Haven't posted anything in a long while so updating everyone following the first race of the year for the Jester Motorsports team. It was a rough off-season and didn't get to work on the car after dropping a valve at last race of 2023 at STATE CAPITOL RACEWAY till 2 weeks before the ADRL Montgomery race. My mom was fighting a bone marrow illness with lots of Dr./Hospital visits and transfusions. She went to be with the Lord March 7th and is missed very much. Cassandra and I made the decision to try and make the race so I dived in with both feet working 18-20 hours a day to get the Jester back in one piece. The first day of ADRL Drag Wars was challenging as we struggled to find the tune-up, and over come the shift controller box failing leaving us with high gear only and tire shake that broke the driveshaft. So much Thanks and Love for our Jester Crew (John Sandridge, Steven David, Jamie Faulk, my son Zach and wonderful wife Cassandra Hurt Felps) that worked tirelessly on the car as my son and I drove back to Louisiana to meet my daughter ( Nikki Lee ) to pickup another driveshaft arriving back at the track 3:37am Saturday morning. All the hard work paid off as the Jester team ran a personal best 3.98 @ 193 mph in 2nd round of competition! Even so the Jester was put out by .08sec margin of victory to the faster 3.81 of T. King. So much thanks also goes out to Darrell Escoyne of Escoyne Fabrication for building a great race car. Thanks goes out to Hank Stubbs'and John Sullivan's teams for helping and rooting the still new and learning Jester Motorsports team on.

Big shout-out to John Sullivan, Big John, Will Sullivan, Glenn Miller and everyone in the Sullivan Racing camp! "The Jester" team was short on crew this weekend and they unselfishly helped us out even though they had their hands full working on their car. One of the best parts of Drag Racing - the Racing Family!
