🏁Weekend Recap-First race without the plate!
Friday was a great day for the #14 car! It marked his fifth race ever, his first race without the restrictor plate, and his first race under the lights.
Early in the race he gave the wall a little “kiss,” which knocked the chain off- but he managed to get it onto pit road where Carson Haislip Racing and Slammy Inc. Racing jumped in immediately. Huge appreciation to these teams for getting him fixed up and back out there in no time.
Even a couple laps down, he settled in and was cruising solidly in third place when Paxton Cole Motorsports spun in front of him, leaving him nowhere to go but the wall. Thankfully the damage wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been and he was able to finish the race.
It was a long day, but a great chance to shake down the car without the plate and learn what it needs moving forward. A big thank you to Noah and Chad for the quick help in the pits and for keeping the car rolling. We’re grateful for the support and excited for what’s ahead!
