• Through my twenties and thirties a significant amount of my life was spent around motorsports. If there is one thing that I’ve learned through all of my years in motorsports, it’s that winning racecars don’t just ‘happen’. They are the result of passion, desire and drive. They are the result of long days and sometimes […]

  • Unity. I love that cars bring people together at a time where nearly everything else is pulling us apart. It often feels like all of the forces around us are working towards creating divides. Politics. Mandates. Racial tensions. Religion. Ideologies. Hate, anger, frustration and mistrust are fragmenting us as people. I see so many lines […]

  • Dream big dreams. When you give your passions to God, to use for His Kingdom, you can be led to dream big things. This right here, the Lamborghini Urus, is the kids’ big dream. The more time we have spent at car events on weekends over the past year, the more they have seen cars as […]

  • Every time I see this orange Acura NSX and its sunny disposition around town I smile. The vivid orange color just seems to exude joy and happiness to me. Whether it is parked in a lot or cruising a boulevard, you cannot miss it. Its presence draws you in. When we allow the ‘color’ and rythm […]

  • Downforce. The McLaren Senna has an insane amount of it. You can have all of the power you want at your disposal, but without downforce to hold you to the road, power can lose its potency. We need downforce in life, too. Things that keep us rooted and planted to optimize our output both in […]

  • The in-crowd. Today was another Italian Cars and Coffee event at Carlock Motorcars Nashville. Parking the Alfa Romeo amidst the likes of some stunning examples of Ferrari and Lamborghini motorcars can leave us looking and feeling a bit out of place. The amazing thing, though, about being around other car people is that everyone belongs. It doesn’t feel like a hierarchy, rather like a […]

  • This 1999 Saturn SC1 was the vehicle of many adventures and stories of my youth. Growing up in Williamson County, it definitely wasn’t the nicest, nor fastest vehicle around…but to me it was everything. Nearly every penny I made in those years found themselves reinvested into this car. I made much of that base level […]

  • Unique. While supercars certainly hold a special place in our heart, I really enjoy seeing different cars of all makes, models and vintages. Even moreso I love seeing how owners express themselves through their automotive canvases. From bumper stickers and accessories to paint, wheels and performance parts…there is so much creativity and artistry to be […]

  • Whenever I am in a parking lot I tend to seek out the safest spot that will protect our car from the inadvertent door dings and fender rubs that tend to happen when we are in proximity with others. I’m much less concerned with finding the closest or most accessible spot, rather the safest one […]

  • Check Engine. This light awakens such an anxiety in so many when it illuminates on the cluster. Unfortunately, it is now glaring at me. Reminding me that something is wrong. I’m left with two choices. Deal with it, and stomach the associated costs. Ignore it, keep driving and postpone the financial implications that this light […]
