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.
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.…
I appreciate the irony of naming the annual summer pilgrimage to Barber Motorsports Park, ‘Winter in July.’ And just like in previous years, the weather did not disappoint. The heat index was 101 degrees, with clear and brutally intense skies.…
May has been a busy month. Formula Drift, NOLA Motorsports Park, and then Nashville Superspeedway. Nashville would turn out to be an interesting conclusion to the month with wild weather and a few unusual experiences.

It’s been hard sitting out part of the race season due to injury. Especially while transitioning the Miata to Super Touring 6. But I did my time and took it easy for 8 weeks to rehab the severely broken right…
Last place, or almost last, we’ve all been there. At one time, it was a lack of experience. Other times I can point the finger at good ol’ bad luck. And now, it’s an issue I haven’t faced in a…
I’ve moved out of the Mid-South to the beautiful ‘mountains’ of Northern Alabama. But, I’m still close enough to call the Mid-South region with the National Auto Sport Association home. Making the Nashville Superspeedway (NSS) event in … Nashville, TN…
