Bryan Reffner, son of racing legend Tom Reffner, was born and raised in Rudolph, Wisconsin. Growing up around racing, he was first a gear head before he ever had interest in racing himself. Originally, he only started racing because his older brother, Baird Reffner bought a hobby stock. Having fun in a hobby stock turned into wanting to race a Super Late Model after a trip to Madison International Speedway (MIS) sparked a deeper desire to continue racing and one day make it to MIS. A few years into Super Late Model racing and after winning ARTGO ROY, Bryan's career looked to be nearing an end until he won the 1984 Oktoberfest at LaCrosse Fairgrounds Speedway. That win led to building a new Bac Kar Chassis in the offseason. The innovation of Bac Kar Chassis and the time spent working with Jim, Les, and the entire Back family played a large role in not only Bryan's Super Late Model success but carried that with him through ASA and the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. Beyond Super Late Models, Bryan captured the 1995 ASA Championship, 1996 Craftsman Truck Series ROY, and Truck Series Win at Texas Motor Speedway. After NASCAR, racing led him back to ASA and also a return to Super Late Model racing where he ended his storied career in another Bac Kar Chassis. Bryan and his father, Tom, built their own chassis from the ground up in 2012-2013, that his nephew Colin Reffner raced for over the next decade.

Part 2 of 2 for Episode 015 with Mark Mackesy!

Being brought to the race track at just 4 days old to his dad's race, was just the beginning of life at the races for Mark Mackesy. When a work injury put his dad's racing on hold, it gave Mark the opportunity to get behind the wheel of a Super Late Model. Eventually then splitting time with his dad in his car, he then stepped out into his own. Growing up racing around and spending time with his racing mentors like Tom Reffner, Jimmy Back, and Dick Trickle, gave him a front seat view of how those men raced and taught him how to race. Mark has accumulated many wins, a CWRA championship, and acquired the nickname of "The King of State Park Speedway". Through all of the wins and great times racing, "sometimes the spectacle was which bar are we going to after".

Gregg McKarns, along with his wife Angie are the owners of Wisconsin's Fastest 1/2 Mile race track, or as they call it, "The Family Farm". It is the place where they are working the land to make a living. Gregg, the son of legendary race promoter, John McKarns, was born into racing and took a love for it right from the beginning. As a young kid, even living a summer in a pop-up camper behind the race track didn't deter his passion. Being a race promoter and a race track owner isn't an easy path. Through a continuation of adapting new ideas and creativity, Gregg and his family have continued to provide venues for racers and fans to enjoy short track racing. With a standard of living by the golden rule, a trait past down from John McKarns, Gregg continues to teach and share that same principle to ensure racing is in good hands, for decades to come.

Like many born into a racing family, Brandon Reichenberger wanted to be at the races as much as he could as early on as he can remember. He started racing at the age of 4 years old and when he wasn't racing, he was helping his dad at the track. At 8 years old, you could find Brandon spotting for his dad on top of their trailer. His racing career began in Go-Karts, then moved on to the DQ Dogs (4 Cylinders), and then eventually into a Super Late Model and a Midwest Truck. Brandon is currently behind the wheel of both a Super Late Model and a Midwest Truck. Much of his recent success has come in the Midwest Truck Series (MWTS) where he has racked up his share of wins and in 2024, a Midwest Truck Series Championship. His 2024 MWTS Championship didn't come without some adversity. But the adversity that he persevered through, came from challenges outside the racetrack when he and his wife navigated a complicated route with their son Chase's health. His son Chase shares the same love of racing as his dad, and it was that love that kept Brandon at the track even when Chase couldn't be. As Brandon and his wife focused on getting Chase's health improved and heading on the right track, Brandon still found himself holding the championship trophy at the end of the 2024 racing season.
