Although not his first year of racing, we’d say if there was a break out year for Wayland Campbell, this was it. Son of rock racing legend Shannon Campbell, Wayland has gotten faster and faster with each and every race. There aren’t many drivers that, when you’re on course shooting photos, make you step back a few feet as they fly by. Shannon is one of those drivers, Wayland is now the other. As the season came to a close last Saturday, Wayland grabbed 3rd for the weekend’s National Championship and earned himself a 2nd place finish for the 2013 Ultra4 National Series, which by any standard is nothing short of amazing. Congrats again to Wayland, and the entire Campbell Racing team.

Derek West had an incredible run for the 2013 Ultra4 season. He finished last weekend’s Nationals Championship in 5th place, giving him a 4th place overall series finish and even better, a 1st place East Coast series finish. Congrats to Derek West, co-driver Jason Henne, and the entire team for another great year!

Jason Blanton ended the 2013 Ultra4 series on a high note. With last weekends 4th place National Championship finish, Jason secured himself a 3rd place finish for the entire 2013 Ultra4 series. Otherwise known as the fastest straight axle (1st and 2nd series overall are both IFS), Jason’s 3rd place finish is nothing short of impressive. This is Jason’s first Ultra4 series, and with non-stop top place finishes starting from this year’s King of the Hammers, it’s safe to Jason we’ll be seeing more from Jason in 2014. Congrats to Jason for a great finish to a great Ultra4 season.
