Larry Chen's escapade at gridlife Road America started as a mere vlogging mission but quickly escalated into a high-octane thrill behind the wheel of a brand new Supra courtesy of Toyota. With a mere 27 miles on the clock, this Supra was fresh out of the box, begging to be put through its paces. Chen, accustomed to more horsepower under his right foot, had to extract every ounce of performance from the stock Supra to keep pace with the beasts on the track.
The event at Road America was a symphony of automotive delight, where car culture reigned supreme over the music festival headlined by Dead Mouse. Gridlife, a mecca for petrolheads, offered Chen the canvas to create content that would induce FOMO in even the most jaded enthusiasts. From capturing car features to immersive imagery, the goal was clear: to showcase the essence of this motorsport festival to the world.
Amidst the chaos, Chen seized the opportunity to pilot Von Gittin Jr.'s demo car, a moment that promised adrenaline and challenges in equal measure. However, navigating the confines of a car set up for a taller driver proved to be a Herculean task, with boosters serving as makeshift cushions to bridge the gap between Chen and the controls. The highlight of the weekend came in the form of Jason's audacious backward entry in his R31 Skyline, a move that pushed the boundaries of sanity and ultimately led to mechanical mayhem.
