Like so many who take up the sport. James Phipps began as a fan. Looking back he says, “I grew up watching members of my family race in the Bomber class at Benton County Speedway (Boswell, Indiana) and I have always had a passion for that class. In 2022 he attended the Bailey Hicks Memorial at Lincoln Park Speedway.
Racing accomplishments: 10th position in 2023 Bomber Class and named Lincoln Park Rookie of the Year.
Of note: “People ask or comment on the HULK on my car. That is my son’s favorite Avenger and I wanted something on my car for younger kids to cheer for. So far it has been a big hit so it’s staying!
Goals: I feel like I learned a lot a look to better myself this year. The 2024 season will be my second and I hope to take it up to the next level. I would liked to get a couple of top five finishes and of course, that first feature win.
