When you don’t have the best equipment on the grid, you can’t hesitate on openings and often create your own. Use up the entire track, including the dirt when necessary. #NasaProRacing #HondaChallenge #Riaction #Riactioncoilovers #Sparco #Honda #Acura #CRX #EF #ED9 #HondaRacing #racing #DNaGarage #BuddahConceptDesigns #TwinsTurboMotorsports #AutoFashionUSA #Vtec #FFMetalWorks #becauseracecar #HondaNation #drivenasa #EFgang #HeelToeAutomotive #RoadRacing #ClubRacing #enduranceracing #enduro #BMW #M3 #E36

Started the Qualy race from 5th and wasted no time.

Another weekend, another race track journey. And if you’re silly and don’t inflate the tires on the trailer dolly, you get a sick workout in. #racetrack #workout #towing #Porsche #Corvette

I should really invest in a camera. For now it’s me and my iPhone 15 pro against the world. 😆

We barely got started before it was over, but man, this thing is so sick to drive. It’s super responsive at high speed. No wing or splitter on a car going this fast will keep you on your toes. It’ll be down for a bit, but I’m excited to get it back out making more power and with a few more suspension tweaks to keep it in check. #chevrolet #chevy #corvette #Z06 #Racing

Things didn’t quite go as we planned this weekend, but we take the good with the bad. The good; we won our class. The bad; the Corvette's engine is severely damaged. Was looking forward to resetting the track record, but it was clear something was off as soon as we hit the track. Temperatures spiked and I was greeted with clouds of smoke, followed by nasty metal on metal noise. Managed to turn a few laps and collected valuable data on tires and suspension. The car handles great, but needs an engine to match its chassis performance. Huge thanks to everyone who came out to support me. Your support made a tough day more bearable. Big thank you to my sponsors that make this possible đŸ™đŸŒ @riactionperformance @falkentire @lmsmotorsport__ @officialdnagarage @motulusa @_sending_noods_ @autofashion_usa Special thanks to this bunch for coming out to spend the day at the track helping me make it happen: @bib_555 @emmirenn @msawsmr @bams_86 @jechikaboo @syllogicc @jdm_fd

We’ll be at Willow Springs International Raceway this Saturday competing in the Wilwood Corvette Challenge, and it’ll be the last event on Big Willow before it shuts down for major renovations. I know everyone’s got opinions on the upcoming track changes
 and I’m here for all of them 😂 Before we go full boogie this weekend, I wanted to freshen up the @osgiken LSD with some new gear oil. Huge thanks to @motulusa for keeping me dialed in on fluids. If you’re out at Willow this Saturday, come say what’s up! #Chevrolet #Corvette #Z06 #Chevy #Racing

The @theblindapexpodcast had me on to chat about going from racing Hondas to a Corvette. We discussed driving Porsches, BMW’s, RX7’s, tube chassis cars and everything in between. No matter what car we drive, the same fundamentals apply. We made fun of my wanna be cholo high socks, New Balance shoes and @raceffpod hatred for German cars and wheel bolts 😂

New project in the shop. C5 Corvette getting prepped for Gridlife Street GT and Time Attack. We’re focusing on the suspension side where we can deliver at the highest level working alongside Riaction Performance and Falken Tire as our tire partner. No guessing. Just data, precision, and doing it right from the start. Stay tuned. #LMSMotorsport #falkentire #suspensionsetup #reactionperformance

Your AMB transponder is probably difficult to access. Print yourself a little label/decal. The day you’re at tech and the inspector needs the digits, you’ll look like a seasoned pro! Also add it to your notes app. Stay ready thugs #racing #track #trackday #motorsports
