The Almanac of Builders Who Race

Journal · Series

People who make companies, and race.

Each profile follows one person from a first lap to the races they run now: how they got in, what they drive, and why they keep going back. It is built from their own interviews, writing and posts. Every quote links to its source. Every result is checked against the official classification.

An Entire Vacation in a Weekend

From Miatas to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in seven years.

Be a builder who races.

Every driver in the Almanac started with a first lap. Stratos is that first step, done properly: a private Grand Prix circuit for up to 15 drivers, your car prepared and waiting, and a professional racing driver beside you from the first lap.
