One day I was broke down on the Mass Pike. Exit 6. Heading to Star Speedway with my modified. Several attempts to rescue our doomed voyage by new friend Steve Mendoza had been unsuccessful. So he called his buddy, Bruce Bachta to come help us out.
From then on Bruce was part of
We were the fastest cats in Daytona Beach until the last half-hour practice. The car looks like a bullet and goes like one too!
Still living the dream. That dream just keeps growing and getting better. I'm the luckiest guy I know. I'm so proud to be part of this team.
We had the lead at Daytona International Speedway for about 100 feet. Proud of my team. Thank you to everyone that put me out front with a chance today. Thats all a driver can ask for
Onto Talladega Superspeedway . Heads high. Ready to win.

Superspeedway. We played our cards right and put ourselves in a good spot to have a chance at the end. With four laps to go the electric fuel pump broke just as we were getting ready to shake things up with our Acacia Energy 73.

Quick question for my
@iracing
friends out there. I am trying to run some sim laps at Watkins Glen but the Default Arca car has way more horsepower then the cars I drive.
Is there anyway to make the arca car more realistic to how it drives in real life?
So excited to be back at

. The team is getting the car unloaded and pushed through tech while Andy does some media day pictures with his brand new Whelen Engineering Company, Inc Firesuit made by our friends at Velocita-USA.
Awesome 8th place finish at Bristol Motor Speedway!
We were wrecking loose for the first 125 laps. It was everything I could do just to keep it out of the wall. With a lot of help on the radio and great planning we managed to hang in there and we never gave up.
Don't blink or you'll miss it😱
Take a few laps around the Allentown indoor facility with Andy J as he sets the fast time in qualifying with a blistering 7.564 lap time.

Came up short in the ARCA RACING SERIES race but driver got the job done at the famous infield wheel barrow races.
See you next year Daytona International Speedway . We have you circled on the calander.
Dad has some company on the SMART Modified Tour win list! We have officially been declared the winners from South Boston Speedway!
I want to thank everyone at SMART for handling a difficult situation in a way that was fair to me and my team as well as my competitors. I respect

Awesome so far! The car has good short run speed in race trim. Switching to drafting now. Our spotter is working with Tony Hirschman to get us into a Gibbs draft here shortly. I'll update you as soon as I can. Working short handed without my pr man Billy today.
Not the day we wanted but its the day we got. Flat tire on the first lap trapped us multiple laps down.
We made it into a test day and showed top five speed at times. Most importantly the car is in one piece and we can start to catch up on our Talladega car.
We got a good

Onto the next adventure. We will be seeking partnerships for the pocono race. We are a race by race team and that is the next one on the list. After Saturday night i think its time to keep moving and renew our focus. The car is already built this time around so we can focus on
What a day!!
We went from thinking we weren't even going to race tonight, to staying up until 4AM working on the car. Waking up at 9AM and going back to work on it until it was done.
We got to the Track about an hour before the feature and took the car into victory lane🏁😎
I always knew we would race NASCAR someday....
I had no idea we would be looking this awesome while doing it though! 😎😎😎
Charlotte bound on the gypsy express. Three days late with no time left to waste (we had a few setbacks)
Hey
@ARCA_Racing
teams, We are looking for an Ilmor engine to buy. Something close to or ready for a rebuild would be ideal but would consider anything you might have. Inbox me please.
We had a great first day. The car was hooked up and had some good speed. Sat top 10 at the end of practice from running in a 2 car pack, overall a successful first day. Rinse and repeat for tomorrow!

testing is in the books. We ran a ton of laps and made some good adjustments throughout the day. The ending result does not justify how fast this car went today.
Still another day of testing ahead. So stay tuned in tomorrow for more updates!

We are getting a few hours of sleep. and we will be heading back to the racetrack at 5am
We have arrived at North Wilkesboro Speedway for night number one! We are pitting with our friends and supporters at Hartwig Racing for some pit support since we brought the ARCA RACING SERIES car down instead of a tool box.

It was almost a good test session. We hit p1 on the chart with test driver Andrew Patterson and his luck ran out a couple of laps later when a car lost a tire and spun in front of him.
Racing happens and good luck comes and goes.
Heading back to NC.
It's tough watching the race from the sidelines as we had high hopes for this weekend and a badfast car. We will be get the car fixed up and be back at

The V1 Fiber car has been unloaded and the crew is making a few final touches before hitting the track for practice at 11:40.
If the car is half as fast as it looks, It's going to be a great day😎
Couldn’t of asked for a better weekend. I can’t thank ONERAIL and the entire racing team enough for what we’ve accomplished. We did something amazing. Thank you for all the love and support it truly wouldn’t be possible without all of you.❤️

Late departure as usual. Loading up and then stopping home to feed my hermit crabs. After that we are getting after it en route to the boat shop!
