FONDA, NY โ€“ Known as the high side hustler behind the wheel, Scott Duell is using his knowledge of dirt track racing and education in graphic design to blaze his own entrepreneurial trail after creating his own company Scott Duell Marketing and Designs LLC adding to the Duell Family Racing legacy in the Capital District.

SD (Scott Duell) Marketing and Designs LLC is joining the JAM Performance CDRA Racing Series presented by Elmoโ€™s Speed Supply as an integral part of the design and marketing process through their innovative ideas stemming from race car wraps to social media campaigns.

After working years for others while his family continued to grow with wife Jade, two daughters Peyton and Parker, and another bundle of joy on the way this clay pounding poppa needed to make his own hours.

โ€œIโ€™ve been in the design and marketing world for over 15 years. About a year ago I decided it was time for my own business. So, Duell Marketing & Designs was launched and about a year later the boat is still afloat,โ€ said SD proprietor Scott Duell.

His skills are limitless specializing in graphic design, marketing, custom helmet artwork, racecar wraps, social media, and more.

โ€œLike the Days Of Thunder saying, thereโ€™s nothing I canโ€™t do with design and marketing,โ€ Duell said.

He concluded with, โ€œIf you have a company that needs a rebrand, a racer who needs a social media presence, or even a well put together sponsor presentation then I can do those things as well.โ€

SD Designs and Marketing LLC is truly a one stop shop for racers or businesses who want a professional look with a personal touch that is guaranteed to catch the eye.

โ€œIโ€™ve known Scott for nearly 20 years. Like Chris (Recker) heโ€™s always been supportive of projects I work on and willing to get involved. Iโ€™m glad heโ€™s part of CDRA and weโ€™ll get him working on some new designs for the upcoming season and who knows, maybe a sweet championship custom helmet,โ€ said Rob Hazer, CDRA competition director.

CDRA is a nostalgic throwback to the CVRA days. A series designed specifically for Capital District racing. Season two schedule consists of a diverse schedule at storied dirt tracks like the great race place, the fastest quarter mile on dirt, and the valley of speed. Drivers who do travel the Capitaland will earn hardware and some green for their efforts.

They all were understanding, had kind words of encouragement, and were excited to see the project continuing.โ€

Season Two will be a wild chase for the championship, and expect the challenge for defending champion Taylor Wason to be extreme. Itโ€™s a lucrative six race regional series sure to bring out the toughest Sportsman Modified competitors in the Capitaland.

FONDA, NY โ€“ Letโ€™s talk podium finishes from Glen Ridge Motorsports Park, which did you know that Zach Buff topped the leaderboard with seven total? He won the track title over Taylor Wason by 18 points thanks to four wins, a second, and a pair of third place runs.

One of his wins earned came during a JAM Performance CDRA points paying race presented by Elmoโ€™s Speed Supply on Hall Of Fame Classic night.

Cody Ochs earned himself a handful of podium finishes, including four wins to match Buff, and a third. Ochs was relegated to fifth in points respectively after suffering a few DNFโ€™s on the season.

Stephen Gray ended his ridge season top five in final point standings on the strength of four podium finishes. Included in his podium finishes are two trips to victory lane, a runner up, and a third.

Tavien Blowers visited victory lane at the ridge on July 14th, and backed it up with four seconds to complete his season with five total podium finishes and a podium finish in overall final track points.

One more driver to note is Tyler Bobar, who earned four podium finishes of his own at the ridge. He scored a victory on June 16th, and added a runner up and two thirds to complete his solid season.

FONDA, NY โ€“ Letโ€™s talk podium finishes again, this time checking in with Lebanon Valley Speedway. Did you know that Tim Hartman Jr. dominated the Sportsman Modified competition with record setting runs including 13 podium finishes, all wins?!

Of those wins, one came during a JAM Performance CDRA points paying race presented by Elmoโ€™s Speed Supply in August.

Matt Burke was apparently the only other driver with a ticket to the victory lane party after parking it on the front stretch to close the season in West Lebanon, NY. It was his only podium finish on the year.

Michael Sabia tried hard to put his Teo Pro Car elite in victory lane, which earned him six podium finishes. He had four runner up finishes and a pair of third place runs, but never made it to the front stretch for a celebratory dub.

Impressive to note are the five podium finishes earned by Nick Giardini. They were all runner up finishes including three consecutive to start the season in 2024.

As part of our commitment to participating tracks we share weekly results and/or stats from the Sportsman Modified division as a lead up to CDRA points paying race results and/or stats. We appreciate the valley of speed, what they offer to Capital District racing, and their support of CDRA.
