First ProTour win was a long time coming! We finally got it done today and it feels amazing! Can't thank the amazing guys at @scr_karting, @leadingedgemotorsportsinc, my family, @cometkartsales, and my @hogrydaz for the support! Let's do it again tomorrow. 💪🏼

Decent weekend for our final round of @superkartsusa PKC. We struggled to find the pace we wanted but fought through it to bring home a P9 in a great field. The result wasn’t what we came for, but there’s never a bad weekend spent at the track doing what I love.

Forever grateful to my parents for everything they do to keep me racing while building @calvodriverdevelopment. Huge thank you to my Dad, @ben_calvo1978, for working his tail off all weekend long. None of this would be possible without you guys!

Time to shift our focus to Las Vegas for the biggest races to end the season. Full push to finish the year strong! 💪🏼🔥

Wicked fast, but it wasn’t meant to be.

A mechanical issue took us out of the fight while running P2 in the PreFinal. We were putting together a great comeback in the Final before a collision ended our race once again.

The results weren’t there, but I’m incredibly proud of the effort from everyone at @calvodriverdevelopment. A huge thank you to my mechanic @monkey_heymans for working tirelessly all week and to @franco.crivelli for providing incredible power all weekend.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support me, and especially to my parents. None of this would be possible without you.

We’re feeling more confident with every race back in the seat as we continue preparing for the big ones in Las Vegas later this year.

Back at it in three weeks.

Awesome experience watching my brothers @connorzilisch and @brentcrewsracing compete at @nascar Coronado this weekend.

It’s been incredible to watch some of my closest friends from our karting days work their way up to the highest level of NASCAR through years of hard work and dedication. Seeing their success firsthand makes me incredibly proud.

A huge thank you to the Zilisch and Crews families for welcoming me and letting me spend the weekend with them. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

The future is bright for these two, this is just the beginning! 👊 #nascar #racing taken in Coronado, California by @oliver_calvo

It was one of those weekends in racing where you throw everything at it and nothing seems to stick. Qualified P4/40 and it was only downhill from there, lack of speed combined with bad luck made for a difficult weekend but I can confidently say it was never a lack of effort from the @calvodriverdevelopment team and I.

Thank you to my mechanic @j_bros_racing for busting his tail off all weekend, @p1enginesinc for the power, and my friends and family for the continued support! Back at it again this weekend for @championskartingamerica with @teamkartnick!

As always, @andrewcphan killed it with the photos! 📸 •

Great race weekend at @k1circuit! P3 and P7 at the opening rounds of @superkartsusa ProKart Challenge competition to begin our regional season. What an honor it was to race with and share a podium with my best friends in the sport, 15+ years of friendship between myself, @jakedrew29, and @tomasmejia50.

Thank you to my parents for giving me the opportunity to continue doing what I love, my mechanics @ashley.burbano and @ben_calvo1978 for their hard work all weekend long, and @leo.pasut and Crivelli Racing Engines for the great power! @calvodriverdevelopment

P3 on my @championskartingamerica series debut. We were one of the fastest drivers all weekend, qualifying pole and winning the Super Heat but missed that little bit to go for the win in the final. Thank you to @teamkartnick, @_jo_motors_ / @jeff_osborne_jo for providing me with a winning piece, my mechanic @kurt.harnasch_ for his hard work and my parents for the continued support!

Congrats to my teammate and buddy @bronsonkoustas on his podium result as well! Quick week off and I'll be back in the seat aboard my @calvodriverdevelopment machine for SKUSA PKC R1/R2 next weekend! #calvodriverdevelopment #teamkartnick #karting taken in K1 Circuit by @oliver_calvo

Ride along with me for an onboard lap around Sonoma in the rain. Always fun to do some pushing laps in between coaching sessions! @calvodriverdevelopment #karting taken in Sonoma Raceway by @oliver_calvo

Solid weekend in Tucson for my return to Pro X30 in @superkartsusa ProTour competition. Great result with a P7 on Saturday against a stacked field of the best drivers in the nation. Sunday was a bit more difficult as a parts failure had me starting last but managed to gain a dozen spots and finish P26.

It's always a great time to be back at the track racing against the best and still proving we have what it takes to run up front, even as a one man operation.

This weekend was also the launch of the @calvodriverdevelopment operation and I'm thrilled for my new venture as a team owner alongside my family! Thank you to everyone who made this weekend possible especially my parents, @precisionworksofficial for the amazing power, and @ashley.burbano for working his tail off on the wrenches for me all weekend.
