I spend only a few days a year here, but it sure feels like my home track!

Another Nu-Way Auto Parts 150 is in the books. Here are my closing thoughts after an exhausting and gratifying week at LancasterMotorplex...I am blessed beyond measure to be able to do what I love alongside people that I love. Grassroots racing is a superior form of racing.

Sometimes, you just need some salty air to clear your head and pelicans to put a smile on our face.

"Like wildflowers; You must allow yourself to grow in all the places people though you never would." E.V.

Did some exploring in my downtime while visiting western NY and stumbled across this scene.

Enjoyed a great weekend of classic racecars with Schultz Engineered Products at Daytona International Speedway for the 10th running of the Historic Sportscar Racing Classic 24 Hours of Daytona.

Each and every day, I enjoy the freedoms that men like my grandfather and my father, women like my cousin, and countless more served to protect. I am grateful to these men and women on Veterans Day and every day. #VeteransDay #HonorOurHeroes
