ScottRod Racing Announces 2025 Schedule Change

ScottRod Racing announces a change to its 2025 racing schedule. Due to crew chief Bob Peck’s unavailability, they will not be competing at the Virginia Nationals as originally planned.

Instead, they are pivoting to the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals at Summit Motorsports Park at the end of the month. While they won’t have their usual crew available and may be limited to one run per day, getting driver Scott Farley consistent seat time remains ScottRod Racing’s priority following their breakthrough performance at the New England Nationals.

“We’re not going racing without Bob,” said Scott Farley. “His guidance has been instrumental in our recent progress. We’d rather wait and race with a skeleton crew at Summit than compromise the momentum we’ve built.”

The team acknowledges the competitive nature of the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals field and is setting realistic expectations for the event, focusing on driver development over results.

ScottRod Racing will resume full operations at Maple Grove in September with the complete team.
