Daytona under the lights is always an event you do not want to miss in the Jumpboost Racing League. Kicking off our 2024-2025 season we saw returning JRL Veterans, new faces and some serious contenders trying to stake their claim early on in the season as the one to beat!

Harley Barletta, our race winner, locks himself into the playoffs with his first win of the season after leading 14 of 53 laps and taking home a victory over Teejay Handley, who finished just 0.077 seconds behind Barletta and Josh Previte, who finished 0.147 seconds behind the winner.

This was a race to remember and possibly forget for the #12 Toyota of Patrick Ganczewski who spent a majority of his race up front, leading the second most laps in the race at 11. Ganczewski bet it all on fuel mileage and came up short falling back on the last lap of the race and finishing one lap down in 11th place.

The pole sitter for the season opener Garrett Hummel tied the race winner for most laps led at 14 and had an impressive run all night. Late race cautions did shuffle back the fastest truck in qualifying to an 8th place finish. With Atlanta racing like a 1.5 mile super speedway, the #19 Chevy Silverado will be one to watch.
