Toby was lucky to be a guest of Gallagher at the Detroit Grand Prix.

He flew up early Friday to make it to the autograph session. In addition to autographed pictures he also got a few die-cast cars, his cap, and a Team Penske flag signed by the drivers.

There were too many highlights during the weekend, but top of the list was meeting Scott McLaughlin. Scottie even talked to Oliver and Theo briefly over video and the boys were over excited to “meet” their hero!

Toby got a great view of the action from over the pits. It was a tight race from beginning to end. Scottie started second to Alex Palou, ran well through the middle of the race until he was hit by Roman Grosjean and dropped to P13. He fought back with a few great one-track passes to finish P7.
