Get out the broom! Swept the Week 12 League weekend at Charlotte! Captured the Coca-Cola 600, then the Queen City 150.
We were facing the inside wall with 12 to go. 😳 Hung on to it and rallied back to the lead.

P2 in the Lone Star State! Should have put the bumper to @CSnyder315, but another fun race to the finish with this guy. Congrats on win #5!
Next week we head to Charlotte, one of my favorite tracks.

We survived Dega! P5 after running up front most of the race. Good teamwork from the #17, #24, and #20.
Congrats to Ryan Wayne on picking up his first win!

P1 at the Rock! Played the fuel mileage long game and won it by that much. 🤏
Fun clean race tonight with only two yellows for incident. On to Dega next week!

Back into the top 5 this week. Had great long run pace, but runs longer than 5 laps are apparently impossible for some drivers to run. Good run for my teammate @BBear1490 before getting dumped on the last lap.
Rockingham up next! 🪨

Well... Podium streak is over, but not from a lack of speed. Rolled the dice and grabbed track position on scuffed tires. Kept the lead through multiple yellows only to get wrecked from the lead with 10 to go. 🥴
Regroup at Bristol.

Fast car at Martinsville. Had good top 3 speed, but got behind on pit strategy. Big wreck broke out on the white flag existing turn 4, and managed to come out P3.
Podium streak continues! On to Darlington.

By no means did I have a 2nd place car last night, but we capitalized on others making mistakes to come home P2 at Homestead.
On to one of my favorite tracks next week. Martinsville 📎

FAST car in Vegas, just came up a little short. I need to get better at pitting under green. Great run for both cars tonight.

The @juicyspydr gang was so in tune during last nights @NAORiRacing. Really proud of how strong we were as a team. Disappointed we couldn't finish it out with a 🏁, but big congrats to @CommandoGriff3 on the big win. 🪽

A thrilling finish in COTA! We both crossed the line sputtering on fuel after running nose to tail the entire race. Honestly, one of the most fun road races I've ever run!
Congrats to @CSnyder315 on going 3 for 3 this season!

Up and down race for our #14 Liquid Death Mustang. Missed the wrecks and finished 2nd. Let the season truly begin next week at COTA.
Shoutout to @CSnyder315 on going back-to-back! Plate track merchant... 😂

Rough ending for our #14 Liquid Death Ford Mustang and PapaBear Racing in general. Won the stage, and led the most laps, only for Daytona to rear its ugly head.
On to Atlanta next week!
Griff -- P12
@BBear1490 -- P17 (DNF)
Had a good top 5 going at Phoenix in @NAOnlineRacing before getting run over by Grimace twice in the final ten laps. Story of my season. 🙄
Congrats @Hunter_Pietzsch on a dominant performanc!

Solid debut in the @BlazerSimRacing truck series for my #33 @TurtleWax Ford F150. Started 14th and worked our way into a top 5 finish. Definitely the wildest finish I've been apart of. Catch the full race replay on @JCTVRacing. Onto USA International!
