A Molino teen picked up a couple of big kart racing wins this past weekend.

Jarrett Parker, a freshman at Northview High School, had two first place finishes  in the MS/Maxxis Dirt Track Series at Whynot Motorsports Park in Meridian, MS. He qualified on the pole in the Jr. Gold FH and took the win. In the Jr. Gold Animal division, he qualified fourth and fought his way to another win.

Parker is currently leading points chase in the Jr. Gold MX/Maxxis Dirt Track Series. He won the state championships in both Alabama and Mississippi last year. He has previously competed, either winning or placing, in races across Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Alabama.

Parker, who has been kart racing since 2003, is the son of Scott and Tammy Parker of Molino.

    Outstanding job Jarrett, we are so proud of you. They say these are just stepping stones in this part of your life but you are showing everyone that you are ready for the next conquest. You have shown companionships, sprit and a heart of gold in this sport. We hope that you can take this to many, many more levels.

    Jarrett is an exceptional race car driver and he wouldn’t surprise me in the least if his talents didn’t take him exceedingly far. I am excited to see where his journey takes him. I have grown up along his side and watched him become a fine gentlemen and diligent racer. He will go as far as he chooses to go there is no question, this was just an example of his resolve. Go Jarrett!

    Jarrett and his crewchief (Dad/Scott) did an incredible job this weekend at Whynot. Almost every weekend Jarrett is the fastest qualifier in one or more classes and then and follows it up by winning a race or two and that is very hard to do. Most people have no idea how much pre-race setup, race day adjustments, and outstanding driving is needed to pull this off. This season you are showing what you are made of.
    See you this weekend,
