Feel like we are starting to get the car dialed in, wish we could have done it sooner in the season.

Check out a few of our last races, the social media team got black flagged for their lack of being prepared, but we forgive them:

The final checker flew on Rob and Kenzies Rookie season in Legends as well as at Beaver Dam Raceway for good.

Beaver Dam is where Kenzie started racing. The first time she ever went Rob and her went solo for a practice night. They didn’t know you couldn’t drive in the pits with the kart, we didn’t have a lift, so Rob ended up cutting a tow strap up and pulling her back and forth to the line. It’s far, the pits aren’t necessarily smooth, it was a disaster.

Kenzie got to the line, saw the pond, and said o hell no, she was convinced she was going to drive into it. Rob talked her off the ledge and sent her out there. We were new to karting, he sent her out with karts that looked like hers (ps they almost all look the same) and she was out there with Jr3 and she was a box stock. HUGE speed difference. She came in, in tears, said she sucked, and was ready to retire. Thanks to a pep talk from Faith Zellmer Schultz, Kenzie vowed to keep trying, and that night decided she was going to eventually race Legends at Beaver Dam.

Tears going into Beaver Dam and tears leaving. Thank you Beaver Damn for being our home away from home all those years, we met so many amazing people along the way. Many who are still close friends to this day.

Rob finished his Rookie Season 5th in MLDS Points
3 Heat Race Wins
2 Bmain wins
Hes currently sitting 7th in National Points at just the minimum amount of races in. Unfortunately we will not be running Nationals (unless someone wants to sponsor the tire bill lol)

I really think if he could have found what he did towards the end of the season things would be different.

Kenzie finished her rookie season 16th in MLDS points. I have a love/hate relationship with throw out nights, without it she would have finished 13th even with missing a night.

She didn’t cross the line first this year but her growth was huge. We are most proud of how she tried to learn to handle the car vs trying to go fast. From our opinion she was a car others felt comfortable passing knowing where she was going to be, and that can’t be said for a lot of cars that have been racing for years.

We will be BACK next season better than ever!!

Thanks to all our sponsors, past, present, and future. We could not do this without your support.

You know you’re in an absolute stacked heat race when you turn the fastest lap and still dont transfer.

It’s Raceday #2 on the weekend!

We are going to do like all the cool kids do and this into a Feature win tonight!

Rob won his heat race, Beaver Dam Raceway has been a thorn in his side for years so he needed this.

Kenzie shaved off 2.5 seconds off her best lap from last years fall special which is huge. She was pretty patient in the heat race, maybe a little too much, maybe just the right amount, but it paid off on the last turn and she set up the pass for 7th.

The caution filled B-Main went decent. She avoided a couple big wrecks, was up to 4th a few times, but ended up 5th. Only the top two transferes so she was done.

Unfortunately the feature was rained out.

Watching all these former go kart kids put on a show tonight is so much fun to watch. Someone please buy this track, the future is proving it wants to keep racing!!!

It's RACE DAY at Beaver Dam Raceway, final weekend of racing for our team. Probably the last opportunity for the #99 to get that Beaver Dam feature win he has been chasing. Checked off almost every other track in our area, Beaver Dam is still on the list.

Who can guess what we partnered with Diane Mech Photography on for our JR Fan give-a-way this weekend? It is pretty cool, make sure to stop by and get one for yourself!
