Racing in my first USF2000 season with DC Autosport brought significant achievements, including the team's highest-ever fourth-place finish at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and a front-row qualification at Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park. Throughout 2024, we secured multiple top-10 finishes, marking substantial progress in my racing career.

post-season, I had the opportunity to test with Czabok Simpson Motorsport in their Porsche GT4 RS Club Sport at Putnam Park. The sports car's handling impressed me, particularly how it managed weight transfer during turns - quite different from my USF experience. We're currently discussing potential race opportunities for the upcoming season.

Off the track, I helped develop JK Racing in the Kenyon Midget Series, providing setup guidance and coaching services. Our success led to team expansion, now accommodating two drivers - BJ Shaw and Evan Patton - for next season.

For 2025, I'm joining Benchmark Autosport, a new team operated by my father, Kevin Houk, with Don Conner continuing as our engineer. This strategic move allows for better resource allocation and stronger engineering focus.

This season wouldn't have been possible without crucial support from Team USA Scholarship, Binkley's Kitchen and Bar, Wings and Wheels Foundation, Cornerstone Environmental Group, Horizon Equine Integrative Medicine, Little Red Door Cancer Agency, R. Oberly Law, and Big Check Race Fans.

Initially funded only through round 8, additional support throughout the year enabled completion of the full season, including the Portland GP. These partnerships have been instrumental in creating opportunities for my racing career development.
