Blum Racing

6/8 karts started the feature. I started 5th, made my way up to 4th after lap 1 and stayed that way the rest of feature. Kart felt great even though the track was quite sandy and loose. Thanks for the crew that was with me tonight to make the kart handle. Michael Blum , Cody Blum , and Conner Schwartz. With them working on our car it made a great racing surface none the less.
The rest of our week is busy too
Friday we are going to Delaware Speedway for night 1 of the Master of Faster.
Saturday we will be right back at Delaware Speedway for the Night 2 of the Master of Faster.
And of course thanks to our amazing sponsors who allow us to stay this busy with racing:

Well when you get ballsy out of 4 things will happen. Heat 1 was up to 2nd, got too high out of 4 caught the tires on the front stretch and rolled it. Luckily myself and the kart are fine and it made for some laughs at the trailer. We will have it ready for the rest of the night and we can only do better now.

Race Day!!! Team decided to head up to Exit 7 Motorsports Park for their Memorial Day Race. Track looks good, Kart is ready to go. Hot Laps I believe start at 12:30. If your in the area, Stop out and See the Kart and watch some Races. Should be a pretty good day!

Race Day!!! Stop out to Delaware Speedway and watch some fun, exciting, entertaining races during the Mothers Day Madness! Hot lap at 5!

It was a rough one tonight sadly. 1st heat we went out and made it most of the way through the heat before the chain popped off and wrapped around the clutch causing the engine to lose power. This lead to me and the crew changing the chain and hoping it would work… well it didn’t work because when we went to line up for the 2nd heat the kart wouldn’t start. We took it back to the trailer where we made the decision to put on a backup motor for the feature. With this process I truly can’t thank my crew enough. We ended up getting the backup motor on and we were hoping to just get laps in and finish the feature. Well after half of lap 1 there was a multi kart crash(luckily we weren’t involved) where I was able to manage my way through without getting caught up in it. After this wreck we proceeded to be under caution for about 8 minutes. In that 8 minutes the chain again decided it was our time to get off the track when on the restart finally we got going and after about 3 seconds into that restart a kart from behind spun us into the infield. In the process of getting into the infield the chain came off again so we got a total of about one lap green before our night was officially ended. In all, we realized that all we can do is improve from here and it is best to get the bad nights out early. Next weekend we will be back out at Delaware and hopefully we will be able to finish the feature. Thank you so much Craig Liddle, Joe Greve, Michael Blum. If it wasn’t for the amazing crew we have with us we probably would’ve been done before the feature started. So thank you again for all you guys do and I love being able to have you guys helping out!

Race day here at the the big D (Delaware) We hope to come out of here with a good result and figure out what to Improve on in the future.
With that we would also like to thank all of our amazing sponsors who help us to keep this whole thing rolling smoothly:

Well you win some you lose some and tonight was a losing night but at least it was a fun one. We started the feature in 16th out of 19 entries. After about 10 laps we were up to what I Wanan say was around 10th or 11th and stayed there for about 7 laps then disaster started when there was a caution. This led to us dropping to about 13th or 14th and staying there until the chain popped off the sprocket. Needless to say it was a fun day racing the dirt at the downs at Hawkeye downs. With that our 2025 season is over. The 2025 race season had its highs and lows but in all it was worth it at the end! The year included a 1st place points finish at Delaware Speedway which is amazing and I couldn’t have thanked anyone enough for supporting through it. The season also included my first wins and also some pretty frustrating finishes but anyways with that being said I would like to thank everyone who helps out whether it’s help in the pits or just by coming out to watch. Thank you Cody, Dad, Carson Ambrosy, Joe, and Craig. Also I would like to thank Ben Oberfoell for the help with my line racing and helping me figure out in seat adjusting. Also thank you to Twenty 5 Design for the amazing wrap. Last but definitely not least our sponsors who help us to allow us to get the Kart on the track:
