ARCA FLAT ROCK ANNOUNCEMENT

MAY 1 2024  |  2024 ARCA East Dutch Boy 150 Announcement  |  Matt Kemp Racing

Things are coming full-circle for on May 18th, where we will make our second ARCA Menards Series East start with Fast Track Racing, this time in familiar territory at Flat Rock Speedway. You'll find us in the #12 machine with primary support from Green Shield Deck Builders. Entering this event, we've won in our previous 5 consecutive appearances at the level pebble, a win streak spanning back to 2021. Even with this in mind, a top-10 run would be a win at this level.

Flat Rock has been a really great place for me over the years, and I’ve always wanted to compete at this level – in fact, the reason I began seriously pursuing ARCA opportunities was because of this race. Flat Rock has been one of my favorite tracks, if not my favorite track while racing regionally with the MCR Dwarf cars. It’s been a great place for me since my first visit in 2013 when I was racing mini cup cars. I’ve had this event circled since it was announced nearly two years ago. But even one year ago, I wasn’t sure if this was a possibility for me.

5-Consecutive Flat Rock Victories, 2021-2023

It's incredible the difference a year can make. I went into my debut start at Berlin last year well aware that it could be my only shot to race at this level. I feel incredibly blessed to have had the opportunities to race, but also the opportunity to work with great people at Fast Track Racing. Andy gave me a shot that nobody else would, and I’m hopeful that the chance he took on me can pay off this year at Flat Rock, a track where Andy & Fast Track have success in the past.
