Saturday night was a hot one! Ended the night in 4th place. The car was a handful from the drop of the green flag. It was a race of several until the track temps dropped towards the end and we could make one final charge. Top 5 with minimal damage, good weekend for us!

Clutch went out in the final practice. My guys got it back together just in time for qualifying! Qualified P4 but will be starting 10th after the invert. Hope a little luck is on our side for the next 100 laps!

After some adjustments on the scales/pulldown rig, this ol’hot rod should be ready to rip. Found a few things that could’ve been costing us some speed. Hoping for so good results this weekend, during the Firecracker, at Salem Speedway!

Started the 2025 season with solid opening day. Gained speed in each practice session. P4 in Qualifying @ 19.580s. Finished the Feature in 4th as well. The momentum is building for another strong season!

As always, support those who support us. Thank you!

Well…. Here it is! Our 2025 Street Stock. Solid day of practice at Salem Speedway. We made gains each time we went out. Hoping to build on that tomorrow morning and set us up for a good showing in the race.

Added another 🐎 to the stable! Open Wheel Modifieds have been on my bucket list since day one. Thanks to 3 marketing partners, whom stepped up in a huge way to make this venture possible. Time to get this hot rod freshen up and head to the track!

The good stuff!

We finally did it! 2024 Champions on the high banks of Salem Speedway. This has been a goal at the top of my racing career before I ever strapped into my first race car. Growing up around Salem Speedway is where I fell in love with racing. I have several wins and championships across a few different divisions, but nothing compares to this one. To say this season has been mentally draining would be an understatement. This was truly a team effort, that I could’ve never achieved on my own. Blood, sweat, tears, the drive to do better and make the most out of every situation is what lead our team to pull this one off. This is a first, winning the championship while never winning a race. Clearly it shows the dedication our team has to never give up. There are many individuals, family, friends and sponsors who made this dream a reality. I am forever grateful for their support. On to the next one!
