Don't be discouraged Tanner. You've had to encounter so many new experiences in a short period of time that has to be overwhelming. The knowledge you've obtained is priceless in the big picture of your racing career.

[@jeffomspaugh6691]

You did a good job. I'm sure you learned a lot and didn't tear anything up

[@iTakerrr]

These half miles you haven't ever raced at especially here in PA are gonna be tough your first time out. It just is what it is, you do what you can, you looked ok, didnt junk a car, you just learn what you can for whenever you're back to it. You did a good job overall. Port's the same thing, new big fast half mile, it's just not what you run where you're from lol. Live and Learn.

[@DaytimeLightShow]

Thanks for the explanation of how the car is handling. Drivers understand the terms you're using, it's really helpful for me. Sometimes a video just doesn't allow for the viewer to really feel the car. Also Sprint cars little different than some other racing machines. The whole idea of staying flat or going faster to make it turn or to make it stick is pretty foreign to a kart racer like me. Also I understand how the locals are fast. Your humility makes you my favorite athlete. Trophies and glorious memories fade over time. Character wins forever.

[@Gwtwbmwz32]

So much pressure is felt from outside and inside. We know you are driving hard, and great runs will happen. Next time you are at the East Coast Grove, you will be ready to rumble. Have a great night at the Port Royal. You are the "Oregon Outlaw."

[@frankisfunny2007]

This Pennsylvania swing is a starting point, Tanner! I think I've put this in the comments once, I'll put it here. This quite is especially true for those trying to race in anew region..... "Without a start, how can you get better"?

[@stevenbond8168]

You can't lose with all the experience your gaining . You will be the one to beat down the road big time. Don't like back keep looking forward . Go get em Tanner . 🎉🎉

[@jasonlavere5071]

Tough weekend for sure. Definitely been a difficult trip east for Shark Racing. The good thing is you have 3 team cars where you all can be experimenting with different setups and hopefully one of you guys hit something. I know its frustrating but you are going about it the right way. Keep your heads up!

[@davidbreman2494]

Tanner you gotta pull it together you have to get a better start if you don't top cars in front of you pull away you gotta focus of doing better your racing in a whole different league now. Focus on getting up on the steering wheel

[@KeithBeenblossom-qm4io]

Just keep moving forward and keep learning love watching you race hard and have fun doing it. Keep up the hard work bud

[@johnkiley368]

Welcome to PA lol

[@robertboten4944]

Your a well spoken young man. Your parents should be extremely proud of you and your sister.

[@jamesfinley2463]

Hang In there Tanner you are doing great!!😊jimbo

[@carolinaghost5451]

keep on moving forward

[@chuckg6039]

Saw Jacob Allen in the hauler talking to Tanner.

[@crouchb15]

This was pain from the stands

[@johnbankert9343]

Nice meeting you and Carly. Welcome to PA

[@davevaughn7057]

You can see the car handling good bounces off. Man, I feel your pain your saw at the wheel.

[@chadhall5921]

Just remember there are also weekends that you can’t do anything wrong lol. That’s why it’s called racing and not winning I guess. You’re doing great bud keep digging

[@FreeJaffa92]

Willam’s Grove is a track that is so difficult that Joey Saldana only finished 2nd there fewer than 3 times, and never won. Getting through a weekend without totaling your car is good enough.

[@melabshier5812]

Kiddo, good to see Carly has a new Low-E team tee shirt. Can just hear Johhny Gibson on the call at Sunset Speedway with 24 WOO sprint cars on the bullest of bull rings, Green flag, leader into lap traffic on lap one...😂😂😂😂

[@chrisodie2467]

Good experience dude..hopefully it carries on to next year when you stay regional and try to win a 410 race out west in your equipment

[@toddguyer3528]

Keep the faith, it will get better!

[@kend6232]

those straights are huge ... used to those bullrings out west :) Keep digging brother, you'll get it!

[@robertcharles1026]

Keep learning Tanner it's all new to you so take the good days with the bad. Question, as I am not a racer, is it better to start the night with a tight setup or a loose set up. Keep up the good work.

[@michaelnotary5205]

Those starts.. ackkk... best of the best there. .. That's a long straight..

[@Dave_9547]

Agree, always catching up after the starts. Need to hammer down.

[@lieutenantcliff]

Welcome to Pa. Maybe next year you can try your hand at Grandview Speedway, my hometown track. ✌

[@nathanfisher1826]

Great job 😊

[@user-wx5oc6qk9j]

Hi Tanner, keep up the the great work. I have been following you for a few years now and have enjoyed watching you reach your dream. Don’t let the knockers get to you .Drive that car hard and show them you’re the best. Hope you are at the chilly bowl again this year. Anyway tanner good luck. Cheers from Bluey from Downunder.

[@brookespoordad]

I grew up going to that track,it’s a very hard track to get around,Don’t get discouraged.

[@RegularJoes]

Those straightaways are so long you could order dinner on your phone by the end of the straight. Although the pucker factor could be distracting. To bad you never got to get experience running Calistoga in California ( Rico's neighborhood) one of the few 1/2 miles in Cali.

[@rayisland23]

Pa. Tracks are not easy especially for the first time.

[@sharpieguy9696]

Tanner, running Late Models, but not on your level, leaving dirt and moving to asphalt in 1987, I learned about load and unload as y’all call it now. In my day we called getting the car to set. What I taught myself 😮s when let offfull throttle is to use that millisecond to turn and once the car started to turn was to use throttle to make the car take a set. Throttle up and yeehaa it drifted towards the outside wall but by the time it got close I was nearing the next turns. May or maybe not make sense to you. Watch Kevin Harvicks in car because no one does it better on pavement but for me it seems similar to my dirt days. Don’t be discouraged Tanner. I’ve not a doubt about your future in Sprint Cars. Hang tuff

[@jpstripeit4447]

From my vantage point it looks like shark racing has performance issues. Looks like your sawing at the wheel to keep it straight. I don't think the problem is you as much as you think.

[@user-ep7gn8zb8s]

Would love to see a pedal cam one day

[@kennethbrewer6796]

I think your doing awesome. I really want to know what the car owner thinks. Kinda interested in if he is going to keep you for 2024 season

[@joshwenrich9137]

Williams grove is hard to master the track consistently changes, you would have to spend a few weeks in PA and race with the Pa posse

[@beavervalleyupdatesmore740]

Facts 💯 and this is something new to Tanner not racing but in general going to different tracks out side of the Mid west give it another year if not 6months and he will start moving up/forward reason why Gravel and all them are as good as they are is because they been doing this traveling to different tracks for years now that's why I say give him 6-7 months in 2024 and Tanner will be getting a couple close to a podium or a podium finish just in the past months of him doing traveling now he's improved

[@midnight-2021]

The old master is Lance Dewease. The new master is Brent Marks. Williams Grove takes time and patience!

[@matthewhughes817]

Looks like very tight into turning but lose off

[@jamessobotka7784]

Experience !!!! Sonny boy.😊😅

[@mustang501000]

Will you be at 81 Speedway in Kansas this coming Friday…? Because I have been waiting a couple years to meet you and buy some merch…

[@dennisfogle6415]

You did good......Jan Opperman, Kenny Weld, Bobby Allen and Lynn Paxton didn't bring home a trophy the first time they ran the Grove.

[@JT2239M]

Not looking good for Tanner on the PA swing has not made any feature in Pennsylvania yet.

[@davidjessee7701]

Wait ! Did he say “ Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania is in the Midwest?” I’d say more like New England or East Coast

[@chuckg6039]

Deer in the headlight look by Tanner

[@danielkearns3600]

Looks like it needs steering damper. The left wheel looks as if it has a mind of its on and looking at steering wheel your not sawing that much. That scrubs so much speed and looks like it would upset in front grip. I raced karts for 15 years and don't know a great deal but smooth and on the throttle as soon as and as much as possible was what I looked to. Your doing great but seat time is key and your doing well and can always be better even if it feels perfect there is always room to go faster

[@markwatkins5416]

That car never let you enter the straightaway with any kind of speed. You were never able to puck the throttle up early.

[@burlap5556]

👍🏻

[@ronnelson2117]

Tanner you never get a good start. What's up with that? It is always the cars fault. NOT SO. Drive the car. Your a race car driver? Come on buddy.

[@jethrog4549]

Some days good, some days crappy. Kinda how it goes. But, the starts are an area that hurts you every time. Flag drops, they take off, you don’t go with them. Hard to watch, knowing you can be better. But heads up. Keep working hard. You’ll get there.

[@DaytimeLightShow]

I think the most spectacular wreck I ever saw was at Ocean speedway and it happened on the front row before the starting line on the green flag, where one car got a front wheel on the car in next to it and took off like a rocket in a twist. Super fun slow motion barrel roll on the wing. Starts are critical in these cars but the number one rule in racing is 'you must first finish to finish first'. Every one around you is trying to get a jump. Tanner knows what he needs to do. His poise should be respected. I've won championships I hesitate to second-guess drivers in the car.

[@demacmaster]

The would’ve could’ve should’ve tour continues. Stop second-guessing yourself and drive.

[@raymond3803]

Jacob Allen was there? That sucks. Unnecessary awkward vibe in the pits. Top 5 transfer to A. Why not next 5 transfer to B? You ran 10th. Why are you in the C?

[@Dale-ko9kc]

You need to have the mentality to be an outlawer. People can only wish you good luck. Hard to watch.
