A few months ago Caleb was bummed out that he couldn't play football because of his foot having RSDS, so Crystal and I introduced him to rowing and at first he thought that it wouldn't be anything he would enjoy. After about a week he started he loved it, at that time I thought to myself he wouldn't be able to row and race cars because they are both time consuming and you need to be focus on just one. I was okay with that because it's our kid right, I mean I'll do anything to make these kids happy, that's what a parent is for, so we told Caleb that he had to make a choice racing or rowing. At that time he chose rowing, probably because racing season was over anyways lol. Well this week he shocked me and said daddy, do you remember I had to make a choice and I said yes. Well then he told me, I want to race again, that's where I belong. I was happy one way but sad the other, we spend a lot of time with his rowing and when you spend that much time on something you, it's a part of your everyday life. Well today it was bitter sweet, because today it was his last day of rowing. So now it's back to racing and more focused than ever this year.

Well the race season is officially over for us this year, but we are already making plans for 2017. One of the plans will be running the Sooner Sport Mod Series, this will be a great series to run for all the sport mods across Oklahoma. Also Caleb will be wheeling his kart again across the state as well. If you are looking to advertise, we are currently looking for 2017 sponsors. Feel free to contact us for info.
This will be my final race season, can't wait to get on the track, thank you Dustin White for this great design and designs that you've made throughout the past 12 years.
