A white Lexus IS250 racing down a forest road. The leaves and trees are in full color change mode, a sea of orange and yellow. The road is gravel and slightly damp. — The Most Beautiful Rally
Jaw dropping fall foliage. Getting the chance to drive these roads was something else! Several points throughout the rally I found myself having to remind myself to focus because it was legitimately distracting. Big thanks to Mele Media for the photo!

Me standing exhausted after finishing a race. I’m holding a black trophy for 2nd place. My mechanic stands next to me. — Exhausted, but: mission accomplished
Been chasing the National podium for a year now. Started off just missing it, then rolled a car off a cliff, then an engine failure leading to a DNF. Was starting to think it couldn’t happen this year. LSPR wound up going in my favor though! We managed to put in a reliable drive through tricky conditions, and the team (mechanic pictured with me here) built a hell of a car. Tanked more than I thought possible. Here’s to next year!

Me sitting in a race car cockpit. My visor on my helmet is up as I do final checks. — Paddock Check
Moments before heading out on to the track. Final check with the crew and engineers. Getting to drive this track is beyond my wildest dreams. Thanks to my good friend Tomo Goshozono for the photo!

Red and yellow Ferraris are driving down a race track. The grandstands on the right are filled with people. The city looms in the distance. — Singapore GP: Driver Parade
The lead up to the Grand Prix. By this point I am absolutely drenched in sweat, but we had a great view and the energy of the crowd was great.

A white rally car racing through the woods at high speed. A red tape barrier is visible in the trees in the background. — Overmountain Rally 2025
Not quite the return to rally that I wanted; DNF on the first full day of stages was no fun. At least we got to try out some new pace note techniques from OzRallyPro, and the event itself was a blast to see - very well run! On to Lake Superior next. Thanks to MeLe Media for the photo!

A crumbling drag racing strip stretches in to the distance. The sky above is filled with clouds. Grandstands are visible over on the left side. — Forgotten Track
Was at a small track for a drifting event, spotted this long unused portion while cooling off. Wonder how many races this has seen?

A silver Lexus slides through a wide dirt track turn. A massive dirt cloud is spewed up behind it. Spectator tents are visible in the background. — Dirt for Spectators
I don't fully recall where this turn was, but I do remember smiling as we tore through it. Thanks to Mele Media for the photo!

A silver Lexus rips through a turn in the woods. Leaves and dust are kicked up behind it. — Flying Lexus
Thanks to Mele Media for the photo! River City Rally builds a hell of a car.

Thanks to Mele Media for the photo! River City Rally knows how to build a great car.

A silver Lexus skims down through a dirt road in a very green lush forest. — Riding a Corner
If memory serves correct, this was in a really fun spot that dips weirdly low - and you can use that compression and ride the edge of the road up. Thanks to Mele Media for the photo!

A silver Lexus speeds down a dirt road. Greenery surrounds the road, and dust is being kicked up behind the car. — Sending It
SOFR2025 wasn't a great Rally for me - at least, not with how it ended - but this photo of us going for it is awesome. Big thanks to the crew at Mele Media for getting it!
