🏁 8/25/26 Tuesday Race Recap! 🏁

Man… Carter just can’t seem to catch a break! 😩 But one thing is for sure, this kid does NOT quit.

🔥 Qualified 2nd out of 23
🔥 Started 4th in his heat and finished 1st!

Because of last week’s winner invert, Carter earned the pole for the A Main and had a FAST kart underneath him. We knew he had a great shot at getting that second Tuesday night win!

Unfortunately, for the second week in a row, the same kart got into him in turns 1 & 2 on lap ONE and sent him to the back of the field. 😭 Absolutely no fault of Carter’s, and understandably, he was frustrated.

But then he did what Carter does…

He got up on that wheel and DROVE THE HECK OUT OF IT! 💪🔥

From the back of the field ➡️ all the way to SECOND PLACE! 🥈

Would we have loved to see what he could’ve done starting from the pole with a clean race? Absolutely. But watching him shake off the frustration, put his head down, and race his way back through the field made us incredibly proud.

He had a fast kart. He drove a heck of a race. And we know that next Tuesday win is coming! 🏁🏆

Now we turn our focus to Saturday and get ready to do it all over again! ❤️🖤

Race recap coming soon!

🏁 Race Recap 8/18/26 🏁

With McKenna tied up with softball commitments, Carter was flying the Team Lyon Racing flag solo Tuesday night! And after a night of unfortunate events and some pretty epic comebacks, I think he may have officially earned himself a new nickname… THE COMEBACK KID!

Carter came out FAST. He laid down the 2nd fastest time in qualifying and went on to run the fastest lap in both his heat AND the A Main. There was absolutely no question about it, our boy was SCOOTIN’! 💨🏁

Unfortunately, that dreaded first-lap curse struck again in the A Main. After starting 5th, trouble on lap one sent him all the way to the back of the field.

But Carter wasn’t done!

He put his head down and went to work, picking them off one by one. With just 4 laps remaining, he had battled his way all the way back up to 4th, where he would finish the night!

From the back ➡️ to 4th place with the fastest lap of the race… we’ll take that comeback any day! 👏🏻

And because Carter is Carter, he’s already watched the races back, dissected just about every lap, figured out what he could have done differently, and is ready to get back after it Saturday! 🏁

We also had Papaw Lawing Phillip Lawing in attendance, which made the night extra special. ❤️ Carter may not have gotten to take Papaw to Victory Lane this time, but having him at the track means so much to all of us. His advice, encouragement, and knowledge mean the world to the kids, and we’re always grateful when he gets to be there cheering them on.

The Comeback Kid will be back at it Saturday! 😎🏁

Huge congratulations to our friend Aliya Snyder Racing for winning the Box Stock division!!

A few weeks ago while we were in Atlanta for a Braves game, we wandered into Baseballism… and we’re so glad we did! ❤️⚾

As soon as McKenna spotted a DAL3 sticker, she had to have it. That led to a conversation with Brad (who deserves Employee of the Year, if you ask us! 🏆).

Brad took the time to hear all about McKenna’s racing journey, her love for Dale Earnhardt Sr., and why the #3 means so much to her. He was genuinely interested, incredibly kind, and went above and beyond by surprising both of our kids with a shirt.

It’s not every day you meet someone who leaves such a lasting impression just by being kind. Experiences like that are what make a business stand out, and because of Brad, our family is officially Baseballism fans for life!

If you’re ever at The Battery in Atlanta, do yourself a favor and stop by:
📍 Baseballism Atlanta
900 Battery Ave SE #1015
Atlanta, GA 30339

This isn’t an ad or a paid partnership—we just wanted to give a shoutout to someone who made our day and a store we’ll definitely be visiting again. Thanks again, Brad! You turned a quick shopping stop into a memory our family won’t forget. ❤️⚾

🏁 Tuesday Race Recap | 7.28.26 🏁

The rain may have dampened the night, but it definitely didn’t cancel the fun! 🌧️🏁 We were so thankful the worst of the storms stayed away, and the delay gave us a little extra time to catch up with our race family. ❤️

Because of the weather, the schedule was shortened, so we went straight from qualifying to the A Mains—no heats!

Qualifying Results:
🏎️ Carter qualified 7th out of 20
🏎️ McKenna qualified 15th out of 19

The changing track conditions kept us on our toes. It had a lot more bite but was also much bumpier, so dialing in the right air pressure for both karts was definitely a challenge.

Both kids made the A Mains, and those races kept everyone on the edge of their seats! There were cautions, wrecks, and plenty of excitement from start to finish.

🏁 Carter drove an awesome race and brought home a 2nd-place finish in Beginner Box! 🥈
🏁 McKenna battled through a tough Jr. Wing field and finished 15th.

We headed to Waffle House to celebrate Carters 2nd place and our friend Aliya Snyder Aliya Snyder Racing Box stock win on Kids nigh last week!

We are so proud of both of these kids. Every time they hit the track, they gain more confidence, make smarter decisions, and continue to grow as racers. Watching their progress is the best part of this journey!

Now it’s time for a well-earned two-week break before we’re back at it. We’ll see everyone back at Millbridge on Tuesday, August 18th! 💪🏁❤️

Today we said goodbye to Corine’s Cafe. It has been a family staple for over 20 years now. Those wonderful ladies have watched Brad and I date, get married and have all three kids. Many Saturday morning breakfasts with Grandpa Lawing, Nana and Papaw have made lasting memories we will always cherish! Thank you for the years of love, laughter and coffee!

Carter walked out with a some nascar and Corine’s memorabilia for his room!

We are in mourning as this has been like a death in the family!

It’s race day at Millbridge Speedway! Everyone do your anti-rain dance and pray the millbridge bubble holds 🤘🏻🏁
