A few issues all throughout practice today so I barely managed to get decent runs but it seems like this @lexus_jp LBX Morizo-RR likes to do a bit of gravel driving. Overall, a lot learned about the new car today. Gonna make a few changes so we can push hard for qualifying tomorrow!

Quite the disappointment for us at Atlanta. Really, just disappointed in myself more than anything. Thankful for my team for keeping me in check. And to everyone that stopped by our booth, thank you! #GAZOOperformance 📸: @phaze2yogi

New Team Merch!!! Some of you saw at Long Beach as have new 2026 KGMS x @greddyperformance team gear available through GReddy.com or in-person at our booth at all Formula Drift rounds. That means you can grab some cool shirts and hoodies at Road Atlanta this weekend! #TeamToyota
Finally had the chance to install my @radiumengineering Dual Catch Can setup for my jzs171 Crown. Used a smaller battery to make space for a bracket to hold the catch cans in a convenient location. A couple of Radium JZ press-in valve cover swivel head 10AN fittings, their 10AN ORB PCV to 3/8push lock for the plenum side, and another 10AN ORB to a 1/2barb for the air filter side. Then I used some @greddyperformance hose ends mated to their nylon braided hose to connect the 10AN fittings. No more fumes, and keeps oil out of the intake and charge pipes! #TeamToyota #jzs171 #17クラウン
Good times. Looking forward to the rest of the Japan season. Today, I fly home to LA to prep our US car for Atlanta. But I’ll be back here in a few weeks for round 2! @kazama_auto@lexus_jp
And that’s a wrap for the first round of @formuladjapan Fuji Speedway. Huge progress on our @lexus_jp LBX Morizo-RR through the entire week but it wasn’t enough to take down the eventual winner. Top 16 finish for us in the brand new car! Still have a lot to learn with the car but I know for a fact it has huge potential. I just need a grasp of it. Thank you to all my fans and friends who stopped by to say hi! And a massive shout out to the entire @kazama_auto crew for constantly updating the car. I will get the LBX on the podium!
