We love film and family, tech and travel. We like our plates full, will sleep when we’re dead, and would spend our last $5 on the best meal in town. He’s the ‘why & the what’ and I’m the ‘how & the when.’

We’re a perfect team and a party of three, doing big things and trying not to sweat the small stuff.

2020-2025

From Indoor Karts to the International Stage

In July 2020, we left everything behind to head to Europe and pursue something completely different. Taking first mover advantage in a new vertical of the sport, Ellis developed his skill & ability among the best drivers in the world.

June 3, 2026

Bringing the Renegade Home

After nearly 5 years on the road, 2024 brought the Renegade home to the USA. Nitrocross brought his career to a new level, and primed his future to lead a revolution in the sport. 2026 and 2027 are bringing opportunities we couldn't have dreamed of when this journey began.
