Late post about last weekend for The Giveback at Ashway Speedway. We went and ran Clone 330 and Clone 350. We didn’t do too hot in qualifying but came back during the race. Starting 7th going to 4th place in clone 330. And staying where we were at in Clone 350 starting 11th finished 11th. Overall a great weekend with friends and family for the last race of this year! #16

Tomorrow we are trying our luck at Ashway Speedway! So excited to get back in the seat at this track. It’s been a good 4 years since my last race there when I first started the sport! Big thanks to M2W Promotions for putting on all these great shows! Can’t see what they do next year! #16

Went to Godspeed this past weekend for our last points race of the 2025 season. Going into the night p4 in the Clone 350 division and coming out in p2 at the end.

I want to thank all my friends and family for the continuous support throughout this season.

Also a big shout out to Testerman's Graphics for the killer stickers on our trailer! Be sure to hit him up!

But this season isn’t quite done yet! As of right now we have a couple things planned with some other races coming up! Stay tuned!! #16

Went to Godspeed Raceway this past weekend for our fifth points race. Qualified great in 3rd and got up to first leading most of the race and got loose in turn on and two and ended up spinning out. Luckily we had enough speed with three laps to go to get back up to 5th place out of 11 karts. However we have some body work to do!

Came to Godspeed Raceway today to test out our luck! Calling for rain later this evening but hoping it holds off to get this show done quick and easy! #16
