Race Season will be here before we know it

Race Season is coming up very fast. The first race of the year is scheduled on April 27th at Claremont Speedway with the NEMA midget. Our final schedule is coming together and will be released soon. We are looking at a variety of different modified races and NEMA races. As always, the amount of races depends on marketing partnership support and dates. 

Dad has put a lot of work in while I have been traveling for work and racing. I have one more trip planned to Minnesota for the Midwest Motorsports Expo, presented by Wehrs machine, where my focus shifts back to the cars. He has been able to get the modified almost race-ready. We have a few things to button up, and have a month and half to go through to find any binds, work on setup, and make sure everything is 100% ready. 

The NEMA Midget moved into the shop a week ago. We have most of the body panels off and are going through all the heims and shocks to make sure everything is ready to go. We are planning a cleaning of the oil system, a maintenance piece on the engine, and then to completely go through the setup of the car. They made a few rule changes this year, which should help our car with a little more speed and make the whole field closer. At the end of the year we made a lot of gains on the car, and I started to get a handle of it. The midgets are a very different driving style. Dad found a lot of setup pieces that will help us progress much earlier in the next year. 

All of this is not possible without our great partners. I cannot thank NHOU Protective Coatings, Miranda Contracting, Shibles Mattress, A-1 Automotive, Circle Performance, and the newest sponsor to the A-1 Horn family-owned car Monadnock Ford enough. As always, we are always looking for more. With at least two cars this year we have packages for everyone that will help grow your business!

We had very strong runs in the TQ midget to open the year. I am excited to take that and move it to the outdoor season. Stay tuned for the schedule. It is almost race season!
