Race reports, driver development, and racecraft drawn from real competition. Wheel-to-wheel racing, drifting, karting, and track events, along with the lessons learned along the way. If it helps you become a faster, smarter driver on a racetrack, it lives here.
The older I get, the more everyone around me seems determined to act their age. I’ve never found that especially interesting. And at this point, you could say I’m something of a connoisseur of what these home bodies view as…
The summer break has been exceedingly long this year. I skipped the championship because I wouldn’t have a competitive package ready in time, and another event, the first annual Flatrock race, fell through. What is usually a one-month summer hiatus…
The Barber Motorsports event with NASA Mid South is my first outing to this world-class facility in 2025. I keep asking myself how I let that happen. I live so close, yet I find myself driving there so little. Something…
There’s something surreal about racing against your past self, especially when the ghost you’re chasing isn’t just a lap time, but a version of you that was younger, rougher around the edges, and driving a car that still had something…

Did you know endurance karting is a thing? I didn’t until I saw an Instagram ad advertising the 7-hour ‘Lucky Lap Enduro’ at the Atlanta Motorsports Park Kart Track. Although I have done plenty of endurance races in racecars, when…

Over two years have passed since my last race in 944 Spec. While I moved on for numerous reasons, the primary catalyst was the shrinking field. More often than not, I would find myself in fields of one or two…
Driving at the limit is an art. If you truly understand that, you can drive anything fast. There is a feel to driving a racecar fast that, for some, is innate and, for others, a hard-fought journey to discover. I…
After a long, late-season break, we are back at Nashville Superspeedway for a third time in 2024. This weekend at Nashville kicks off the final series of events that concludes the 2024 regular season at Barber Motorsports Park in November.…
