Was an amazingly easy going, awesome experience working with Slick Race Graphics to create the design on the 21W wing sprint car. Thank you to Veterans for the Win for facilitating the collab.

The Blown Away Orlando, Simply Fast Racing Development , Veterans for the Win, JC Customs CNC , will be heading over to Hittn' Skins to get the wrap installed. Can’t wait to see the final product.

🏁 Race Weekend Recap – Marion County Speedway 🏁

Saturday we headed to Marion County Speedway for the last race before the summer break at the Bullring. We decided to make a complete 180° setup change and try something different—and let me tell you, it worked! The 21W felt incredible in hot laps. The car was balanced, comfortable, and had speed right from the start.

Heat Race:
Unfortunately, our night took an early hit. Going into turn one, things got three-wide, the leader got spun, and I ended up getting collected in the chaos. The damage was extensive, bending every front-end radius rod and even the front axle.

Back in the pits, we got to work. We replaced the radius rods and did some pit-side geometry calculations to compensate for the bent axle and get the car back on track. Huge thank you to my brother, battle buddy, and great friend Josh,fill in crew chief Jody for all the help, and to crew chief Dean for the virtual guidance that helped get us pointed in the right direction.

Feature:
Starting from the back, we put our heads down and charged forward. At one point we worked our way up to 4th place, but as the track took rubber in turns 1 and 2, we struggled to maintain momentum and ultimately fell back to finish 8th.

While the result wasn’t exactly what we were hoping for, the speed and balance we found with this new setup has us excited for what’s ahead.

Thank you to everyone who supports, helps, and believes in this team. We couldn’t do it without you.

Today, as we observe Memorial Day 2026, I want to remember all of my brothers and sisters who gave the ultimate sacrifice while serving this country.

Their courage, selflessness, and dedication to protecting our freedom will never be forgotten. We honor the fallen, remember their families, and carry their legacy with us every day.

Working on getting this car done and the livery includes 3 of my brothers that made the ultimate sacrifice on our 2012-13 Afghanistan deployment that will ride on the top wing.

🏁 RACE WEEKEND RECAP – 21W 🏁

📍 Marion County Speedway

This weekend we rolled into Marion County Speedway and had an absolute blast. Got some solid seat time and finally got to work through the setup changes we’ve been building toward.

Hot Laps:
21W was decent right out of the box. Balance was a little off, but nothing we couldn’t fix as a team.

Heat Race:
Finally pulled a good pill and started on the pole of Heat 1. Early laps felt strong, but I pushed it a little too hard, got tight, and ran up the track. Made a good run down the front stretch but got caught up in a racing incident and spun — sent us to the back.
Regrouped, restarted, and picked off a few spots.

Feature:
Started P11 — and this is where it came alive.
Car felt great, hooked up, and we made a hard charge up to P4. With one to go, a red flag came out for a car that flipped out of the park.

Ended up scored P5 (should’ve been P4), but it is what it is — we’re not chasing points right now. The focus is getting better every time we hit the track, and we’re doing exactly that.

Had some great racing and fun battles with Moss

Big shoutout to the people behind this program:

The 21W is starting to feel competitive, and we’re just getting warmed up.

Also — congrats to Tyler Landis Racing on the win in the Carl Lebo 101, Criste Construction machine. Proud of you, Bluey!!
