I had a fun week at the 2026 ROAR Carpet Nationals hosted by our very own Maximus RC Raceway in Seabrook NH.

First I want to give a big shoutout to the Maximus Crew. They are some of the most passionate and hard working people out there and they are the reason that this event was so successful. Thanks to the crew, lead by John Cravotta himself, I heard nothing but positive feedback and comments regarding the facility, the track, and the event itself.

I also want to give a huge shoutout to my mom, Sheila Sedler. She not only got the bathrooms clean and stocked with toiletries and supplies before the event, but also kept them clean throughout the event which is no easy feat as we all know…

I had some solid runs and a DNF in qualifying which placed me in the B main. In the B main, I had a solid run with one or two small mistakes, placing me 7th.

Thanks again to everyone who made this week super fun and special. Thanks to Tyler, Tom, and Matt for the help in the pits. Thanks to my sponsors!

I had a great time as usual at the 2026 Psycho Nitro Blast last week.

I want to first give a huge thanks to the Bishops for all of their hospitality and support. I want to also thank both the Tekno and JConcepts team for all of the tire and general support.

My racing had its ups and downs this weekend. It started with the classic 24 hour practice which is always helpful for getting the cars dialed in.

There were times in qualifying where I showed a lot of speed but my potential was capped by making some mistakes in crucial areas of the track. I landed myself in the B main for both classes

In the Pro Nitro Buggy B main, I got off to a great start, working my way up to 2nd. Shortly after that, I landed pretty funky, causing my shock eyelet to break. In the Pro E buggy B main, I had a really good car but made some mistakes that allowed the leaders to break away.

Overall this race is always a great time and a great experience! Huge thanks to the Racetime crew for the event and awesome track. Thanks to my sponsors!

DNC 2026

On the flight back from The Dirt Nitro Challenge

The Dirt crew always puts on great events with spectacular track layouts. It felt great to check another one of their events off the list.

First I want to thank the Belcastro’s for all of their help and hospitality. I also want to thank the Tekno team for all of their help and support all week.

Practice and seeding were productive and I made a lot of progress on the cars. Qualifying came with its ups and downs but the cars were solid.

I ended up qualifying 4th and finishing 5th in the Pro E Buggy C main. The car was good and I drove pretty well, but just made one or two small mistakes that unfortunately kept me out of a bump spot.

I qualified 5th and finished 6th in the Pro Nitro Buggy C main. Like the E buggy, the Nitro buggy felt good and I had good pace. I was in the battle for the bump for the first few minutes of the race but lost touch with the leaders after making a couple of mistakes. Huge thanks to Sean Vandalen for being super fast on the fuel gun.

Overall I had a great time and a lot was learned. The Tekno buggies got better and better throughout the weekend with the help of the team. The JConcepts Dirt Bites were dailed all week.

The Hobbywing electronics performed very well in E buggy all week and the Protek Samuri engine and 4 shoe clutch provided tons of power and reliability in the nitro car.

Thanks to my sponsors !
