Lowell and Carson Orud are a father-son racing team from the Pacific Northwest. They got their start in 2014 when Carson bought a 1999 Mazda Miata and decided to autocross it at Portland International Raceway. A year later he got his dad hooked on wheeling the rear-wheel drive sports car around cones at an event in Packwood, WA.

After competing up an down the west coast, and at the SCCA Solo Nationals in Lincoln, Nebraska, the father son duo finished the 2018 season for SCCA Oregon Region's Street-2 class on the podium with 1st and 3rd place finishes in overall points. In 2019 Orud Racing Team expanded to Tuner Car (hornet) racing at South Sound Speedway in their 1997 Honda Civic hot hatch, and Carson Orud got his first win in door-to-door competition there in his rookie year. 2020 has brought continued success with their first national-level trophy at the SCCA Packwood Champ Tour driving the Mazda in autocross competition.
