Full circle at COTA. 🏁

This is where Colton made his MotoAmerica Talent Cup road-racing debut earlier this season. Seven rounds later, we came back approximately 7 seconds faster.

We closed out the weekend with P6 in Race 1 and P6 in Race 2 — a solid finish to a season built around learning, adapting and getting faster.

Same rider. Same track. A whole season of experience in between.

That’s what development looks like.

The final checkered flag of 2026 may have fallen for the DCR team, but the work doesn’t stop here. More to come as we recap the season and start building toward 2027. 🤘🏼

The universal language of motorcycle racers. 😂

Somewhere in all those hand signals is a faster lap.

Day 1 in the books at COTA. 🤘🏼

P7 in Q1. A little Texas heat, a lot of work, and we’re just getting started.

Q2 + Race 1 coming up today. 🏁

Josh Herrin asked the question… so we had to ask Doug. 👀

What made racing in the early 2000s different — and was it actually better?

Doug’s take. Now we want yours. 👇🏼

What do you miss about that era — or what do you think racing does better today?

Well… that wasn’t supposed to come off. 😂

Anyone recognize what was brought back to the pit at VIR?

Tell us what it is + where it belongs. Wrong answers encouraged. 👇

Official merch update from our smallest DCR representative:

📦 SHIPPED ORDERS: Heading out tomorrow!

🏁 LOCAL PICKUP ORDERS: Ready for pickup beginning tomorrow during normal Doug Chandler Performance business hours.

We can’t thank everyone enough for the support you’ve shown DCR and our first merch drop. Seeing our gear make its way into the paddock, garages and homes of people supporting this program means a lot to all of us.

And judging by our model’s review… we’re calling it two thumbs up. 😂👍

Thank you for being part of DCR! 🏁

A little look inside our weekend at VIR — the work, the conversations, the preparation, and everything in between.

VIR challenged us in more ways than one. Between the heat, humidity, a demanding track and constantly changing conditions, this weekend became as much of a mental test as a physical one.

Race 2 added one more challenge — a sudden downpour followed by the Virginia heat left us trying to navigate a track that was somewhere between wet and dry. Finding confidence and pace in those conditions proved tricky, but that’s racing.

We spent much of the weekend battling around P10/P11, and while it wasn’t the weekend we came here hoping for, we leave VIR with something just as important: experience.

Another track learned. Another set of conditions experienced. More information to take back to the shop and another opportunity to identify where we can improve.

Development is a process.

We’ll take what VIR taught us, get back to work, and carry it into COTA. 👊🏁

Apparently the rider still has to do some of the work. 🙄😂
