The off-season (also known as sim racing season) is winding down, and we've secured the bag with a packed Gridlife Gold Pass. We hope you'll come out and say hello if you're near these events! Gridlife festival events are sensory overload for car nerds....
2024 was an exceptional year: it was my first full season w2w racing, and I got to do it with my best friends while traveling the country with a remarkable series called GLTC. We're doing it again in 2025, so we wanted to document some notable statistics and...
It has been my first time at most of the tracks I've raced this season. All have been great in their own way, but I've certainly enjoyed some more than others. How do they stack up? Let's dive in.
We've competed in several rounds of the Gridlife Touring Cup season, with our E90 race cars proving reliable despite minor issues. We're continuously improving our racecraft and vehicle performance. While GLTC's growth is exciting, contact incidents have been a concern.
I recently competed in my first Gridlife Touring Cup race event, which was a dream realized. The competition, friendliness, and atmosphere were everything I hoped they would be.
NASA Southeast hosted a 3-day test and race weekend at Carolina Motorsports Park (CMP) in February. I had convinced Carlos to drive up from Florida since our first Gridlife event of the season is at CMP in April. The plan was to test and develop our GLTC cars and improve...
Carlos and I have been preparing our E90s for GLTC competition in 2024. We've been patiently waiting for the 2024 rule revisions to come out before we made any significant changes, lest we have to undo them after the rules come out. Though not yet official, the proposed...
I wrapped up my first iRacing league series with GridLife a couple of weeks ago. For an intro to the series and how the first two rounds went, check out this post. For this season wrap-up, I'll touch quickly on how the last two races went, opting to...
Although we're not quite to the racing off-season, Gridlife has been hosting an iRacing sim racing league in which my friends and I have been participating. We're halfway through the four-week series, and each race has been a blast. Just like Gridlife festival tour weekends, each...
It's nice to be back after taking August off from RE. Some work was done on the #73 E30 (which is for sale!), but I mainly focused on prepping the E90 for test days and GLTC next year. Sure, the car came to me basically in race-ready condition,...
Today marks the one-year anniversary of RE, and we're thrilled to share some exciting news about the upcoming race season. Carlos Mendez and TJ Lathrop are taking a couple of BMWs racing in GridLife Touring Cup.
