After one of the most chaotic 12-hour stretches of our season so far, we made it to the Douglas County Dirt Track—exhausted, determined, and ready to race. Running with a stacked field of NARC 410 Sprint Cars, it was a night full of highs, lows, and everything in between. We fought back from an early-week crash and poured everything into making the show. Qualified 6th quick, had speed, and then… a controversial heat race call by officials changed our whole night. Penalized for what we believe was a clean start, we had to dig even deeper to claw our way forward. From starting just outside the top 10, we brought the 18T home 5th after 30 tough laps, battling brake issues and a slick surface that kept evolving. The team never gave up, and I’m proud of how we rallied. ▶ In this video: • Behind the scenes of our chaotic prep • Track analysis & car setup insights • Our take on the controversial heat race penalty • Onboard action from qualifying to the feature • Honest talk about officiating & West Coast series politics We’re not here to point fingers—just calling it like we see it. Racing’s tough, but we’re tougher. Huge thanks to our team, partners, and all of you who support the 18T program. We’re only just getting started this season.

Welcome to my hometown dirt track — the Southern Oregon Speedway — a place that means the world to me. From my very first laps in an Outlaw Kart to my first Sprint Car wins, this track has been the heart of my racing journey. And tonight was a big one: $5,000 to win, the only 410 show here all year, and a chance to go head-to-head with some of the best during NARC Speedweek. We showed early speed, felt confident going into the feature, and then… just two laps in, disaster struck. A hard crash ended our night early and left the 18T badly damaged. In this video, I take you through the highs and lows of returning home — from qualifying and heat race battles with James McFadden, to the feature crash that turned our night upside down. I open up about the emotions, the effort, and the behind-the-scenes work it takes to keep racing after a setback like this. Thank you all for the support — it means the world.

Tonight marked my final race in the Tarlton Motorsports 21 car for the first half of 2025—and what a ride it’s been. From unexpected opportunities to racing coast to coast, teaming up with Drew Warner, Nate, and the whole Tarlton crew has been a true blessing. We capped off this incredible stretch at the David Tarter Memorial in Chico, CA, with the King of the West NARC 410 Sprint Cars. In this video, I take you through a tough night of qualifying, heat racing, and a wild 35-lap feature. The surface kept us guessing all night—slick, greasy, and tricky to figure out. While we started deep in the field and even got lapped, we kept digging and actually passed nearly a dozen cars by the end. This wasn’t the night we were hoping for, but it’s part of the journey. Thank you to everyone who’s supported us through the early part of 2025. We’ll be back in the 21 car later this year, but now we turn our focus to the NARC Speedweek and Dirt Cup in the 18T. 💥 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more behind-the-scenes action, race recaps, and in-car coverage all summer long. #SprintCar #TannerHolmes #DavidTarterMemorial #TarltonMotorsports #SilverDollarSpeedway #NARC410 #DirtTrackRacing #Speedweek #DirtCup
