BELLEVUE, Ohio – After taking over as the driver of the Genzman Racing Enterprises No. 53 late in 2014, Bellevue, Ohio native Cap Henry and the team put together a great 2015 season in which they earned three victories together. In all, Henry finished with a top-five 20 times in 41 feature starts, opposed to six DNFs.

Henry’s season began on April 4 with a fifth-place finish in Attica (Ohio) Raceway Park’s “Spring Nationals” with the All Star Circuit of Champions. Three consecutive fourth-place finishes highlighted the month at both Attica and Fremont (Ohio) Speedway.

In May, Henry finished on the podium on four occasions, including sweeping the Fremont/Attica Sprint Title races at those tracks on May 15 and 16. He tacked on another two top-ten finishes with the All Stars before a feature start with the World of Outlaws at Attica’s “Kistler Engines Classic” resulted in a 20th-place finish.

Henry continued to impress in June, finishing no worse than eighth in his six feature finishes. Late in the month, the Genzman team made a run at four “Ohio Sprint Speedweek” races. Henry finished fifth at Attica and eighth at Waynesfield Raceway Park before the only blemish of the month, a DNF at Sharon Speedway in Hartford. The group then finished the month with a fourth-place effort back at Fremont.

The luck turned for Henry and the No. 53 at the beginning of July. After losing an engine in hot laps at Attica on July 3, Henry stepped into Stan Cortad’s No. 9X for the reopening of Millstream Speedway in Findlay, Ohio two days later, but was unable to finish. He roared back upon his return to the Genzman’s Level-powered J&J, taking four podium finishes in his next five races, including a triumph at Attica on the final day of July.

August was a month of extended bad luck, however. After finishing tenth at Fremont on August 1, back-to-back DNFs came at both FAST series races the following weekend. More engine troubles after the Nationals break kept Henry from starting the main event on August 28. He was then approached by Coomer Motorsports to run a part-time schedule in their No. 21, beginning at Atomic Speedway in Chillicothe, Ohio the following night. Henry agreed, and piloted their Aesthetic Finishers entry to a fifth-place finish.

Henry would split time in the two entries for the balance of the season, finishing the Fremont points chase in Marilyn Genzman’s machine while competing elsewhere in Bill Coomer’s sprinter. In the No. 21, Henry notched a fifth-place finish on day two of the “Attica Ambush.” The next three races would be the last for Genzman as a car owner, set to retire at the end of the season. Henry was a runner-up on September 12 and finished fourth on September 18, but issues on the final night of the Jim Ford Classic relegated him to 17th place.

Henry entered six more events with Coomer Motorsports in 2015, decorated by a sixth-place finish at Millstream and an eighth-place run at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio, both in All Star competition. The team’s final race of the season resulted in a hard-charging effort with the World of Outlaws at Lawrenceburg (Ind.) Speedway, where Henry started 21st and rallied forward 11 positions to finish tenth.

Henry would like to send a special thanks to Marilyn Genzman and the entire Genzman Racing Enterprises team for their support this season. Henry would also like to thank Level Performance, J&J Auto Racing, OC Shocks, FK Rod Ends, Simpson Race Products, Keizer Wheels, Wings Unlimited, HMS Speedways & Hobbies, Handy Grafix, and Kear's Speed Shop as well as his family and all of his great fans for their continued support.
