Not the Biggest. Not the Richest. The Most Disciplined.
A two-car midget racing program built on integrity, humility, discipline, and family. We race the long game — from Port City Raceway to the Lucas Oil Chili Bowl Nationals.
Every decision we make — from driver selection to sponsor alignment — runs through these four pillars.
We do what we say. We race clean. We treat competitors, officials, and fans with respect. Our word is our contract.
We are not the biggest team. We are not the richest. We show up early, work harder than anyone, and let the results speak.
Preparation is not optional. Every bolt torqued, every setup decision documented, every lap reviewed. Discipline is our competitive advantage.
Our drivers come from different backgrounds but share the same commitment to excellence.
37 years old, Northern California. 14-year NASCAR pit crew veteran at Hendrick Motorsports — the elite of the elite. Transitioned from over-the-wall crew to behind the wheel. 2026 Chili Bowl: 2nd in heat. Now he's back for the main.
Aggressive, fearless, and built for dirt. John Rodriguez brings raw talent and an unshakable work ethic to the Hauling Ass Racing program. A rising force in short track racing with the instincts of a veteran and the hunger of a rookie chasing his first crown.
Three races. Three proving grounds. Each event builds toward January's main stage.
Shakedown event. First live track time for both cars under race conditions. Validate setup, build crew chemistry, establish baseline data.
Full dress rehearsal. Race pace under lights, final setup calibration, last chance to refine strategy before the big show.
The Super Bowl of midget racing. 350+ entries, week-long competition, one champion. This is what we've built for.
Racing is a team sport. Every person in this program earns their place.
Race-ready apparel and gear. Built for the pit lane and beyond.
Named in honor of a racing legacy, the Augie Skinner Project is our commitment to making motorsport accessible to everyone. We are developing affordable, open-source adaptive hand controls that allow drivers with physical disabilities to compete on equal footing.
Racing should not be gated by ability. If you have the will, we will find the way.
Developing hand controls at a fraction of current market cost.
Designs shared freely so any team can build and adapt.
Removing barriers so talent is the only qualifier.
