KCRP CHAMP AND A PERFECT SEASON CLEAN SWEEP!
/October 15, 2016 - After a clean sweep of the season, winning 11/11, Buddy and his crew were awarded their NASCAR Whelen All-American Late Model Series CHAMPIONSHIP crown Saturday night at Kern County Raceway Park!
The competition was stout with cars from Irwindale entering the race weekend. However, Buddy prevailed and earned another fast qualifier award with a 18.818, and the win!
With a bullseye on his back, he started the main in the P8 position. A slow start for the outside row, Buddy found himself dropping back positions. With patients and focus he gathered himself and began his passing magic. He saw that the leader had checked out, and with no yellows, Buddy had to drive a hard, mistake free race.
On lap 23 of 40 he made his way around the leader and never looked back. He crossed the finish line in P1 and the celebration began in the Raymond's Trophy Victory Lane with crew, family, fans, sponsors.
"My stellar crew worked their butts off all year and this is for them and my mom and dad who have sacrificed so much who allow me to live my dream!"
