DRIVER BIO

In 2024 we raced several different classes with a few different cars. We focused on the  SCCA Hoosier Super Tour races with SMX and STL. We finished second in the STL  class in points and just outside the top ten in SMX. We learned a lot this season being  the first full season in sports cars. We won a couple races and podiumed quite a few  times. We are learning more as we go. We have the Trans Am Series Corvette finished  and ready for laps at the end of the 2024 season. We are super excited to what this car  will do on the track. For the 2025 season we are looking at taking on the Trans Am  Series along side GridLife and some SCCA racing. We are looking for this it be a great  year with a lot of exciting things happening.  

In 2023 Austin expanded his racing resume by adding a couple new classes. We added  the Spec MX5 car and a Trans Am series car in the XGT class. Along with that Austin  was finally old enough to race the Formula Regional Championship with the F3. With  the new cars and learning a different driving pattern he started to adapt will with sport  cars. Austin raced the Trans AM car at Road Atlanta where we started to shake the car  down some. We found we had more engineering to do and decided to work this season  to get it right for 2024. The Spec MX5 we built in the off season. The first couple races  we found issues and just how different the driving styles are. We teamed up with  Advanced Autosports and stuff started clicking for us. The competitiveness of the cars  and talent in this class we are excited to see what next year bring for us in this car. In  the F3 Austin had a Goal to win his 3rd SCCA Pro FRP Formula Atlantic Championship  which he did with 6 Wins, 1 Second in 8 races. FR America series we seemed to have  mechanical issues some when we figured them out, we had Fast Time of the race at  Mid-Ohio and finished with couple top 5 finishes against a stellar field from all over the  world. 

In 2022 Austin raced in SCCA Pro Series Formula Race Promotions in both the F2000  and Atlantic Championship series. He took on a new car for 2022 the Ligier F3 to  defend his Formula Atlantic championship title. Austin would take 6 of the 10 wins with 3  second places and 1 3rdto clinch the 2022 title again. In the F2000 series he took 2  wins and only finished off the podium 5 times in 2022 to repeat as the Vice Champion in  2022. In the SCCA we raced in the FX and Formula Atlantic races. At the Runoffs we  finished 2nd in the FX class and 3rd in the Formula Atlantic class.

In 2021 as a rookie Austin won a total of 10 Formula races this year and 21 podium  finishes. He added awards and Championships which are listed at the end of this letter.  His biggest accomplishment is the podium finish at the SCCA National Runoffs at the  Indianapolis Motor Speedway. At the age of 14, he was the youngest driver to ever  stand on the podium at the SCCA National Runoffs as well as the youngest to be on the  podium at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He was the youngest driver to win a Formula 

Atlantic and a F2000 race with SCCA Pro Series FRP. Winning the Formula Atlantic  Championship with SCCA Pro Series FRP made him the youngest champion in the FRP  Series history.  

A little more about Austin is that he is currently in the 12th Grade and is a National  Honor Society student at Adena Local Schools. He is a Freshman at Ohio University  studying engineering. Those around him characterize him as a smart, fun loving,  dedicated, and big-hearted kid. His studies always come first but when he is not doing  that you will find him working on his cars or practicing on his simulator. He also enjoys  volunteering at the local church food pantry with his grandparents. Austin is a local 4H  member and is planning to take small engine mechanics as his project for the coming  year.
