2008 Starts off With a Near Miss Jon Tesch Racing started the 2008 racing season with a trip to Humboldt Speedway in Humboldt, KS. It was the United States Modified Touring Series.

Tesch took the win in Heat Race #2, and started the 40-lapper on the front outside spot. Tesch would take the lead right at the drop of the green flag. Lapped traffic was a factor all night, but Tesch held the lead.

Jason Hughes made a move on the final lap when Tesch was caught dealing with lapped traffic, and Hughes would nip Tesch at the line by a car length for the win. Tesch finished second after leading 39 of 40 laps.
