DRIVEN BY PRECISION.

hello. my name is JT Long. when i was born, they swapped my blood for Shell fuel.

i’m a photographer, engineer, and brother. i race go-karts, i dream of the brickyard.

i’m a student, an artist, a volunteer. but most importantly, i’m driven.

MULTIFACETED IN MOTORSPORT.

the gameplan.

  • When I was ten years old, I visited my first IndyCar race at Newton Speedway. Since then, I’ve traveled to Portland, Miami, Indianapolis; to take photos, make connections, and breathe in the burnt rubber.

  • I’ve kept the momentum going. Introducing the next generation of race fans, as well as fine tuning my craft of both film and digital photography - all while attending school for EE, like my grandfather before me.

  • But my ultimate dream has been to get behind the wheel. I’m currently racing karts, looking for funding, and trying to step up to the FIA Formula 4 U.S. Championships.
