We discuss it, digest it, debate it, whatever the case may be. If we are very lucky, we get to actually witness something special while it is occurring.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Such is the case with TJ Decaire Racing and their sporty young shoe in 2022. If you have been paying attention to FL short track racing and Sunshine State Racing, you are well aware of the previous successes of this team. Karts and Legends, wins and championships in both.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We are only half way through the year and to say this team is on fire just will not do them justice or provide the credit that is deserved. This crew busts their tails on cars for TJ, and it isn\u2019t always fun and games. Sometimes they roll off the trailer fast and the days seems effortless. Other times it is a real challenge and finding a handle on the car is a daunting task, and they must fight for everything.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-30788\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/278815707_1374346329699834_3255574190839803581_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"204\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The team started off quickly this year racking up a few wins early on. But it was the month of April that let us know that we were seeing something special. The team won an astounding 9 of 9 races in the legend car. I\u2019m going to repeat that, 9 races, 9 wins! The legend community was firmly on notice that Decaire Racing was on the hunt for the national title. The local racers are paying attention as well. Some veteran FL racers are paying close attention, saying they know he will be a contender when he gets into full size cars. To late fellas. In his first pro late model race in NC, TJ qualified well and finished 3<sup>rd<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As of this article, the team has racked up 18 wins on the year. 18!! But wait, there\u2019s more. They have 3 runner up finishes and a 3<sup>rd<\/sup>. The team has not finished lower than 3<sup>rd<\/sup> in any race so far this season.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-30393\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/274139901_309808777836478_5624056628857320239_n-1-660x365.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"365\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This little family team from our home state, with their up-and-coming driver, are on an absolute tear. And not just at home, everywhere they go. Let\u2019s be honest, they\u2019re dominating at the moment. Sometime outright and sometimes with a little luck. But a win is a win and I believe the old saying applies here, \u201cluck is when preparation meets opportunity\u201d. This team is always prepared and if things go sideways, they find a way to win when the opportunity presents itself. They were self admittedly not a winning car last weekend. TJ fought to get up as high as he could and after a late race incident took out the leaders, well, you know, they were there to make the most of an opportunity and grabbed another victory.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-29720 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1365\" height=\"1364\" srcset=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-768x767.jpg 768w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-800x799.jpg 800w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-840x840.jpg 840w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n-1200x1199.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/236888877_194101389407218_2593527386206810701_n.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1365px) 100vw, 1365px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-29719\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/201938365_164439289040095_1841385376614965918_n-660x365.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"660\" height=\"365\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29717\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2-200x109.jpg 200w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/2.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29716\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/1-200x122.jpg 200w, https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/1.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-29778\" src=\"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/SSR-507x365.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"507\" height=\"365\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The story behind the 18 wins this Season, The Young man who is TJ DeCaire Racing &nbsp; TJ DeCiare Racing \u00a0 Every once in a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":29718,"template":"","meta":{"publish_to_discourse":"","publish_post_category":"","wpdc_auto_publish_overridden":"","wpdc_topic_tags":"","wpdc_pin_topic":"","wpdc_pin_until":"","discourse_post_id":"","discourse_permalink":"","wpdc_publishing_response":"","wpdc_publishing_error":"","_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"class_list":["post-30881","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/30881","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/30881\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30882,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/30881\/revisions\/30882"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29718"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30881"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30881"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/karnac.com\/flanews\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=30881"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
