Jackson Motorplex results:

Cars: 38

We unloaded with speed.. car felt awesome

Heat: 5th -> 7th

Car was great for the first few laps passing a few cars.. but coming out of two I noticed the car didn’t come up off the LF.. we were dragging frame rail around the race track…

We found a bad bar that wasn’t replaced after the axel broke at Rock..

A stupid mistake that essentially cost us our night..

B-Main 1: 6th -> 5th

Taking top 2 we didn’t transfer
-
I firmly believe our night in the sun is coming.. minimizing little mistakes and putting together a full night will lead to success with our team.

It’s coming.

See you tonight at I-90 Speedway
-
Thanks to my crew for the help, I know these guys want a good result and I appreciate their support sticking this out.

Huset's Speedway (7/19) & Rapid Speedway (7/21) Results:

Huset’s:
Heat: 3rd -> 3rd

Feature: 6th -> 12th
We’ve been having some issues with this car, but we were finally able to change over to our new car for Rocky!

Rapid Speedway:
Heat: 2nd -> 1st (DQ)
My suspicions were confirmed when this car both took off better, and had substantially better speed. But we ended up breaking a front axel, shearing off the RF tire. Thank the lord we didn’t flip. We couldn’t make it across the scales, so we were DQ’d

Major thank you to Hunter Hanson and The Heiskells for stepping in to help us out with getting our other front axel in. It was not as ready as we needed it to be for that scenario.

We made it out for the A, but lost brakes in the first few laps. With the track being what it was I decided to pull it in.

Thanks to my crew, and everyone supporting me this season. It has been nuts!

Back at it Friday at Jackson Motorplex, Saturday I-90 Speedway, and Sunday again at Huset’s!

After finding further issues on both cars, we sadly were not able to make it to I-90 Speedway.. which hurts way worse after hearing about bonuses for tonight!

We look forward to having our cars ready to go for tomorrow at Huset's Speedway
-
Thanks to Tyler Benning and Peyton Steva for helping dad and I out in the shop all day today!

On a beautiful Saturday, they could’ve been doing many other things! But decided to spend another 9 hours with us in the shop!

07/11/2026

Rapid Speedway Results:

After 9 hours in the shop today we (hopefully) have our Myers ready to go for tomorrow- and got our Al Parker car out to race for the night tonight at Rock.
-
Cars: 28
Pill: 12
-
Heat: 2nd -> 4th
I did not get a good start and we were surrounded by cars going into 1.. missed on the set up and settled into 4th
-
B-Main: 1st -> 4th
Again I just missed on the set up.. we thought we had a pretty good baseline with this car for Rock, but that got thrown in our faces a bit tonight.
-
A-Main: 20th - 19th (final running car)

I will be honest and say I was physically and mentally exhausted. I didn’t set the car up properly, and it took me a while to get into a grove. The car came to me as the rubber came in.

BUT - I am happy to have turned a few competitive laps tonight.

I look forward to tomorrows race at I-90 Speedway and am just happy to be in the car again!

Thanks to my crew for all the work at the track today: Tyler Benning, Tate Norgaard, Peyton Steva and my dad / car owner John Griep

When it rains it pours I guess…

2 straight weeks of issues that seem to keep flowing!
-
From engine issues to driveline issues to air compressors going bad and four wheelers not starting.
-
Spending every single cent I have to make this work.

Praying for better results tonight. We just have to keep trying!
-
Thanks to everyone who is sticking it out with me.

BIG SHOUTOUT to these two studs for joining our program and being all in!

Without the help of these two, our weeks would look very different!

Excited for another 2 day weekend ahead with the (Jackson Motorplex // Rapid Speedway) and another night at I-90 Speedway!

Hopefully Mother Nature plays nice!
