Les has worked hard and put the effort in to get where he is today. Heck, he's delivered pizza in his race car! His 2023 has been, in his words, smooth. He was at the track for 33 weekends in 2022 and it was a hectic season. As Les has worked on time management, it's helped make things smoother. Plus, he's driven three new tracks and three new cars this season - which he has enjoyed. Les just drove across the country in a Celica to compete at Grid Life at Laguna Sega. We talk about T-Pain, what Grid Life is all about and his experiences driving a car with fixed seats and no cruise control. Do all Skittles taste the same? We discuss it! He's won at Daytona and is looking forward to tackling the Indy road course at some point. Why does Les bring champaign to every race?
