Shadow Racing Farewell...Godspeed

Don't look back...always forward to the next journey. 

This is a difficult blog to write considering it's the last blog entry from Shadow Racing Team. After much consideration...we have decided that it's time for us to retire from full time racing. This has been a difficult decision as it's been a dream that has been chased since Justin was 9 years old. We know that this will come as a shock to many people but God has called us to a different road and we are extremely excited to pursue new dreams and passions.

What a journey! From humble beginnings of championship go-kart racing with the race kart strapped to the top of the wagon. Running a limited funded 360 team that made it to almost every race in the ASCS Rocky Mountain division and many National Sprint Races across the country along with local racing with the 305s. And of coarse running with the World of Outlaws! We feel that we have reached so many amazing goals, some that many people only dream about.

The opportunities that racing has given to us have been more amazing than we have ever dreamed. Racing is something that cannot be explained, only experienced. We have been able to travel the country, explore different race tracks, and meet awesome people which created some great friendships. We have enjoyed family involvement and sponsors believing in us. We will miss hanging with everyone at the tracks, that late nights of racing together but mostly the racing community that cannot be found anywhere else. The memories are endless and so very treasured.

Remember to ENJOY racing! Don't let the competition make you jaded, don't let promoters try to make you choose  sides. Don't fight...work together to make racing united, rewarding and fun for promoters, track owners, racers and fans. Don't forget the passion which racing stirs within your hearts and those of the people sitting in the stands. Fling some mud, make some friends and hammer down!

We will miss racing and everyone so very much. Please keep in touch.

As this garage door closes...many others are opening...Godspeed
