It's been along winter for us but she's home and we are getting our 2025 season started. Jake and Dave left last Wednesday and made a turn and burn to the amazing folks at TNT Race Cars to pick cherry up. The boys got home late Thursday night. Got her unloaded Friday evening and Saturday Jake, Dave Tristin Rae Potter and Damion Wilmoth went to work putting her together. In just under 24 hours she's pretty much a rolling chassis again with half the deck back in her.
With this being said we will be making our final preparation on our wrap and will be going around looking for marketing partners for the upcoming season. If you are interested in gaining national attention for your business we would love to talk and have your business on our car.

After racing a brand new car at 5 different tracks in 3 different states starting the season racing 2 nights a week then slowing down to 1 night a week after Jacob's illness here's how we finished our 2024 season.
We ran a total of 19 races this season. Unfortunately 2 of them were dnfs.
We had a total of
17 top 10 finishes.
13 top 5s
2 fast qualifiers
1 heat race win
And the highlight of the season. WE FINALLY FOUND VICTORY LANE IN A LATE MODEL!!!!!!!
Unfortunately as everyone knows our season was cut short by the wreck and Jake definitely feels like this season ended on unfinished business. But in true Pops Motorsports fashion they already have everything tore apart and are starting on planning and getting things ready for the 2025 season.
We want to give a massive thank you to Bill and Jeffery at Southern Racing Enterprise and Tony and Jenson Ford at TNT Race Cars for taking a huge gamble on us this season. We are forever thankful for everything you guys have done for us this season.
Jake would like to give a huge thank you too his unsung heros behind the scene.
The crew chief Pops
Team mom Michelle Kolwyck-Lively
Girlfriend Tristin Rae Potter
Factory stock team mate/ crew guy Damion Wilmoth
Step sister Kiersten Lively
Team camara man/crew guy Ron Lively
We also want to thank 2 guys that saved our bacon big time a few times this year with parts and help. Shaun WiltjerHunt at 1 dream chassis and Rusty Pleasant at Ridge Towing. Without these amazing people we could not do what we do.

This post hurts to make. 😔
Last night the team traveled to shadyhill speedway for the final points night.
The night started off good. Jake was 3rd quick in practice. Draw started us 4th in the heat race.
In the heat race is where the ugliness happened. On lap one of the race the leader turned up into the front stretch wall. Through the dust Jake didn't see him wrecked until the last second. There was extremely hard contact which totaled both cars.
The team is unloading cherry today and will get the damage parts tore off and access the extent of the chassis damage.
Unfortunately that is going to be the end of our season. We would like to give a massive thank you to TNT Race Cars for building an extremely safe car. For the impact Jake took last night to only get the wind knocked out of him and be alittle sore from the belts is a blessing.
Thank you to all our amazing sponsors that have rode with us this season.

Race day recap.
The team traveled to shadyhill speedway last night for autograph night.
Jake decided to set out practice and started last in the heat race due to bad pill draw.
Jake was super happy with the car in the heat but unfortunately 2 laps into the heat race the rear float stuck on the car flooding the motor.
We started 8th in the feature. Dodged a few wrecks and picked off a few cars and moved up to 4th. After a late race red flag Jake said the right rear felt like it just never fired. We still managed to bring the car home 4th and only suffered some drivers door damage.
Thanks to all our amazing sponsors and even our sponsor Renegade Truck and Trailer Repair and The Lain Group LLC for coming to the track and hanging out with us last night.

Weekend recap....
After being out of the car for about a month Jake finally climbed back behind the wheel of Cherry Saturday night at Shadyhill speedway.
In practice it looked like Jake never missed a beat as he topped the leader board.
Unfortunately do to pill draw Jake had to start last in the heat race but would drive up through the field and end up finishing 3rd.
In the feature Jake started 3rd. The top 3 checked out from the field and ran a good green to checkered race were Jake would end up finishing 3rd.
We can't thank Jensen Ford and the amazing folks at TNT Race Cars enough for all the amazing tech and setup support they have provided all season long.
We also want to give a huge thank you to all of our sponsors that have been so supportive and understanding these last few weeks and the whole season.
