Bob Gardner Racing

From one racing family to another……
We’d like to ask all our dirt racing supporters to help support a great foundation created by another dirt racing family. Please like, share and support Fast laps, Open Hearts Foundation, Inc when possible. We look forward to seeing you all at a race track here soon!

Home | Fast Laps, Open Hearts Fast Laps, Open Hearts Foundation exists to create opportunity, inclusion, and hope for children with developmental disabilities by turning community passion into meaningful support.

This week had everything — the highs, the frustrations, and a whole lot of hard racing. Did we enjoy ourselves? Absolutely. Are we leaving wanting more? No doubt about it.

But that’s racing. You take the hits, you learn from them, and you come back hungrier.

A huge thank you to Cody and Emma Sommers for putting on an event that racers dream about being part of. And to everyone who stopped by, grabbed merch, talked racing, or just showed support — we felt it.

The fire for 2026 is already lit.

Last night didn’t go quite how we wanted. Got turned toward the fence, nowhere for the other guy to go, and it just wasn’t our night.

Today’s a new day. We made it into a qualifier and we’re rolling out last. They’re only taking the top 2 out of it, The driver’s gonna have to put it all on the line and wheel the damn thing.
