MITCHELLVILLE, Iowa (June 9, 2022) – Effective immediately, Mitchellville, Iowa-based TKS Motorsports and Grimes, Iowa’s Ryan Giles have parted ways, opening the seat temporarily for Pleasantville, Iowa’s Tasker Phillips. Phillips will make his TKS debut during the World of Outlaws sanctioned Brownells Big Guns Bash at Knoxville Raceway on Friday and Saturday, June 10-11.
Giles will leave TKS Motorsports with six Knoxville Raceway A-Main starts to his credit; the team is 18th in the championship standings.
“We want to thank Ryan for his time at TKS Motorsports, but I think it was best for everyone to take a step in a different direction,” Troy Renfro, owner of TKS Motorsports, stated. “We’re excited to welcome Tasker Phillips, who will jump in the seat for the World of Outlaws events Friday and Saturday. Hopefully we can come out swinging and put together two, great days.”
Aboard his own No. 7TAZ, Tasker Phillips is currently 13th in the Knoxville Raceway 410 track championship standings, earning two top-ten finishes in six A-Main appearances.
Giles will switch gears and continue his 2022 season with all focus aimed at the 360 sprint car division at Knoxville Raceway, aided by continued support from Albaugh LLC and Iowa Barnstormers.
