 laps gone, Grant made his move and got by Reid. Only to have a car at the back spin, forcing a restart and giving Reid the top spot back. Reid knew then, that he had once chance and shifted to the low groove and held on for dear life and 5 laps of tension to bring home the WIN!!!!!

Big shoutout to Lucy Hartleben for getting back behind the wheel, and with only one bribe of a big bowl of watermelon, hitting the gas to her first win!!

This weekend is what Quarter Midget Racing should be about. Some of the luck and a few calls went against us, some went for us. But at the end of the day, ALL the kids had a blast making memories with their friends that will last a lifetime and all the parents laughing throughout a lot of good, healthy competition.

Thanks as always to Sonny Anderson and Al Monte for all your help and support.

See you all in a couple weeks.

Back at it at Little T Quarter Midget Club for points race #7!

It was a wild day, starting with a flat tire on the trailer, resulting in us rolling into the facility quite a bit late.

So to the racimg...

Reid started the day in his Lite 160, starting p1 in heat 2, he cruised to a fairly clean win. Setting up a p2 start in the A main.

Next up was the Sr. Animal. That did not go well...the car just chugged along slowly, gasping for gas for a few laps, until Reid finally stopped so we could find out what was up. Turns out the carb was all gunked up, so after a quick choke in the pits, we got him back out there, but the car was still not right and he limped to a last place finish and a p7 starting spot in the main.

Reid got a short break next, while Jackson took the wheel in his Blue Rookie machine. And he was wheeling it, starting p1, he jumped out to a good lead for a few laps. But then as the 2nd place car was making the pass, he got up into Jackson's side and sent him straight into the wall...after a few tears of surprise and frustration, we pushed him back off where he pushed it hard, making a clean pass and finished p4.

Last heat of the day was the Lite World Formula. The race started clean, and Reid drove the poorly set up car as well as he could, finishing p2.

On to the features.

Lite 160. Starting on the outside pole, Reid did well to fight down quickly and settle into 3rd. The car wasn't where we wanted it to be, so he battled hard and drove patiently, waiting for the chance to overtake the leaders, but before that, the 2nd place car tried to take the lead and the two got mixed up, luckily, Reid was looking up the track and narrowly avoided the wreck (not without some contact). Going to 1 at the restart was all he needed, Reid cruised out front for the final 12 or so laps for a big win.

The Animal was next. And Reid had some work to do. With a clean carb, the car was a lot better. He easily jump up to p4 within a lap or two and then after playing around with the 4th place car for a few laps, he moved up to 3rd. Then the red flags started...after three big wrecks, the race resumed with only 2 laps to go. In p3, Reid didn't get the restart he was looking for, so he couldn't make a move in turn 1, but just after the white flag fell, the leaders got together on the back stretch and it looked like Reid had a chance to steal one. But coming to the turn, he backed out just a touch, fearing he was gonna wreck the field, setting up a three wide run to the finish. Reid came up just short, finishing p3, in the best Animal race we've seen all year.

Jackson's Blue Rookie main was next. Starting p4, Jack got a great start and worked his way to p3 in no time. Then something looked wrong. He just slowed down. It was weird and he looked a little lime he was just real tired. Falling to the back, he finished p5.
Once the race was over, we found that his steering wheel had come loose, and he was afraid to go fast in case it came off entirely. So he learned that he is allowed to stop if that happens and let us fix it.

Last but not least (or definitely least) was the World Formula. Boy did we miss on the setup. The car was a little loose in the heat, so we made some adjustments, but the track tightened up as well, so the car just wouldn't turn. Reid fought hard, had a great start and battled as well as he could. But it was a rough day and he finished 4th.

Thanks as always to Sonny Anderson and Al Monte for all of your help!

Currently looking to fire our social media manager because he missed one of the most popular drivers birthdays a few days back! His famous eye rolls, his epic dance moves, and his absolutely hysterical antics define him off the track, but on the track he is locked in and ready to move! With an epic showing at the Firecracker 40 in hot pursuit of the leader, its Jackson! Happy Birthday Jackson!

06/30/2026

Another great day at Little T Quarter Midget Club this weekend!!
Boy was it hot!! But so were our drivers!
Jackson seems to have woken up after his remarkable showing last week. He had a great pill draw, starting P1 in the heat. He never looked back; cruising to a solid heat win!!
Next up was Reid's 160 heat. Starting in his least favorite spot, P4. He got a solid start, then quickly worked his way up to 2nd. After a few laps of letting the car come in, the leader felt Reid on his tail and made a slight wobble that spun him around. After the restart in P1, Reid cruised out to another heat win.
Next up was the Animal. Starting P3, Reid got it into P2 right at the start! The car was a little loose, so with about 15 to go, Reid made a mistimed attempt at the pass for the lead, it didn't work. He washed up, got himself spun and sent to the back. So, he got a great restart and jumped a spot right after the dot going into turn 1 and worked his way back towards the front. Racing hard, he made the move for P2 at the line but was just short of the pass, leaving him with a P3 finish.
Last up for the heats was the World Formula. Starting P2, he got a bad start and fell back to 3rd.Took a few laps, but he worked it back up to P2. But the miss on gearing and sloppy entries, that was where he was gonna finish.

After some quick changes and tire maintenance, it was A main time.

Jackson went out first and starting P1, he left no one in doubt of who was gonna win that race. It really looks like Jack has found that gas pedal. Taking down his first WIN!!! Mr. Popular, is now leading the pack both on and off the track. We couldn't be more proud!!

Reid's 160 was next. And it wasn't all that eventful. Starting P1, he was a full turn out front fairly quickly and it appears that the new motor is indeed a strong one. That and some machine-like driving brought out Reid's 2nd 160 win of the year!!

Animal next. This car is a rocket amd if Reid has his head screwed on straight, it sure is fun to watch. Same should to be said for his dad, because right when we pushed him off, we realized that we forgot to top off the fuel. This was gonna be interesting...Starting P3, he got a good start and stayed in 2. Then, once again today, as Reid was setting up his move to the lead, the leader spun out. Now it was a battle against time and fuel...Reid stayed out front through all the restarts, pushing his lead to a big one each time. The cautions kept coming and the parade laps were piling up... all we could do was hope. Then, at long last the checkers flew with Reid taking the win (with a bone dry gas tank that was was choking on the victory laps)!!!

And last bit not least, the World Formula. We started P2 and it was another poor start, moving him to 3. Shortly thereafter he was back in 2 and it looked like the gear change was working. Slowly but surely (with some assistance from caution flags) he started to reel Grant in. The car was still tight and the left front was lifting going into the turns. Not trusting the car or wanting to wreck his friend, Reid took a peek on the final lap, but made the smart decision to settle for 2nd.

Huge shoutout to Grant "G-Money" Hartleben for fighting through the heat and sickness to take down his first ever Lite World Formula win!!!

Thank you as always to Sonny Anderson and Al Monte for all of your help and support!!!

It was a trip to Silver City Quarter Midget Track this weekend for the AMF team to complete in the Lou Sherman memorial race. It was a long day, but the results made it worth it.

Time trial first.
Jackson went out and hit the gas for most of his 8 laps, only good enough to qualify 5 out of 6, but not bad for his first time on any track that isn't Little T Quarter Midget Club.

Reid fost took the track in his lite 160. His team missed on tbe gear for timing, but still good enough to qualify 5th and get seated straight in the A main.
Next up was his lite World Formula. This did not go as well. The team missed on setup and Reid missed on his marks, landing him tbe 11th "best" qualifying time a a p5 in the B main.

The WF B main went about as good as the timing...Reid just needs more laps on this track in that car. The setup was still off and so was his line, so we finished somewhere near the back and ended that cars day there.

Next came the features and making any A main at the largest Quarter Midget Club in the country is no joke.

Jackson went first. Starting p5. They lined up well and the race went green. You wouldn't have known it though, as all but the #1 car just kept rolling along at caution speed. Then all of the sudden, Jack saw the green and hit the gas. Making passes very cleanly, and lapping everyone except the leader. Jackson's first race at Silver City and he took 2nd!!!

Reid and the 160 were next. We have been looking forward to this for a week, to test Reid and his new motor against the best of the best.
Starting p5, Reid did what he was supposed to on the start and held his position down low, coming out of the first lap in p3. After a few laps, the caution came out and we restarted from 3, he got a little high in the restart and dropped down to 4, but stayed focused and drove his way back up to 3. Then we stayed green for some 20 or so laps, there was a lot of great driving going on, from Reid, Logan, Matthew, Joshua, Liam, Grant and Danny. 7 fast cars all battling hard. Reid took advantage of an opening and took it up to p1 fir but, then the Silver City shuffle came out and he fell back to 5th. But once again, he was NOT going to be stopped on this night. He fought his way back up to 3, then literally banged and fought off the competition for the final three laps to take home the hardest fought 3rd place finish of his life. Truly amazing to watch and the best father's day gift I could have asked for.

All in all, it was a long day, but the wait was worth it. Thank you to the entire Silver City QMC team for making it a great weekend. We'll see you all soon.

Thank you as always to Sonny Anderson and Al Monte for your help and support.

Special thanks to McKinley Burrows-Racing for the new motor and exhaust that really pulled that 160 together.

See you all back at Little T next weekend!!!

04/28/2026

We're back!!!!!

Opening day at Little T Quarter Midget Club was delayed a week, but that made for one heck of a double header weekend!!

Saturday was opening day, we got to knock the rust off and test out a few changes in a non points day.

Jackson went out and went 1>1 in his heat l, then 1>1 in the main. Locking down his FIRST EVER WI in a quarter midget.

Reid started his day in the 160, going 2>3 in the heat, making it clear that the motor refresh we did this winter wasn't up to scratch. But, the main went OK. He held it right at 3 and finished on the podium.

World Formula was the last out. And the one we both most excited and nervous about. But the nerves were all for naught. Reid drove that thing like we've never seen. Cruising to 1>1 in the heat. Then the main came and he nearly got to completely check out. Building nearly a 3/4 track lead before the caution came out with 10 to go and tighten up the field. But the result was never in question. FIRST WIN in the Worl Formula class!!

On to Sunday amd points race #1.

The day started once again with Jackson going 1>1 in his heat. Then came the main...Jack hopped out to a nice lead and was cruising, but then lap traffic came into the mix with 3 to go and Jack got confused, tried to pass on the outside and by the time he slowed to swing the car down under the slower car, the driver in 2nd had snuck under him and overtaken the top spot. But we learned something and still ended with a hard flight 2nd place.

Reid had some of the same luck on Sunday as he had Saturday. Starting 2 in the 160 heat, he battled hard to keep it up front, eventually having to settle for another 3rd place result. In the main, he got a good jump at the start and got up to 2nd. Where he stayed for most of the race. But we saw the motor get tired, hoped for the caution that never came and had to settle for another 3rd place finish.

Now the world. Starting p2 I. The heat this time, Reid didn't get the best jump on the start, so he tucked it in behind the leader amd waited for his spot to make the pass. But the car wasn't responding the way he likes, so after a few looks at it, he decided to stay out of harm's way and just take a 2nd place finish in the heat and have his team work on the handling during intermission. All in all, a wise choice. Tyler made a few adjustments for the main and he was able to make the move he couldn't in the heat, about three lapsinto the main and checked out from there. Another WIN!!

All in all it was one heck of a weekend and we can't wait to get back out there next weeoend!!

Thank you to Al Monte (Poppy's Body Works), Sonny Anderson, and Andrew Monte for your support!!

Any local businesses that want to get their logo on the best looking quarter midget team in the nation, give us a shout, any and all support is welcome and beyond appreciated.
