Taking a moment to look back so we can enjoy the view we have in front of us now, Chris and I have traveled long and sometimes rocky roads. From our start bracket racing at Orlando Speed World to the creation of our very first Jet Dragster, Miss Ta Fire, we have always known that this is the path that we wanted to travel. The list of people that have helped us along the way, all of the crew, family, neighbors and of course the amazing sponsors that help our teams live our dreams, will always hold a place in our heart and shop!!! How did we get here? A lot of work and some great decisions, all made possible with the support of our sponsors. We have been so blessed to partner with companies like Miller Welding, Matrix Systems Automotive Finishes, Applied Racing Components, and our newest affiliate, Florida Institute of Technology. These companies have truly enabled us to have such an impact in the racing community.
For those of you who know some of our background, you know that we recently moved from Daytona Beach to Palm Bay, FL. Chris and I have always had this dream, the dream to make a difference. This dream came true!! Located in the heart of the Space Coast, we have everything we have ever wanted!! The support of great partners and now a world class facility to build World Championship teams.
This year, Paige and I proved that #GirlPower can get things done!! We only have 3 match races left this year until we park the cars for the season. It will be a sad time as Orlando marks Marisha Falk's last full time race with LMS. She is moving on with her career and family! We want to wish her well, but you never know when she may decide to hop back in and teach us all a lesson!! Kat has finished up her second season with the teams and I could not be prouder!! She has come so far in her driving skills, giving us a run for our money all season. The newest driver, Shea, took home an Ironman in San Antonio, proving she's got the right stuff to drive these land locked missiles. But the unsung heroes? The team. Andrew Larsen, Jake Elliott, Mike Mathes, Paige Sanchez, Dewayne Hill, Corey Weigand, Brian Tocci, all of the interns working so hard back at the shop, the husband Chris and, of course, the best for last: NITRO!!! Not one of us girls could have made a single pass without you all working so hard and giving us the cars to get down the track. You guys are the rock stars! So this brings me to 2016. A lot is going on at Larsen Motorsports; a new address, new interns, new drivers, new crew chiefs, new sponsors, and of course a lot of fun.
Fasten your seat belts, we've only been running in 1st gear, get ready to drop the hammer!!!
luv ya,
e
