Zenith Racing Series
In 2026, I will be making the jump in the all new Zenith Racing Series with Round 3 Racing as part of their Junior Driver Program. Along with my teammates, we will be competing across a 7 weekend championship across the United States in the #4 R3R Sebeco NP01 Prototype.
Round 1: Sonoma Raceway
First weekend for myself in the car and my teammates and I showed amazing pace all weekend long! We started Saturday in 3rd and I brought the car home from 2nd into 1st place to take the first victory of the Zenith Racing Series! Sunday didn't go our way, however, as we suffered a power steering pump failure on top of a broken axle. We still managed to fight our way up to 5th place, securing crucial points for the championship.
Race 1: 1st | Race 2: 5th
Round 2: Barber
Barber was filled with many ups and downs. We started Saturday's practice session as the fastest car on track in wet conditions by over 2 seconds. After starting the race in 3rd, I was handed the car in 2nd and made the pass for the lead, where my teammates brought the car home in 1st place! Unfortunately, due to a post race inspection out of our control, our race winning car was disqualified. We set out hopes up for Sunday's race and did just that by finishing in a solid 2nd place finish after the team, my teammates, and I executed a flawless race. We knew we had the pace and speed and were hungry for more at VIR.
Race 1: 9th | Race 2: 2nd
Round 3: VIR
VIR was the first 12 hour weekend for the team and it didn't disappoint! We came into the weekend feeling confident as all three of us have driven Virginia International Raceway before! I drove an amazing first stint to hand the car off in first with great strategy from the team. As we got closer to the 6-hour mark for points, I was handed the car and defended to hold onto 2nd position. In the end, we executed everything perfectly as a team, but it unfortunately wasn't enough to fight for the win, bringing home another 2nd place finish! We knew the win was upon us again and prepared really hard for the next weekend at Road America.
Race 1: 2nd | 2nd
Round 4: Road America
Road America proved to be another mixed weekend. We started off Friday by qualifying in 3rd place and saw myself start the race Saturday. I fought my way up to 1st and my teammates delivered brilliant stints to bring the car home in 1st place since Sonoma! Sunday, however, was a what could've been race. We were fighting for 1st place once more but as the hours went by, the transmission began struggling more and more. When I finally hopped in the car, I drove two laps before unfortunately retiring since we started losing gears. Even though Sunday didn't go as planned, we left Road America with confidence since we showed top pace since the start on Friday and knew what we had to do to deliver the same result at Watkins Glen.
