Driver Information

My father Keith Jennings started racing at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas when I was just a young pup. Being around racecars all my life has grown into my passion. I started racing in 2017, driving a USRA Stock Car fulfilling my dream of racing alongside my father. I finished the season with the Rookie of the year award while placing 10th in points. In 2018 I took over my fathers NRT built USRA stock car and again stole a top 10 in points by placing 9th. In 2019 I took the year off to save money. And in 2020 I began racing Emods while continuing into 2021. Had some near wins but never ironed it out. Now I'm 2022 I am running my first year in a USRA Bmod.
The chassis is a 2021 Asylum by KRT and it's the fastest car I've driven in my life with a Creason Racing Engines powerplant. I owe so many thanks to Jason Keim (KRT) for all the help dialing this car in to what works best for me. Dennie Belknap at OverRated Bodies for his countless beautiful bodies he's done for me and for the veteran advice he's given me. Above all I have to thank my Dad again for allowing me to do what I love. I couldn't ever afford this expensive love affair if it wasn't for him. And thank you for not only being my father but my best friend as well. Let's go racing!!
