KJ Motorsports Update #1 “2015 Season Getting Closer”

1/29/15

Well, a lot has been going on since the end of 2014 and I’ll do my best to summarize. I’ll start with the biggest news. Frankie Hall of Hall’s Auto Repair has chosen to join our team and he didn’t just join he stepped it up. He has purchased a toter in which he & Brian Dennewitz have been remodeling the inside and it will be getting a new facelift on the outside as well. He also purchased a 28’ stacker trailer to haul both cars. I was able to purchase a brand new Shaw chassis to replace the one that I destroyed of his last year and he will be racing it on a regular basis. Can’t thank Frankie enough for all he has done for KJ Motorsports and looking forward to fun times this summer!

Next on the list of things for 2015 is sponsorship. All 3 Schilling brothers have stepped up as sponsors this year. The Schillings have always taken me in like family since Greg passed away in 2008 and I’m thankful for their friendship and the fact that they have chosen me to display their name on my car. So as you go thru the sponsor list at the bottom of this update, please find all of our sponsors either on the web or on Facebook and give them a shout and let them know you appreciate their support of racing and KJ Motorsports and try and support them when you need their product.

So with sponsorship, we were able to purchase a brand new Lightning chassis from Donnie and Vickie Adams. We put this car together fairly quick so we could display it in the PRI show in Indianapolis back in Dec. We still have our set up stuff to complete on the car, but it is basically race ready. We will also have our Shaw chassis ready to go, in which we have had a ton of success with. We will be in both cars as the season goes along. I have my Billy Lloyd race engines and Frankie has his Mullins race engines. So between the two of us, we should never miss a race night unless of course I do something stupid again and decide to take the scenic route at Atomic like I did not once, but twice last year. . . .

So with that said, as of now, we plan to open our season at Atomic Speedway on March 20th and then the following weekend we will make the trip down south to Friendship Speedway in Elkin, NC for a $10,000 to win Renegades of Dirt show. Hope to see you all there!

Remember, to make this work, support those that support us!
