Racing in the Hawkeye State – Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport Ready to Race at Iowa Speedway

Newton, IA. (August 6, 2026) – Jordan Anderson Racing Bommarito Autosport travels to Newton, Iowa this weekend to race at Iowa Speedway.

The .875 mile track features progressive banking around sharp corners, that will make handling and car balance essential for the 250-lap race.

The team will field three Chevrolets this weekend: Jeb Burton in the No. 27 Celsius Chevrolet, Blaine Perkins in the No. 31 The Gentleman Thief Chevrolet, and Carson Brown in the No. 32 Distributor Wire & Cable Chevrolet.

Jeb Burton travels to Newton, Iowa currently sitting 20th in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series (NOAPS) standings. The Halifax, Virginia native comes off a 20th place finish at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and is looking to keep the momentum going.

“I’m excited to get back to Iowa. We had a really good car there in 2024,” said Burton. “Last year we weren’t very good, but I feel like we know why. It’s always been a really fun track to race. We’ve got Celsius back on the car, so hopefully we can do a good job for them, and keep trying to gain some points to keep us in the top-20, so we can get back to where we need to be.”

Blaine Perkins heads to Newton, Iowa, a track he is familiar with dating back to his days in the NASCAR K&N West Series. Perkins currently sits 22nd in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series standings, and is looking to put together a strong performance in effort to make it in the top-20 in points. Perkins will have “The Gentleman Thief” on his Chevrolet, the latest movie starring renown Hollywood actor, John Travolta.

“I’m really excited to get Iowa Speedway this weekend,” said Perkins. “Iowa is one of the first big race tracks that I went to, being from the west coast. Being in the K&N West Series back in the day, Iowa was always a big race for us. I’m excited to the have The Gentleman Thief on the car. It’s extremely cool to have them on the car, and we’re looking forward to giving them a good run on Saturday night.”

Carson Brown prepares to make his debut in the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series at Iowa Speedway. The talented prospect from New London, North Carolina, at 18 years old, will become the youngest driver to start in the series in 2026 when the field takes the green flag on Saturday night.

“I’ve been fortunate to race with great teams, filled with really smart and driven people, who have prepared me for this moment.” “The O’Reilly Series is a big step, but it’s the right step and I’m definitely ready for it. It’s an awesome opportunity and I’m proud to be doing it with Chevrolet, Jordan Anderson Racing and Distributor Wire & Cable. Every race I’ve run has been about learning, getting better and preparing myself for the next opportunity,” Brown said. “No matter the series, you’re going up against some really talented drivers and equally talented teams. Everyone is there to win, so you have to bring your A-game every time. That’s the way it should be, and the O’Reilly Series is a continuation of that, but on a bigger stage.”
