2019 was a very successful year of racing for Kyle and his 24 racing team. Moving into the Ontario Mini Stock Division at Flamboro Speedway was a big jump from Junior Late Models, but Kyle learned quickly how to handle the car at this new track and was able to move through the field quickly to achieve his first win in the Series midway through the year. He followed that up with 2 more wins during the course of the year and consistently was at the front of the pack. Kyle was set to be Rookie of the year in this Series, but due to some mechanical issues was not able to complete enough races to be a contender.
Kyle traveled to Sauble Speedway this summer, to compete in the Summer Showdown Invitational. This was a 50 lap race, with 30 cars from all over Ontario racing to get into the feature. Kyle won his heat race, guaranteeing his spot in the feature where he raced his way to the front and ended up on the podium with a 3rd place finish.
The final race of the year was the biggest Invitational in Ontario at Flamboro Speedway, Frostoberfest. This invitational race night attracted 42 Mini Stocks from all over Ontario, who needed to qualify through time trials to make the 2 50 Lap features. Kyle’s experience at this track and fast car earned him 3rd fastest car in qualifying. With a 3rd place finish in the first 50 lap race and a 10th place finish (after a late race incident) in the 2nd 50 lap race, this put him in 5th place over all. An exciting night and a great way to end his first season in the Mini Stock Series.
In 2021 Kyle won the Flamboro Speedway Championship and was the Rookie of the Year in is No. 24 Qwick Wick Pro Late Model. Kyle also had his debut in the APC United Late Model Series where he finished 1st.
In the 2022 season Kyle entered 27 events with his #22 Pro Late Model. He won Rookie of the Year in his first year in the APC United Late Model Series and finished 2nd in the season standings. Kyle also finished 2nd in the Delaware Speedway weekly series standings. He entered two NASCAR Pinty’s Series events, surprising many of the other 30 competitors by finishing 4th in his debut with the series. In December, Kyle and his team made the trip to Pensacola, Florida to race in the Snowball Derby Snowflake 100. Kyle had a strong qualifying effort, placing 11th out of 55 of the strongest racers in North America, unfortunately he fell into trouble in the race and finished 22nd.
In addition to APC Auto Parts CANUSA and Qwick Wick Fire Starters, Steckly is proud of the continued partnerships and support of the following long-time supporters who’ve played a key role in his rise through the racing ranks; AW Millwrights, Milverton Food Town, Lift Solutions, Schmidt Logging, Triple B Spraying, High Fluid Products, Fritz-Alder Precast, Tightline Anchors, Stewart’s Equipment, and Phoenix Electric.
