Lars is our team founder and engine mechanic. He is currently pursuing a degree in aviation maintenance with a concentration in mechanical engineering. His story in mechanics began when he started a small bike repair business in Oaxaca, Mexico. His family was missionaries, and the people in the village had a need for a skilled bike mechanic. He did this for a year and found his passion in wrenching. That next summer, he was given the opportunity to be an automotive mechanic in Oregon. After that, he applied for his degree and began watching car videos every night. He has now had hands-on experience working in powerplant labs and an internship in airframe electrical. Even though he has yet to buy his own car due to tuition costs, he still loves his work!

Grant Becker is our team driver. He is currently pursuing a degree in professional flight with a concentration in aviation maintenance. He has always had a passion for racing. During the covid-19 quarantine, his friend introduced him to F1, and he was hooked. He spent those months watching races from the past decades and learning about the F1 legends. After that, he sought opportunities to race on a low budget. Simulation racing on the dirt roads behind his house with his brother's truck or after work as a landscaper at a local go-kart rental garage. Now his dream is a reality with the go-kart races coming up this October.

Matt acts as our assistant engine mechanic and fabricator. He is currently pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering. His story began doing work with his dad on various projects, learning many fabrication methods. Once he left home for college, he saw the opportunities Letourneau held to further these skills. He took hands-on classes and joined his school's automotive society, learning how to work on cars and internal combustion engines. He applies these skills with Jamin and Lars, helping weld, tune, and add input when brainstorming.
