Made my first trip to Beaver Creek Speedway this weekend for the Maxxamillion race! Qualified top 4 in every class including the pole in the Pro class! Come race time got wrecked lap 1 in both lite and medium, but had fastest lap of race after getting back going in medium. Drove to 2nd in heavy running down the leader just run out of laps. In the money we had it dialed in winning by a comfortable margin! Happy to finish the weekend with a bang, used the adrenaline to make the long ride home that night! Thanks to Riley for making the trip and helping all day, Adam, Henslee, & Daniel for all the help! Dusty had us all hooked up all day, hopefully can have the same speed this weekend at Talladega for the Maxx Daddy!

Had an up & down weekend at GKK Saturday & Cross Anchor on Sunday! Struggled most of the day at GKK to find race winning speed, but did manage a 2nd in Pro heavy. Never found that little bit we were missing but was a top 3-4 kart most of the day. Rebounded pretty well Sunday sweeping all 3 clone classes, and picked up two seconds in champ after flipping in pro and getting passed on the last lap in the warmup. Thanks to everyone who helped this weekend, making gains every weekend! Also special thanks to Brice, Dillon, and Dylan D as well for helping in the pits this weekend!

Heck of a weekend at the Chili Bowl this past weekend! After blowing up leading, getting black flagged after winning, and getting wrecked on white, we were finally able to check the Chili Bowl Open Modified 5000$ race off the bucket list! We were also able to drive from the rear to win the 2000$ Pro Limited race as well despite going to the tail! Had a chance in both warmup races as well, wrecking out on the last lap of both races going for the win! In the last race of night we drove from 18th to 3rd after not having anything good to qualify after the rain!

All in all was a great day winning 7500$! For our first time on our new Caheely open we were stoked to get the win, and things are only looking up as we dial it in even more! Thanks to everyone in this picture and even those who aren’t pictured for everything they do to contribute to this team! Excited to see what lies ahead 🔥💪

For the first time in a long time, we made the trip to Liberty Raceway Park this past weekend. After struggling a lot in the past there, we were not sure what to expect. However the day started off strong picking up 3 poles in qualifying! Come feature time, we ran top 5 in all 6 classes and picked up 2 wins including Pro Champ! Pretty pleased with how the day went considering our past there, and excited to go back knowing what we do now! Hopefully weather clears up for the weekend! Make sure to shoot me a message to allow me to help you get on best kart on market

Made the trip to Williamston NC for the indoor race this past weekend! Started the weekend off great winning by a straightaway in Clone Medium on Friday night! Tried something in heavy and missed the race, but was able to drive from 6th to win the Bobby Waltrip Memorial! Saturday we were quick once again qualifying top 7 in all four classes. In medium, I drove from 6th to 3rd with the best kart on long run. Clone heavy was the same story driving from 7th to 3rd and ran the leaders down a straightaway at end. Rolling off 2nd in Pro heavy we had a rocket and wheel hopped the leader taking the lead and wrecked out, tough luck cost us the win there. In the big race we were strong but had some untimely cautions and ended up 3rd. Overall a good weekend finishing top 3 in every class except the one we wrecked taking lead and picking up 2 wins!

Another long Daytona Kart week has come and gone! Day one this year was pushed back due to rain so we ran about 8 classes both days. We struggled out the gate our first date in qualifying but when we found it we had a rocket ship! We were able to drive from 16th to win the big 5000$ Vega race to start the weekend off! That night we drove from 10th to win the 2000$ pro stock heavy race as well! In All Pro we had a piece to win, but after laps were cut short we made it to 2nd after starting 16th but ran out of time! Pro Limited we also made a drive from 16th to 2nd to finish out Day 1 strong!

Day 2 we started out better by qualifying top 10 in every one of our classes, but lost the track early on in the races. However we finally found it again later on & had an absolute hotrod in the Ginger Owens race. After driving from 9th to 4th in 4 laps, we had a mechanical failure under yellow to end our race. In the 50 lapper I got put in wall coming through the field, but managed to come back to 5th at the end. In pro champ I was running 2nd when the race got called with 7 to go. In the other 2 champs we had a shot at end, but ended up with 2 thirds.

Overall we had a great weekend once again in Daytona! We managed to win around 9000$ and 2 of the big races with a chance in several others! Happy to finish off 2023 with a bang, and excited to see what 2024 holds!

Made our first trip to Alma, GA for the first annual Charles Peacock Memorial yesterday! To say it went well is an understatement! Had some tough luck in qualifying but found some speed at the end and set pole in Pro Limited and the 4000$ Pro heavy! Come race time we were able to win Medium warmup from 5th, and then drive from dead last to win the 2000$ stock appearing race after being light at the scales in qualifying! Started in the back in pro medium and heavy warmup but drove to 3rd in both features. We were able to hold on in Pro Limited and finish 1-2 out of the Hi-Tech stables after switching the lead a couple times with Colin Mize! In the 50 lapper we led most of the first half, but after falling to 2nd I was able to ride till the end where we would retake the lead and the 4000$ win! Great day at one of the best race tracks I’ve been to picking up 4 wins and 2 thirds with over 7500$!

Gotta give a shoutout to Josh for coming along and helping crew chief all day! The entire Mize & Robinson family for all their help throughout the day as we had to keep changing the stock appearing and limited back and forth. Tommy Avery & Lorrin Roberts for the mule stock appearing, thing is straight nasty! Finally gotta thank Dusty Burdette & JT for dialing the skins in all weekend and giving me one heck of a piece in the features!

Finally settled in after a long weekend at the Rumble in Paradise! Had a pretty good weekend all things considered picking up 2 wins and multiple top 5s across both days. In the Wayne Poole had the best kart on long run and was able to drive back to 2nd closing in on leader after getting shuffled outside top 10 early. Same story in the rumble, got wrecked lap 1 but drove from 33rd back to 4th in 40 laps with best kart at end! Considering how much the track changed over both days and running two types of tires, we were pretty consistent all weekend and picked up a win on both reapers and maxxis! Proud of our team, and thankful for everyone that helped play a role!

Made the trip to 35th annual World 100 this past weekend! To say the weekend was a rollercoaster would be an understatement. Started off the weekend by qualifying 6th out of 70+ entries, but swung for the fences and missed it come feature time and ended up p7. On Saturday, qualifying went about as poorly as it could have. We managed to start 4th in Stock Appearing and 7th in limited, but only 10th in heavy, 23rd in medium, and 62nd in the World 100. Luckily we were able to barely make the show through a consolation race where I drove from 17th to 5th in only 10 laps! Taking that momentum into stock appearing we were able to drive to the lead and grab the 2000$ win by a healthy margin! Lorrin Roberts & Tommy Avery had us a mule and I can’t thank them enough! For the 100, our goal was to just make it to halfway without getting lapped due to starting 29th. Not only did we not get lapped, but were able to drive to 11th without a caution. For the final 50 we were able to drive all the way to 2nd running down the leader, just didn’t quite get there! Considering we didn’t think we were going to make it, bringing home a close 2nd was something we were proud of! Struggled after the 100 race, but did finish 4th in limited despite missing the tires! One of my favorite races of year, and glad we were able to bounce back from a rough start & have some success!
