Sears Family Racing

At Bremerton Raceway 7/16 & 7/17/2022 - We finally got some racing to report. Between the rain outs and us putting on the Northwest Independence Shootout it seems like it has been forever since we last raced.

The first time slip is from Ron's 6th round (semi's) on Saturday and the second is the second round on Sunday where he gave the stripe back. All we can say is that's racing!

Josh has been working 12 hour days but got some time off to come play. On Saturday in the third round his car couldn't run the number. (He found a couple air bleeds a little clogged). On Sunday he just flat got beat in a good race in the first round.

Jeremy had a bad light (for him) in the second round on Saturday and lost. On Sunday though he took no prisoners in a 7 round race and took the win!

We cannot thank our sponsors enough for hanging with us in a season that has not let us make many passes to represent them. Again a big thanks to Yukon Gear & Axle, Puget Sound Petroleum, Westbay/NAPA Auto Parts, Truck Town Ltd.

And as always a really big thanks to our crew chief NormaJean Sears who works her tail off to make sure we have everything and are ready each and every round.

We are headed to Woodburn Dragstrip in Woodburn Oregon for their annual Night of Fire event this coming weekend (7/22 - 7/24).

At Bremerton Raceway 5/21-5/22/2022 - We finally got to make more than one pass in a weekend! The weather and track was outstanding and Ron made the most of it on Saturday putting together a string of double 0 lights to take the win in a seven round Super Pro race! On Sunday he kept the string of double 0 lights going including a perfect light in the second time run. Unfortunately he missed it in the second round and a little slip at the starting line cost him.
Josh ran in Pro on Saturday bowing out in the third round and on Sunday he double entered Pro and Super Pro. He lost first round in Pro, but went six rounds in Super Pro and a red light in the semis ended his day.
Jeremy had it going good on Saturday making it to the fourth round before a breakout run cost him. On Sunday he lost a close race in the first round but bought back in and made a strong run to the semis before ending his weekend. We were really hoping Josh and Jeremy would meet in the finals since they were on opposite sides of the ladder and make it an all Sears Family Racing weekend.

Thanks again to our awesome Crew Chief NormaJean and our great sponsors Puget Sound Petroleum, Yukon Gear & Axle, Truck Town Ltd., and Westbay NAPA .

I know it has been awhile since we have posted our results and I will explain why in more detail when I have time but for now to catch up on this "season".....

Most of you have seen that Jeremy and Ron are both driving new cars with Ron buying Jeremy's old dragster and the big guy getting a new one. We have not had many chances to get seat time in them but so far so good.

The last three points races at our home track, Bremerton Raceway have been won by a Sears!!

Josh started us out with a Wally win at the National Open on Father's Day and this past weekend Jeremy won on Saturday. While not wanting to be the odd man out, Ron had to beat both of them (Josh 1st rd, Jeremy in the semis) to notch his first win in a dragster. Pretty exciting to say the least.

A big thanks goes out to our awesome Crew Chief NormaJean as with three cars all running in Super Pro AND going rounds she amazingly keeps us all ready to go each and every round.

We also want to thank those that have stuck with us, our great sponsors Renegade Race Fuels & Lubricants, Truck Town Ltd., Yukon Gear & Axle, Westbay/NAPA Auto Parts

We are headed down to Woodburn Dragstrip later this week for their Night of Fire event. We have not missed this event since it started and is always a good time.
