We’re thrilled to celebrate, Ethan Jacobs (#99), our Collegiate Racing Series driver, for claiming an incredible 2nd place finish at the 2025 SCCA National Championship Runoffs in the Spec MX-5 (SMX) class!

The SCCA Runoffs are widely regarded as the pinnacle of amateur racing in the United States, bringing together the best drivers from across the nation to battle for championship glory. Finishing on the podium in SMX, one of the most competitive and talent-rich fields in all of club racing, is a monumental achievement that speaks volumes about Ethan’s focus, consistency, and racecraft.

This result is more than just a podium finish, it’s a testament to the caliber of talent being cultivated through the Collegiate Racing Series (CRS). Our mission has always been to provide collegiate drivers and engineers the foundation to compete and excel at the highest levels of motorsport. Ethan’s success on a national stage is proof that this vision is working.

Congratulations, Ethan, on this outstanding performance and for representing CRS with excellence, professionalism, and heart. The entire CRS community is proud to see you proving that the next generation of racers is here and ready to compete with the best.

We’re leading.

Join us!

Best,
