Karwood Motorsports was established in 1994, when Jeff Herbers started drag racing in northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri. Jeff competed for three years until the summer of 1997, when he decided to switch to stock car racing.
	In the summers of 1997 and 1998, Jeff raced in the Street Stock Division, at Thunderhill Speedway in Mayetta, Kansas and at Midwest Speedway in Junction City, Kansas. In 1998, Jeff attended 16 of 24 races at Thunderhill Speedway, where he was named Sportsman of the Year in the Street Stock Division.

He finished in the top ten in all of the other 14 races that he finished. That same summer, he attended five races at Midwest Speedway, and boasts two feature wins, with a total of three top five finishes.
In 2000, Jeff purchased and refurbished an IMCA Modified Stock Car, that he raced at Thunderhill Speedway, Midwest Speedway, and at Boone Speedway in Boone, Iowa.
