Hailie Deegan and I are starting our trip to Texas and then heading to Toyota for SEMA. After a long wait at baggage claim, we’re off to the hotel and then a Toyota event.

At Toyota, it’s cool to see old-school trucks with modern tech, like the Ivan Stewart truck. After that, we’re flying to Vegas for SEMA for a few days to handle business and attend NASCAR in Arizona.

We filmed a podcast about raising sponsorships and life as a teenager. Be sure to subscribe to our Deegans podcast for new episodes every Wednesday.

At SEMA, we’re signing autographs at the Odyssey Battery booth. It’s great meeting fans, some who came all the way from Texas for their honeymoon.

I met an inspiring 80-year-old racer who won his class. It’s motivating to see him still passionate and racing at his age.

After SEMA, I’m back home for a quick gym session before heading to the NASCAR race this weekend. We’re looking forward to watching the race and enjoying the hospitality from the track.
