Rene came on to our radar last summer where through a friend of the shop, he wanted to come hang out and see what racing was all about during one of our race weekends. He volunteered to work car support just to learn and as the story goes, it was downhill from then!
We’ve continued to grow and Rene joined our team in April as a Race Car Technician and has been having a blast since!
Rene has been a car technician for the past 11 years, initially working for a small mom and pop shop in Southern California, helped maintain/repair city buses for the LA County, worked on high pressure valve blocks in oil refineries, was an air plane technician apprentice and most recently worked at Honda and Maserati dealerships.
His uncle worked for most of his career with Carol Shelby at Shelby of America, so motorsports is in his blood!
When Rene isn’t doing race car things, you’ll find him working on his golf game on the links.
Please join us in welcoming Rene to the team!
