Not where we would like to be but with no timing today for qualifying and doing pill draw then a 4th place finish in the heat race we had to run the B Feature instead of the A today and was able to come home with the checkers. We only have 2 weeks left in this chapter of racing. Come see us next sunday the 16th at plymouth for season championships and then again in 2 weeks the 23rd for the season championships at kalamazoo.

Only photo we took today. Cousins lined up before first heat race. Car was pretty good for the day. Finished 3rd in the first heat and after a back and fourth battle between these 2 we finished 4th in the 2nd heat. Felt good about the feature but after a rough start and getting spun our day ended after an unfortunate part failure. Thats the no fun part of racing but we will get it fixed up and be ready for action again next sunday!

We only have 3 races left for the season planned at this point. Come see us next sunday august 9th at kalamazoo then season championships at plymouth sunday august 16th, and lastly season championships at kalamazoo sunday august 23rd!

If you havent been out this season to see us pick one of the above dates and come have some fun with us!

Overall we finally had a solid weekend!

Had an earlier than normal start time for Saturday at plymouth as they had the big street stock race as well. We started at the tail of the heat race and fought hard to finish 4th. Started on the pole of the feature and stayed there for most of the race until a late caution when another car was able to slip by and make a pass on us after the restart and we finished a strong 2nd!

After we finished up with our racing we had to clear the track and pits for all tje big cars to be able to come it. So we went to have lunch then came back to give one of our partners Tristan Crago at Highside Bodies & Fabrication a helping hand for the night. We also were invited to bring the mini-wedges out during the big car autograph session and that was super cool to be a part of! After that we got to go line up 3 wide behind the street stock fast qualifier #88 Andrew DeVreese and do the parade lap for the national anthem! Thanks again to Kevin Sauer for allowing the kids to be involved with the big car program!

Sunday was a struggle to get started after the super long day on Saturday but we made it up to kalmazoo for another good day! After our practice/qualifying run we felt like we had a pretty good car for the day. We ran what we believe was our fastest laps of the season there coming in at 8th overall. Heat race unfortunately the chain came off on us after a little bump so we got it put back on and rolled back out and finished 5th. Feature we started outside front row next to cousin bryan where he was able to get the jump on the start and we slide in behind him. After a few cautions and restarts throughout the race thats how we would finish with cousin bryan picking up his very first Feature win which we are suoer proud of and we finished 2nd right behind him!

Tomorrow we head out for vacation for the week and we will see you all again next sunday back down at plymouth! Have a great week everyone!

Who knows maybe one day we will be good enough Dale Earnhardt Jr. Will give us a call and put us in a driver development program so we can chase our nascar dreams!

We hope everyone had a great Monday to start the week! Just wanted to give a heads up for the weekend plans as it will be a long double header weekend!

Saturday we will be at Plymouth early as the gates will open at 9am with a 10am practice and 11am racing which will be a fast paced show with 1 heat race and 1 feature so we can hurry up and get loaded up and clear the track so the big cars can start coming in.

Once we are done we will be sticking around and watching the big cars and at 6pm we will be participating in the autograph session with the big cars! Im not sure if we have a 100% confirmation but we may possibly also be doing the pace lap during the national anthem as well which would be pretty awesome too!

Then on sunday we will be heading back north to Kalamazoo with gates opening at 10 racing at 1!

We look forward to a long weekend of fun with our family, friends, fans, competitors, and sponsors! We hope to see you all at the track at some point this weekend! We encourage you to stop by and say hi and let us know you came!

Just picked up a couple more tubs of the best hand cleaner towels from our friends at O'Reilly Auto Parts! Our hands will continue to stay clean after any dirty job!

Disclaimer: We were not paid for the advertisement of either of these companies.
However we also would not be against it as a sponsorship type partnership as this young driver prepares to make the move to the next level in his racing career!

Hey all i know once again it has been quite some time since our last update. We have been super busy between working and racing and trying to find some time to just spend quality family time together as well. So here is the newest update for you!

At the start of this season with the brand new Mini-wedge we were forced to build an extra tall halo and move the pedals as far forward as they can absolutely be moved in order for Drayven to be able to race this year with how tall he is.

So after having to do all of that we made the decision that this will be his final year racing mini-wedges and we will be moving him up to a different class in a bigger car even though he technically still has 2 more years of eligibility he is just to big.

After much discussion and thought we decided if the right deal comes along at the right time we would jump into the street stock scene!

So with all that being said and our driver's 13th birthday coming up this Tuesday the 21st we found and was able to make a deal on this hotrod and get it picked up just a couple weeks ago and keep it in hiding until today when we were able to finally give it to him!

At this point we are not sure if this car will hit the track quite yet this year at all but we do know we will continue to finish out the season in the mini wedge at plymouth and kalamazoo!

We also made a deal and picked up a hornet car that we are currently in the process of working to get some parts for in order to get it on track during practice days for drayven to get a little practice on the big track in something before making the leap into the street stock!
