TEKBY Racing

It’s Bristol baby! Thunder Valley is amazing. We came for the day, during our roadtrip, and visited some friends who are racing in the Eastern Conference Finals. Hopefully someday soon the kids can race here. What an amazing track.

Welcome everyone!
We started this page as a way for our family and friends to follow our junior drag racing and other family adventures. Prior to last week we only had 100+ followers. Since last Friday and the posting of Ellie’s trip zip (perfect reaction time start) video we have picked up over 7k followers and that video now has over 2M views. We are absolutely blown away! We never meant to go viral but here we are. So, we are glad you’re here and will be following along. We are fairly new to the world of Junior Dragsters. It’s Trevor’s second season and Ellie’s first. We didn’t come from a racing family nor do we have fancy gear. We are regular folk that happened upon the sport and are enjoying the challenge of it. We are not Influencers or marketing specialists. Just a regular family trying to teach our kids mechanics, math, sportsmanship, and other useful life skills that being active in this sport affords us. If that all sounds good to you, we invite you to follow along. Just know that values, integrity, and kindness are important to us. If our slice of the internet isn’t for you, no hard feelings. We invite you to find the content you resonate. If you own or represent a business that is looking to sponsor or partner with a race team please reach out. As you can imagine this is an expensive endeavor.
Thanks for reading and have a great day!

We had an amazing weekend at Redding Motor Sports Park. On Saturday Trevor was the #1 qualifier and went rounds in the 8.90 class. He made it to the finals and runnered up! We are so proud of how he did. He went out second round on Sunday. Ellie had her trip zip (perfect reaction time on the tree) on Friday and went two round Saturday. Sunday she went out first round to a really tough racer. She is improving every single race and did amazing her first season especially with starting out in the fastest indexed class. We have a break from racing until the end of summer. Big thanks to the Oliveria’s and the Pires families for all your help and support this season.

We had a wonderful weekend at Top Gun Drag Strip in Fallon, Nevada. Ellie made it to the second round both days. Cars ran great and kids did decent on the tree. We didn’t come close to winning but we had a blast trying. Also, Ellie had the opportunity to lead worship on Sunday’s chapel with Racers for Christ.
