FAISON EYES HIS FIRST WIN ON A HEARTFELT DAY
Felton, DE – CJ Faison is no stranger to winning races, as he has won all over the nation leading to a short stint in the NASCAR Xfinity Series and Camping World Truck Series. But one thing has eluded him, his first career win in a winged sprint car.
Faison, 28 years old, has had multiple top 5s in a 305 sprint car, a Rookie of the Year title, and even a win as a car owner. However, he has not been able to secure the checkered flag and add another division to his resume.
The YouTube sensation was on his way to a potential victory on March 25th, 2022 at Bridgeport Motorsports Park by setting a blistering lap time of 15.287 seconds around the high banked four tenths mile during warm-ups. But as fate would have it, Faison’s driveshaft broke coming to the checkered and sidelined him for the rest of the event.
Fast forward to this weekend, Faison will have a chance to secure that first victory in an event that is close to his heart. The inaugural Ron Faison Memorial 305 Spring Nationals, presented by PDS Professional Design Services, is a two day show headlined by the Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series in memory of the father of CJ and his sister Bridgeport Motorsports Park co-owner Brittany Rose, who passed away last year.
An emotional CJ Faison stated, “This weekend comes with a ton of pressure and emotion to say the least. My dad was my best friend, not a day goes by that I don’t think about all of the traveling and racing we did together. He loved racing so much and to see him have his own race weekend is an incredible feeling. I want to thank my sister Brittany and brother in law Doug for putting this Memorial race on. This one’s for you dad, let’s enjoy it.”
Co-owner Brittany Rose took to Facebook to state her own emotions by saying, “Sharing this post is hard. I never imagined having a memorial race for someone I loved, let alone my dad. In advance, I want to thank all of you for supporting this event.”
This event will be near and dear to everyone at the Kingdom of Speed, as Ron was vital in the revival of the concession stands at the newly renovated facility and a smiling face that everyone knew when they approached him.
Faison will have two chances to take home a victory over series competitor Kevin Nagy, who won six races last season at the Kingdom of Speed, and the rest of the field as the Mid-Atlantic Sprint Series will strap in for two days of racing.
Also on the card for this weekend will be the USAC East Coast Wingless Sprints on Saturday along with the Precision Hydraulic and Oil 602 Sportsman and Street Stocks. Joining them Sunday is the always exciting Danny’s Pizza Pizzazz Modifieds, who will be competing for $5000 to win, and the four cylinder enduros.
Pits will open at 1 pm all weekend with grandstand access starting at 2:30 pm. Racing gets underway following warm-ups at 3:30 pm.
Tickets are available for purchase at the window or online at: https://bridgeportspeedway.thundertix.com/
YouTuber CJ Faison, will also be parking behind the grandstands and doing a special meet and greet on Sunday at 3 pm for all of the fans in attendance.
This event would be a storybook beginning to the season for Faison, as he looks to take home his first career 305 win on this special weekend.
CJ I miss your dad too but know he is looking down so proud of you even though sometimes he will be shaking his head like I do when I watch your vidoes sorry I’m getting emotional he was the one that yelled for Scott Hitchens when I was with my ex and we brought his oldest daughter with us.
Best of luck CJ You can do this. You can do anything you set your mind to do. Your dad will be there watching you and cheering you to the checkered flag.
Best of Luck CJ!!!!

You got this, CJ! Nagy is the one who should be nervous, because you are about to take him down! He’s the one with all the pressure, because he has to fight to stay up there, while you have so many friends, fans, and family members supporting you. So just relax. This is nothing more than a Sunday drive in the park for you, while Nagy will be sweating bullets. I’m looking forward to hearing all about your inevitable win on Sunday. Go for it, and make your Dad proud one more time!
I wish you a whole bunch of luck and I wish I could be there to cheer you on but I live all the way down in Mississippi and I don’t drive but I’ll be rooting for you.
This will be a Great weekend for CJ. He is definitely his fathers son. CJ you are the best.
Good luck and God bless. I know what it is like to lose someone so very close to you.
CJ I’m hoping that your dream comes true for you. You deserve the win for your father. He’d be so proud of you either way but I think he’ll be watching you from heaven. Very best to you always. Good luck CJ. I’ll be hoping thar this will be your day ..peace…barb…

I have every bit of confidence in CJ. I’ve followed his career when he drove for the Xfinity series as well as the Camping World NASCAR Truck series. I also follow him on YouTube and a member of his personal text messaging service. He leaves no stone unturned and he let’s no grass grow under his feet, which is an old saying of racecar veteran’s everywhere. GO GET ‘EM CJ! Bring that Velveeta #2 across that 🏁🏁🏁flag. ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️Sending every bit of luck from south Mississippi ❤️. Love’s ya Bud! Chris and team, thank you for watching over CJ!

Cj I want to wish you all the best in racing, you deserve the win for your dad. My prayers are with you cj, and just know every corner you take brings you closer to the victory lap.

We pray for a fun, safe WIN for CJ🏁💛🧀💛 I’m certain Ron will be smiling down on CJ & the whole family this next weekend! May you have a great turn out & may you all be fully blessed during this event. Take time to take it ALL in & watch for signs & moments from above that Ron is right there with y’all!♥️ Much love from Michigan ✋♥️
