John Jerich Racing

Lernerville may have cancelled but it is still race day!! We are pulling into Williams Grove Speedway to compete against the PA Posse!

First time I have ever been to the Grove, so let’s see what we can do!

Double dose of racing this weekend, starting tonight!

It is race day at Lernerville Speedway! Hope to keep our momentum going and stay consistent.

Tomorrow we plan on racing at Clinton County Speedway for the Phil Walter Classic!

Get out to support your local racetracks!

Been a long couple months since I posted on this page, sorry about that! We've ran 14 races the past 2 months and have really been figuring things out the past few weeks!

We had my first ever heat race win at Sharon Speedway last week, along with an 11th place finish with FAST at Tri City. Followed that up this weekend with a 9th at Lernerville and a 7th at Tri City. Feels really good to start being more competitive each time we hit the track!

I'll do my best to keep this page updated moving forward. See you all this weekend at the races!

Heard there were Monster Trucks at Lernerville Speedway last week so I decided to give the big air competition a go. Sad to learn there was no gold medal after Friday.

We have the spare car ready to rip at Tri City Raceway Park for the final night of Western PA Speedweek! Great day for racing and the rain missed the track! Hoping we can end the week on a high!

Thursday PPMS Recap:

First 410 top 5!
39 cars
Drew pill 47 of 50
Qual: P1 in group and 3rd fastest overall
Heat: P4 -> P3
Drew the pole for the feature
Feature: P1 -> P5

Interesting night with track conditions overall, but we set ourselves up for success in qualifying and kept moving forward through the heat!

Probably should have held on for 3rd, but missed the line with 2 to go and Shaffer & Blaney got by me. Very proud of our effort in such a stout field in just our 8th 410 start!

We hope to keep our momentum going tonight at Lernerville Speedway for night 3 of Western PA Speedweek!

Thanks to everyone who makes this happen!

Raceday at Lernerville Speedway! Looking to build some momentum tonight before we get rolling on Wednesday for Western PA Speedweek!

Fourth in the C main last night at Sharon with the Outlaws; made improvements and raced some good cars towards the end of the night.

We are currently unloaded and ready to rip here at Tri City Raceway Park!

Well, with all this rain it’s a good thing we went to Lincoln last week to get some racing in!

We fought a tight racecar all night but made improvements throughout the night and managed to pass a couple cars in the B before backing it in the wall and turning the RR radius rod into a boomerang. Great experience running a new track with the World of Outlaws in only our fourth 410 race.

This weekend we have Sharon Speedway and Tri City Raceway Park on tap!

IT’S RACEDAY!!!

We aren’t going to improve by sitting on the couch, so we are on our way to Lincoln Speedway to race with the World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series!

Weekend plans (weather permitting):
Friday - Lernerville Speedway
Saturday - Michaels Mercer Raceway w/FAST on Dirt
Sunday - Tri City Raceway Park w/FAST on Dirt

4/26 Lernerville Recap:

Heat: P2 -> P8
B Main: P5 -> P2
Feature: P20 -> P13

Eventually I’ll figure out how to make it through a heat race effectively, but hey that’s part of the learning process! Hopped the cushion twice in the heat, so we went backwards from that.

Recovered nicely to make the feature and rolled the bottom really well in the A to move up 7 spots as the hard charger.

Overall we are making progress each time on track!

Back at it again tonight at Lernerville Speedway!

Last week was a great first week out and we have something to build on. Rookie driver dropped anchor in the heat, finished 2nd in the B, then finished 16th in the feature. Hopefully only up from here!

Way too delayed recap from Saturday the 16th at Pittsburgh's Pennsylvania Motor Speedway.

We fought some first race of the year motor gremlins for the majority of the day, but qualified 7th in our group out of 10. Finished 8th in the heat, while just being happy not to tear up any equipment. Dust was at insanely unsafe levels.

Started 5th in the B and ended up 6th, missing the transfer by 2 spots. Overall, an okay start to the year and first time ever in a 410. Nothing to write home about, but no torn up equipment either.

Looking forward to our next race this weekend! Stay tuned on that!

A huge thank you to my guys Holden, Elliott, and Bill that make the wheels go round, and all of our partners on the car!

Hi all! I am looking to bring on some crew and/or a crew chief for next year. Absolutely no experience is necessary, but obviously a huge plus if do have sprint car familiarity. Reliability is key above all else.

Will be focused on running Friday nights at Lernerville in 2024 with other races as schedules allow.

Team is based out of Worthington, PA. Both at track and/or shop help would be appreciated.

Send me a message here on Facebook or text me at 724-919-2328 if interested or for more details.

Thank you in advance!

With all that in the last post being said, today is raceday for us at Sharon Speedway!

Was looking like we weren’t going to be able to make Mercer tomorrow, so we decided to go run with the 410’s tonight at Sharon. Excited to get to another new track, hopefully transfer into the A, and get some much needed seat time!

Thanks as always to the sponsors and partners that keep the wheels turning!

Alright, I’ve been delinquent with updates the past few weeks, so here’s some catch up. Nothing too crazy over that span, nothing spectacular but nothing terrible.

June 10th: 9th place @ Mercer. Started from the pole and activated my parachute. Dropped like a rock.

June 17th: 8th place at Mercer. Started from last after a DNF in the heat. Car was a rocket ship!

July 10th: 11th at Latrobe. Pulled the last pill possible, 6th to 4th in the heat, started 12th in the feature and then played follow the leader.

July 18th: 20th at Lernerville. 31 cars; stripped a torsion arm in hot laps, got it fixed. Very racy heat, ended up 6th with a bent RF wheel after being squeezed in the wall. Transferred from the B, started 23rd, got up to 16th at one point, then fell back to 20th by the end. Very frustrating night.

RACEDAY at Michaels Mercer Raceway!!!!

Hot laps get underway at 6:30pm. Come on out for a great night of racing with the Allegheny Sprint Tour!

I will have shirts and hoodies for sale at the trailer, so swing by and grab yourself one!

Weekend recap:

Sooooo much progress made this weekend!
Friday @ Lernerville Speedway: Heat: P3 -> P4 Feature: P11 -> P12
Saturday @ Latrobe Speedway Stock Car Dirt Track: Heat: P4 -> P4 Feature: P6 -> P4

I started 3rd in the heat at lernerville on Friday and managed to lead my first ever laps in it before doing a 360 and blending back in to finish 4th. Missed the redraw so started 11th on a super slick track and brought the car home in one piece in 12th out of 23 cars. Was happy to get some more experience running on a track that slick and very happy with how we adjusted the car as the night went.

Saturday at Latrobe I started 4th and finished 4th in the heat with a car that was way too loose. Made some adjustments for the feature and was able to pass 2 really good cars after starting 6th to get up to 4th!

Very very happy with the progress that we made all weekend both in the seat and spinning the wrenches! Can’t wait to get back in the seat in 2 weeks time at Michaels Mercer Raceway on June 10th!
