Thanks to Super Production Challenge for the recognition as Crew Chief of the Year! I am very proud to race in a series with so many friendly, competitive, and generally really cool people! And of course, while my name is on this plaque, the reality as we all know is that none of it would be possible without the support of our crew, our friends, our family, and even our fiercest competitors on track, who are always willing to help in the paddock!

So thanks to the whole 8legs Racing crew (past, present, and temporary!), my team mate and co-driver Eric Hochgeschurz, my wife Tania Wojciechowski, the whole Metric Homes Racing team (who also won a spiffy award of their own for 2025), to the owners and team at Super Production Challenge, and to everyone else who, if nothing else, loves racing and motorsport.

We're looking forward to the 2026 season with SPC! Let's go! 🤘

Special thanks to Jeff Steenbakers and Bad Habit garage for the cage build. And can't forget our great friends at Metric Homes racing, always there for us when we need help!

Well after a rather terrible start to our 2025 season, what is a team to do? We roll up our sleeves and get to work! In case you're curious what comes out of a street car to get it prepped for racing ... this just the interior stuff 😵‍💫 The new shell is just about ready to go. Thanks to Metric Homes Racing and to my Love & Mayhem band mate Evg for lending a hand! So much work in 6 hours!

Here we go again! Off to a fantastic start to the 2024 racing season. Eric qualified 5th, then raced hard to finish 2nd in race one. 1st place for me (despite my tire roasting start, and thanks for putting me on front row, Eric!) in race two, and we won't talk about the race three FCY s**t show 🤬. Also, Instagram ... why do people use that piece of crap app? Impossible to actually post a photo cropped how I want. Anyway ... great weekend! Thanks to all our family, friends, and volunteers for always making it awesome!

thanks to W.O. Stinson and Son Ltd as always for the support
