BIG FIRST WIN FOR LATE MODEL ROOKIE BLAKE LOTHIAN IN THE NASCAR ADVANCE AUTO PARTS WEEKLY SERIES

“It feels like a dream “ Words from Blake after winning the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series at Hickory Motor Speedway this past weekend. Blake was a man on a mission as he made a daring move in turn 4, taking it 3-wide and edging out his competitors for the lead. Track announcers called it “tell you what he is on a mission for his first win”, and he was. As if that was not enough, Blake also won a pole award beating out all other competitors to take the fastest qualifying time of the day. In the first twin 40 of the day Blake exchanged the lead a few times, but came in P2, just missing the win due to damage to the car’s toe after some competitive bumping and banging with another driver. And all of this in his rookie late model season with this being only his 4th race event. It sure did not take this rookie very long to make it to victory lane! Well done Blake. One of Blake’s main sponsors, Venture Wipes owner Thomas Fromm was at the track to join in the victory lane celebrations. A big thank you to the crew at Mike Darne Racing for giving Blake a rocket! as well as Blake’s sponsors Venture Wipes, Texas Lawbook, POTUS ABC and Smithlawncarenc

OFF WEEK THINGS

Off Week Things
Whether it's a driving week or not, I always want to be tuned in to the track. This weekend I got to go back to my roots and do something I absolutely love! Hang out and work as a flag man at New Hampshire Motor Speedway for the NHKA karting series (New Hampshire Karting Association) I will be forever grateful to the NHKA and it's director Mike Camarra for starting me off in my racing career, as well as F1(X1) Boston. In a time when many small tracks are disappearing, it's so important to have organizations and places like this for young kids ages 5 and up to get their start in what for me has become a lifelong passion.

Two Top Tens at Hickory Motor Speedway

Two Top Tens at Hickory Motor Speedway this weekend as I continue to learn and improve my race skill. Although I tested there several times, this was my first time racing at the historic track. Just so blessed to be running there and to be able to check all the boxes, including making a few passes, staying on the lead lap and keeping up with the veterans in the pair of Twin 40 races. A big thank you to my sponsors, Texas Law Book, #Venture Wipes, POTUS ABC Kids and Smith Lawncare and to team owner Mike Darne whose hands-on coaching pushes me to be the best I can be. Would not be here without them. Also a big thank you to all the folks and fans who wished me a Happy Birthday today. If you would like to jump on board the #59 with me visit www.blakelothianracing.com for sponsor opportunities. #branding #racing #racelife #venturewipes
