2026 Super 4 Season Recap – Race #6 Edition

The 2026 season has been a wild ride of ups, downs, and everything in between, and Race #6 was no exception! This race was the grand finale of the season, so I had one more chance to grab that elusive checkered flag.

After the total bummer of Race #5, I decided to hit the big reset button and start fresh with the car setup. Shoutout to Chuck for spending a week texting me through a setup overhaul. The mission? Make this thing turn like a dream!

Practice & Qualifying • And boom! The reset worked like magic. The car felt like it was on rails—smooth, predictable, and fast as hell. I rolled out for qualifying and nailed a decent lap, snagging Fast Time for the night. Talk about a confidence boost just when I needed it most!

Heat Race… or Not • We lined up to start the heat race, all pumped to see how the car would handle in traffic. But as I rolled out of the pits, disaster struck—the rear end decided it was done for the season before we even hit the green flag. Another gut punch in a season full of them. 😩

But hey, sometimes racing is about the little wins: the car was faster than ever, and I know we’ve got the speed to hang with the fast guys. We just need a little luck on our side. Even with the setback, I held on to finish 2nd in the season points standings, which is a pretty epic way to wrap up this year despite all the bad luck.

Thanks to the Crew & Sponsors • A massive shoutout to Jennifer, Ava, and Gianna—without you, I wouldn’t even be racing. Huge thanks to my pit crew and spotter for most of the season, Nick Durfey. You did a great job! And a big thank you to Mike, Scott, and Joe Beaudoin for everything you do. Also, Joe Bowers and Chuck LaHorgue, you guys are the best—always just a call or text away with advice, coaching, and the occasional pep talk. 🙌

Never a good thing to be on the trailer while the rest of the club is lined up for the Main event. Hopefully some better luck next year. 😔

Race #5 Recap • Missed Opportunity

After the strong performance in Race #4, we unloaded looking to build on that momentum. I made a few minor setup changes during the layoff, hoping to improve the handling even more.

Practice 1 & 2 • Mostly a shakedown. I didn’t push the car too hard, but enough to gather tire data and see how the changes were affecting it. The car felt a little better, so we made a few more adjustments for Practice 2 and improved again.

Qualifying • Made another small adjustment and got four clean laps, getting progressively faster each time. I caught a couple slower cars and decided to pull in rather than risk the car, settling for P2.

Heat Race • Started outside Row 3 and worked my way through the field to pick up the Heat Race win.

Main Event • Starting outside Row 2, the Heat Race win put me in a good position. After a couple laps, I was able to take the lead with the hard-charging #24 right behind me.

Around halfway through the 30-lap feature, we caught lap traffic. As a general rule, a lapped car should either move up and allow the leaders to pass or simply hold their line and let the leaders race around them. Unfortunately, neither happened.

I went to make the pass on the outside when the lapped car changed lanes, nearly wrecking both of us and allowing the #24 to cleanly pass us both and take the lead. Then, when I backed off to avoid further contact and made the pass on the inside, he came down again and made contact with my right front.

I was able to clear him and go after the #24. I got back to him and nearly had a pass on the inside, but it would have resulted in a decent amount of contact and that’s not how I want to win a race.

A couple more attempts, but I simply ran out of laps.

Another P2 finish.

Proud of the speed and the effort from the team, but this one definitely feels like a missed opportunity. We had a car capable of winning, led the race, and came up just short.

We’ll do it all again, Championship Night, September 26th!

As always, a huge thank you to my pit crew and spotter Nick Durfey, along with Mike, Scott, and Joe Beaudoin for everything they do. And thanks to Joe Bowers and Chuck LaHorgue for always being just a call or text away with advice, coaching, and the occasional pep talk.

Can’t do it without my sponsors.
