May 12th, 2012 - It was a frustrating weekend for the team on the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) as Reddick saw a good chance at his first-ever tour win slip through his hands on Friday night.

For the second straight weekend a doubleheader was held for the LOLMDS competitors, and it began on Friday night at Hartford Motor Speedway (Hartford, Michigan) in the Lane Automotive 48 on the 1/2 mile oval. With 37 entries on hand Tyler began his night by racing to a third place finish in the second heat to lock into the eleventh starting spot for the main event. As the race went green he began marching his way forward and by the mid-point of the feature he was engaged in a spirited battle with Austin Hubbard and Eric Wells for the second spot. Late in the race Tyler would find his way into second as he set his sights on the leader, Don O'Neal. He would catch O'Neal in traffic with two laps to go, but disaster would strike as Reddick made contact with a lap car, resulting in a flat tire, as his chances to win the race evaporated. He was credited with a disappointing fifteenth place finish.

On Saturday the action shifted to La Salle Speedway (La Salle, Illinois) for the $10,000-to-win, Spring Shootout 50 at the 1/4 mile oval. With 30 competitors registered for battle Tyler finished third in the fourth heat to earn the twelfth starting spot for the feature.

May 5th, 2012 - The team began a busy month of May with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series (LOLMDS) over the weekend with a pair of $10,000-to-win, events in Illinois and Kentucky.

On Saturday night the team traveled to Paducah International Raceway (Paducah, Kentucky) for another LOLMDS event as 42 competitors registered for battle. Much of the night would be an uphill battle for Tyler as a seventh place finish in his heat race left him starting on the fourth row of a b-main. He would charge forward to a fourth place finish in the consolation event, but with only the top three cars moving onto the feature he would be forced to utilize a series' provisional to start the feature. In the main event he advanced from the 23rd starting spot to a 16th place finish.

April 29th, 2012 - Tyler made his second ARCA start of the 2012 season and of his career over the weekend in the Kentuckiana Ford Dealers 200 at Salem Speedway (Salem, Indiana) in the #18 Ken Schrader Racig/Broken Bow Records/Stoney Creek Records Chevrolet. In the second practice session the team would be encouraged as Reddick recorded the fourth quickest time, and turned several consistent laps.

In time trials with 34 entries on hand, Reddick qualified twelfth fastest to earn the twelfth starting spot for the 200 lap event. The team had hoped for a front row qualifying effort, but a small mishap in time trials resulted in a slightly slower lap.

In the 200 lap race, despite battling over-heating issues that resulted in extra pit stops, Tyler would battle diversity to come from the tail of the field on several occasions. During long cautions he would have to make extended pit stops to attach the cooling system to a cool down machine to bring the engine temperature down. Each time he would make the extended stops it would pin him at the back of the field. The team would work diligently through the challenges as Reddick was able to remain on the lead lap for the duration of the event. It was discovered after the event that the cooling fan had failed, which caused the over-heating issues due to no cooling, while pacing under yellows.

Reddick masterfully avoided disaster during the mid-stages of the event when contact from another car resulted in Tyler pitching the car sideways exiting turn four.

"I thought the day was about to end right there, because I was looking head-on at the end of the pit wall. I thought I was about to have the engine in my lap, but I caught the car and kept going. It was a pretty tense moment there," noted Reddick.

As the race approached its latter stages Tyler would race his way into the top ten before a late race restart jumbled the field with lap cars. In the closing laps he raced hard with Chris Buescher, who won the last ARCA event at Salem Speedway, and went on to finish eighth at the checkered flag behind race winner, Alex Bowman, Frank Kimmel, Brennan Poole, Chase Elliott, Erik Jones, Clint King, and Chris Buescher. In the closing laps of the race Reddick was the third fastest of all the competitors on the track, but just ran out of time.

Overall it was a great run for the team. Tyler has demonstrated that he has been able to adjust quickly to racing on pavement in the ARCA car. While many of his competitors have grown up racing on pavement, Tyler has had almost no experience, yet he has quickly been able to become competitive.

Tyler comments, "I have to thank my great crew chief, Larry Moore, as well as my car owner, Ken Schrader. Those guys have been huge for me so far. I also want to thank Broken Bow Records and Stoney Creek Records for their support of me and my racing career.

March 10th, 2012 - 16-year-old, Tyler Reddick made his ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards debut over the weekend in the ARCA Mobile 200 at Mobile International Speedway (Mobile, Alabama). 

In the practice session in race trim Tyler was on the leader board all day as the fifth fastest car, and of the cars not in qualifying trim he was actually third fastest overall.  In qualifications Reddick would record the 19th fastest time.  While it was not what he and the team had hoped for, it was still an impressive performance in his first true, asphalt debut.

The 200 lap event threw several curve balls at Tyler and the #18 KSR/Broken Bow Records/Stoney Creek Records Chevrolet team.  Early in the event Reddick would have to make three, unscheduled pit stops due to an over-heating engine.  Without the unplanned stops Tyler would've been running in the top five on the restarts.  Instead he kept finding himself at the very back of the field and passing, perhaps, the most cars of any driver all day.  With the unneeded pit stops, Tyler was trapped on the track on a long, green-flag run with old tires due to putting fresh tires on during the second unscheduled stop.

Consequently, Tyler had to make the longer green flag run on tires with twice the laps of anyone else.  Despite having older tires Tyler was consistently coming from the back of the field to the 13th position.  Late in the race Tyler would finally fall a lap down with 120 laps on his tires, compared to 60-70 laps on the leader's tires.  He would ultimately get the much-needed caution to put him back on the lead lap, but wouldn't get it until late in the event with just three laps remaining. He would restart 17th with three laps remaining and would go on to pass two cars to record a 15th place finish.

Overall it was a successful debut for the team, and Tyler commented, "All in all I had a great car and that kept us in the race. We were much faster than we finished, but the three pit stops just put us in a hole.  If we had been fortunate enough to get a yellow around lap 140 to change tires I think we had a car that could've finished in the top three, but it just didn't happen.  We finished 15th on the lead lap, without a single mark on the car.  Overall I'm extremely happy with our performance, and I can't wait to get back behind the wheel of this hot rod at Salem Speedway next month."

Reddick is also quick to mention that there are many people to thank for this great opportunity.  "I have a lot of great people, who are supporting me and helping me with this ARCA deal.  I would like to thank Kenny Schrader and the KSR team, Larry Moore, Jeremy Thompson, the over-the-wall crew from Kyle Petty Racing, Broken Bow Records/Stoney Creek Records, Jason Aldean and My Kinda Party, Federated Auto Parts, Hendrick Motorsports, Hoosier Tires, Bell Helmets, and IMPACT Race Products.  It takes a lot to make this happen, and without any of their help I couldn't be doing what I love," notes Reddick.
