Racing career
Hedlesky has competed in select ARCA Re/Max races from 2000 to 2007, with the exception of 2004. Hedlesky's previous ARCA starts came behind the wheel of cars fielded by legendary team owner, Junie Donlavey.
Hedlesky was the General Manager of Donlavey Racing in the Winston Cup Series from 1998 to 2004, the year Donlavey decided to retire from active competition. At the 2002 UAW-GM Quality 500 at Lowe's Motor Speedway, he was the last person to qualify Donlavey's legendary #90 Lucas Oil Ford, starting 41st and finishing 43rd after 31 laps for his only Cup start.
Hedlesky's last competitive race was in 2007 in the ARCA Series.
In 2017, Hedlesky became the spotter for Cup Series driver Matt Kenseth. He was swapped with Kenseth's previous spotter Chris Osborne after the retirement of Carl Edwards and the promotion of Daniel Suarez to the 19 car in the Monster Energy Cup Series.
