KYLE BUSCH CLASSIC + NASCAR WEEKEND RECAP 🏁🤯
I don’t even know where to start with this weekend. Racing at The Bullring during NASCAR weekend, putting the 5T on the pole for the first time, getting to be part of the NASCAR Fan Zone, meeting Christopher Bell… this was easily one of the best weekends of my life.
Thursday I qualified P4 and raced a solid, clean race to finish P5.
Then Friday started with something I’ll never forget P1 in qualifying. My first time ever qualifying on the pole, and to do it at the Kyle Busch Classic made it that much more special. 🥹🏁
The race definitely made me work for it. I was running solid until I spun in turns 1 and 2 and had to come from the back. I worked my way all the way back up to P6. The final few laps had several cautions, and the race ultimately ended with the checkered without us getting a white-flag lap. We definitely felt like there were still a couple positions out there for us, but that’s racing and most importantly, the 5T came home in one piece. 😂
A HUGE part of this weekend was having Kris Johnson on our team. Having him on the radio spotting for me, helping with the car, seeing what I’m doing well and also recognizing where I can improve was awesome. I already can’t wait to work with him again.
Then somehow the weekend just kept getting better.
Saturday and Sunday we got to take the 5T over to the NASCAR Fan Zone and display the car during NASCAR weekend. Being able to represent Bandolero racing and be a small part of a NASCAR weekend was something I’ll never forget. Huge thank you to Brad and Kevin with U.S. Legend Cars for giving me that opportunity. It was truly an honor. 💙🧡
And then… Christopher Bell. 🤯
I got to meet him and have him sign my diecast of his car. I brought one of my Tucker Webster Racing shirts with me, and instead of just taking it, he had ME sign it for HIM and he kept it. That is a moment I’m going to remember for a very long time.
So Christopher… if that 5T shirt ever makes an appearance, you better believe I’ll lose my mind. 😂🏁
From the racing, to my first pole, to the people who helped us, to everything NASCAR weekend brought with it… this was by far one of the best weekends I’ve ever had.
Now I’m already ready to get back behind the wheel of my 5T. 🏁💙🧡
And as always, THANK YOU to every sponsor and partner behind the 5T. Your support helps make weekends and opportunities like this possible, and I’m incredibly grateful to have every one of you along for the ride. We truly couldn’t do this without you. 🏁💙🧡
