“I am really excited to make my first start in a Pro Late with Rackley W.A.R at New Smyrna Speedway. Speedweek is a great opportunity for me to gain a lot of seat time and experience in just over a week of racing. I appreciate Curtis Sutton and Willie Allen giving me this opportunity to drive the No. 25 Rackley W.A.R. car alongside my teammate Dawson Sutton. It is going to be a pretty awesome week.”

“I would like to thank Ron Hornaday, Jr. and Candice Hornaday from Hornaday Development, Joey Coulter from Drive Refine, Joe Ryan and Billy Workman, Jr. from Joe Ryan Race Cars and all of my sponsors, PayCafe, ABio Clinical Research Partners, Bilstein, GBS Corp, Atomic Wash and BrakeSafe Technologies. We’re also thankful to have Rackley Roofing Company and W.A.R. Shocks on board with us for this event. My continued growth as a race car driver would not be possible without the continued support of all these people and sponsors.”

Rackley W.A.R. team co-owner and mentor to the team’s development program, Willie Allen, said that Carson Brown’s achievements thus far in his young career certainly garnered his attention when the opportunity to make the New Smyrna run presented itself.

“We are really excited to have Carson join us for the New Smyrna World Series. What he has accomplished in his Legends career is incredible. He has a ton of focus and I think he definitely has a bright future. He was a teammate with Dawson Sutton at Joe Ryan Race Cars over the last year and into this year, and the two should work really well together. There’s a lot of excitement in the shop to have Carson on board in the No. 25 car.”
