McClain Motorsports recently announced a partnership with CT Darnell Construction. Now, we would like to welcome Nucor Steel to the team for our 2026-2027 racing season!

You may have already noticed CT Darnell Construction on our cars this year, and with Nucor Steel joining our team, we’re moving to the next level!

Both CT Darnell and Nucor have built a platform of bulletproof leadership, and McClain Motorsports is excited to tie those qualities into the motorsports arena, bringing these companies to a new audience, and show enthusiasts, both fans and fellow racers alike, what we can do together.

Thanks to this expanded partnership, McClain Motorsports has been able to create opportunities with the necessary parts companies, to bring our race team to the next level.

That level will also allow our team to expand our reach, with a stronger presence at events, giving McClain Motorsports a chance to showcase our cars, and our talents.

Look for us at select events in the fall / winter this year, with a full schedule of both 2026 and 2027 event appearances to come.

We look forward to showcasing what the combined resources of CT Darnell Construction, Nucor Steel, and McClain Motorsports can do on the track!

We’ll have more details in the coming weeks on our team, the drivers and cars, and what makes the difference at McClain Motorsports. See you at the races!

Great morning to have Eddie Maloney here doing cage certs! 3 - 8.50 re-cert’s, 1 - new 8.50 cert, and 1 new 25.3 cert from our friends at Moore Race Chassis. Of course Kate McClain was caught wearing her MRC shirt next to their chassis.

We would like to welcome CT Darnell to our racing program as an official sponsor. CT Darnell are experts and highly regarded in construction and building material, and they love drag racing!

Thank you endlessly for your continued support and we proudly will display their logos on all of our vehicles for the entire race team. We’re currently building to make a bulletproof upcoming season with three competitive cars this fall and another four to be completed in 6-12 months- six for our near-term cars and another six for the big boy.

Thank you, CT Darnell for your continued support, we are proud to have you on the team!

Big things happening is an understatement!

Most of you know, I’ve been trying to simplify things and step back from full time at my shop for a while now. I need less stress and more family time in my life. Doing this, we can still provide the same services and work our magic while not having the stress of stopping several times a day to deal with phone calls, texts and admin duties.

McClain Motorsports will be the racing hub for our cars so they aren’t in the way of customer work and will continue running under the name and reputation that we’ve already established in the community.

To less stress and more fun!! 🍻 Let’s Go!

Here’s some builds and projects we’ve finished up on lately.

Haven’t posted anything in a while as it’s been crazy and I’m trying to get caught up on much overdue work.

We’re not closed. We’re not out of business. We’re far from it. We’ve dialed a lot back to manage both my full time job (and the copious amounts of OT available) and trying to finish up a lot of the current and far overdue builds we have been needing to finish up.

In a nut shell, the shop got overwhelming. I love building cars but I also have a problem with not wanting to disappoint people. When someone tells me their dream, I hate to say “no”. And that’s what I’ve learned is my weak spot. I ended up with way too many full scale builds that set me back way too far. Because full scale builds don’t pay the bills. And when you have to do the easy, quick jobs to pay the bills, the big jobs get pushed back. No more. I’ve learned to tell people “No”. Hell I’ve declined more work in 3 months than I have in prolly the last year. But you know what….these long projects are getting done and out of here.

When I’m all caught up at the shop with all outstanding builds done, this shop will still be here. Still turning out work. Still making dreams come true. But on a more personal level. No more deadlines. And I mean that. I will do builds, correctly, at my pace or they can go elsewhere. Because McClain Motorsports isn’t “half ass”. I enjoy building things the right way and I don’t have the schedule to be fast.

I thank each and every one of my customers. I strive to make sure dreams are fulfilled, but I’m putting my family first. I’m not missing anymore holidays or family events to finish a car or meet a deadline. The cars will be there or they won’t. My family is what’s important and I damn sure won’t live forever. The right kind of customers will see and respect this. The ones that don’t….well, that’s the kind we send elsewhere anyways.

To the future.
