2019 One Lap of America - Brainerd Donnybrook Circuit Time Trial Onboard Video

For the 2019 One Lap of America, we trekked up to Minnesota to run time trials at Brainerd International Raceway. This is the morning time trial which run on the long, fast, crazy, fun Donnybrook layout. It was ridiculously awesome to drive. We finished 3rd overall in this time trial.

High Plains Raceway - 1:57.6 SRF3 Qualifying Lap

This was my fastest qualifying lap in my SRF3 from the August 2018 SCCA Majors race at High Plains Raceway in Colorado. It is my quickest lap around HPR to date (despite the missed shift) and put me on pole for both races over the weekend. The data between the July and August races was interesting - I mainly gained speed from a better exit from Turn 2 onto the back straight and also seemed to have a bit more straight-line speed - could be from the engine breaking in more or from alignment changes I made before the August race.

2018 Fontana ProSolo Onboard Video


It was a close battle in C-Street as usual. I was fortunate to take the lead on my final run to win by 0.028s - which I'm pretty sure is the closest win or loss I've ever had in autocross. 


Thanks Deana and Travis! Also, thanks to Mazda Motorsports, StranoParts.com, and Evolution Performance Driving Schools for the support this year!

First Autocross of the 2018 Season in the C-Street Mazda MX-5

We kicked off the 2018 season with a test day at Mineral Wells followed up by a local autocross with the Texas Region SCCA at the Texas Motor Speedway Bus Lot on March 4th, 2018. The site is a slick sealed asphalt lot with a fairly low speed course, but it's still good practice for ProSolo and generally getting back into the swing before the National SCCA Solo season starts. This is my fastest run (46.462s) which put me in 1st in X Class and 2nd in overall PAX. Also, the sealed asphalt makes for some heavy tire squeal....

Ride along for my qualifying lap and the opening few laps of the Spec Racer Ford Runoffs race!



Solo Nationals Onboard Video

This is my fastest run from Day 2 of the 2017 Solo Nationals on the West Course - 61.554s. It was good enough for 2nd quick on the day and moved me up from 14th to 6th in class after a slower than normal Day 1 result.

These are my fastest runs from the 2017 Mineral Wells ProSolo - 40.068 on the left, 40.649 on the right. I won C-Street by 0.5s - it was a tough battle with several former National Champions. I am driving a 2016 Mazda MX-5 in C-Street class. Thanks to Deana for the co-drive!
