American Rally Association
The premier rally organizer in North America. Been racing in it for a bit now (car #91). Thanks to River City Rally for building a tank of a car - and finally to the sponsors and friends who came along for the ride: 425 Motorsports, Fuji Select, and FoxCove IT Services!
Cattle Guard Yump
We took it easy on the second pass of this... we sent it the night before though. Wish we had a shot of that! Thanks to MeLe Media for the shot!
After the Cattle Guard
Landing from the infamous Cattle Guard jump. We took it easy on this pass; thanks to MeLe Media for the shot!

A clean shot. Thanks to MeLe Media for the shot!
Back in it
Rough start to the event, but we were moving well by this point!
Night Ice Racing
All this photo does is make me want studded tires.
Damn Radiator
This photo would be one of my favorites, if we hadn't opted to block the radiator with cardboard. Still a great shot though - thanks to MeLe Media!
2nd Place: Sno*Drift 2026 L2WD National Podium
The end of a 2 day race - and I am clearly exhausted at this point. We only lost by 15 seconds though! We had a healthy (ish) lead coming in to the end, but a run-in with a cone that another competitor inadvertently left on a stage led to us having a brief encounter with a snowbank. Such is rally, I guess. I don't want that to take away from the results though: Santiago Iglesias and Robert Kassel ran one hell of a race and it was a crazy fun weekend battling it out with them. Here's to hoping we can give them another run at Hundred Acre Wood in a few weeks! (Also: never let yourself get sprayed with champagne in sub zero temps, because holy hell do the hands hurt when they freeze afterwards). Thanks to Crystina Coats for co-driving all weekend - and thanks to Mele Media for the shot!
Sliding on Ice
Ice racing seems to be a totally different beast. I would like to think we had a good showing overall, but this photo is evidence that you're just spending the entire stage searching for any grip you can get. Thanks to Mele Media for the photo!
Not-Bonfire-Alley
Sno*Drift Rally is definitely a tricky one: no studded tires allowed, icy and snowy roads that are ready to throw you off at a moment's notice... and some of the wildest fans I've seen at ARA events. Even though there was no Bonfire Alley this year, the remaining hotspots of fans were still super cool to get to drive through. Photo courtesy of Mele Media!
Sno*Drift 2026
Keeping momentum on uphill portions of stages, in RWD, without studded tires... can be frustrating, haha. Great shot though (photographer: [Titanium Media](https://www.instagram.com/titanium.media)).
