Things are coming full-circle for Matt Kemp on May 18th, where he will make his second ARCA Menards Series East start with Fast Track Racing, this time in familiar territory at Flat Rock Speedway. Kemp enters the ARCA event with an impressive resume at the level pebble, finishing top 5 in all but one start across all classes since 2014, including 5 consecutive wins and 6 podiums since 2018.
“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, if not my favorite tracks while racing regionally with the MCR Dwarf cars, and 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.”
“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.”
Joining Matt in his journey to Flat Rock will be his Partners, Work for Green Shield Deck Builders, Hoaks Graphics, ELH Detailing.
