The new 12a made its first debut Friday evening at Path Valley. Shawn was not very happy with the car at all. “We have been having throttle issues since Wednesday evening”, stated Shawn. “It’s not the teams fault. It’s a new car and we need to get the bugs worked out.”
Shawn took the green flag and spun in turn four. He lost his steering going into turn one and was taken to the pits.

Xzander drove the 12x. He did not start the feature.

“We are hoping to get issues resolved this week and get back to Path Valley on Friday evening before we take off for two weekends to go on vacation.”, stated Shawn.

We will keep you updated through the week as to how the plans are going on returnong to Path Valley on Friday, August 29. Thank you for visiting our site. Be safe!

The Team would like to welcome Stump Acres Diary Farm to the Sabko, Inc. Racing team for the remainder of the 2008 racing season. It was agreed upon last evening at Lincoln Speedway that they would join and help the Team out. We look forward to getting their name on the 12a car this week, and the Team hopes to make them feel welcomed. Thank you very much for your sponsorship! From the entire Team!

Sabko, Inc. Racing is now looking for sponsors for the upcoming 2009 racing season. Although the 2008 season is still upon us, we understand how important it is for companies to get their advertising budgets in order by the end of 2008. The Team also needs to have cars rebuilt, painted, decaled, etc. by the end of January 2008 for the start of the “Show Season” which kicks off the middle of January.

2009 will find two 600cc micro sprints in action at area tracks. Shawn will be piloting the 12a and his son, Xzander, will be piloting the 12x.

The Team has hopes to race two nights a week next season and attend some National events if it is the budget. The Team will be running in the Pennsylvania 600 Speedweek being held around the July 4th weekend.

If you or someone you know may be interested in a primary sponsorship or an associate sponsorship, please feel free to click on the “Contact Us” logo at the top of the page. The Team has “mini” sponsorship booklets they can send out for serious inquiries only. The Team is also working on a few deals already for 2009, so don’t miss out on joining our Team and enjoying the many different venues of racing.

Thank you for visiting! The Team will be at Susquehanna Speedway Park on Wednesday evening for another practice session. Take care and see you all soon!

As of last evening, the new Team car has arrived at the race shop. The Team will try and have everything together for Wednesday, August 20 for the “Test and Tune” session at Susquehanna Speedway Park.

Depending on how the car runs, Shawn may be racing this car at Path Valley Speedway Park on Friday, August 22. The Team will be at Path Valley either way on this date.

We will keep you informed of any updates or changes as they arrive. Also, the Team would like to wish Jeff Sheppard a speedy and full recovery after a racing accident in Knoxille, Iowa last weekend. You are in the Teams thoughts and prayers.

The weather conditions couldn’t keep the 12a Team away from the track. They drove through the rain and made it to the track on time. Although Mother Nature made a visit to the track before they got there.

The racing action finally got started about an hour to an hour and a half late. Shawn had three hot lap sessions to prepare for his heat race.

Shawn started the 12a on the pole in the second heat. Upon taking the green, the 12a spit and sputtered. Shawn finished seventh in his heat. When the Team went over the car in the pits, they found and injector issue. The Team got it resolved and waited for the feature.

The 12a started the feature in 14th position. Shawn ran a great race and finished 10th. The Team is very happy with how the evening ended with Shawn saying, we finally made a top 10 finish at this track, and the car finally made a 20 lap A-Main and we didn’t get lapped!” As you can tell he was pretty excited for the Team as things are starting to really gel together for them.

The Team will be off next weekend for Family plans. The next race on the schedule is Friday, August 22. The Team will be making the trek back to Path Valley. Until then, be safe, drive smart, and reach for the stars.

This evening, Xzander will be practicing in the 12a at Susquehanna Speedway Park. This is a time for him to get used to the car and have some fun. He and the team are excited to see how he is improving.

Friday evening, August 8, the team has decided to return to Path Valley Speedway Park. Shawn and his family had plans come up and can not make it to Shippensburg Speedway Saturday.

The team would like to thank you for visiting once again, and hope to see you at the race track.

The team made its return to Path Valley last evening. After fixing an oil leak issue upon entering the track, Shawn was able to go out for warm ups with the 270cc micro sprints. The car was a little loose but was very strong.

Shawn started 4th in the third heat. On the start the two front row cars did not go as Shawn had thought, and he got caught up behind the two of them. He managed to finish fifth in his heat for a starting spot of fifteenth in the 20 lap main event.

Shawn was good on the start and the first few laps. Another car spun in front of him in turn three and four and Shawn spun out and bumped the other car. Shawn and the other car were put to the rear of the field. He managed to gain a few spots in the remaining laps and was credited with finishing 19th.

Shawn told Duane and Xzander that the car was unilike any other time he has driven it. He is very proud of where the team got this car to be in the few short weeks of racing in the 600cc micro sprint class.

The teams plans are to have Xzander in the car for practice on Wednesday evening from 6 until 9 at Susquehanna Speedway Park. We are not sure of a racing schedule for next weekend at this point in time. We will post on here where we plan to be at next. Thanks for visiting and have a great weekend!
