Thorny Toad Racing Team is a Big Island–born dirt track crew racing in Hilo, with operations based in Mountain View 

- the home of Fruity Puppy skin cream - 

where the real work happens long before the green flag drops.


We’re not here to look busy
We’re here to run hard, race smart, and represent Hawaiʻi with pride.


Home Track: Honakaʻa Park (behind the Hilo airport)
Operations Base: Mountain View, Big Island
Car: #63 Orange 1974 Chevy Nova
Driver: Scooby


This is grassroots racing done seriously — built on preparation, loyalty, discipline, and the hunger to win.

Scooby is the heart of the operation and the calm in the chaos.

Focused. Controlled. Fearless when it counts.

Behind the wheel of the 

#63 orange ’74 Chevy Nova

Scooby drives with instinct and precision reading the track, managing the slide, and keeping momentum alive lap after lap.

On dirt, confidence wins races.
Scooby brings confidence every single heat.
This is grassroots racing done seriously  built on preparation, loyalty, discipline, and the hunger to win.

Rick keeps the car planted, fast, and reliable. Quick hands, sharp instincts, and pit work that saves races when seconds matter.

Papo runs strategy, timing, and race-day decisions. Calm under pressure, clear-headed in chaos, and always thinking two moves ahead.

Jeremy keeps the entire moving machine alive. From hauling gear to making sure the car, parts, and people land exactly where they need to be — he handles the logistics that make race day possible.

No chaos.
No scrambling.
No excuses.

Just smooth transport, tight timing, and the kind of reliability that wins races before the engine even starts.

Kailah captures the heart of Thorny Toad Racing Team — speed, dust, adrenaline, emotion, and legacy.

She’s behind the lens turning:

Race nights into cinema

Pit moments into history

Wins, losses, and grind into story

Her footage doesn’t just show racing —
it makes people feel what it’s like to be there.

Erv represents the soul of Thorny Toad Racing — grit, attitude, resilience, and Big Island flavor. A fan favorite and the symbolic heartbeat of the crew.

Ryan keeps the entire operation moving — planning, coordinating, and making sure the team, equipment, and car arrive race-ready.

He also invented Thorny Toad Face Juice in his lab at Rooster Island. 

Ipo brings charm, warmth, and personality — connecting fans, sponsors, and community with the fun, welcoming side of the team.

As the CEO of Fruity Puppy, Jessie handles the public voice, storytelling, sponsors, and community presence — making sure the team’s image, energy, and opportunities keep growing.

The #63 isn’t just a car.
It’s a signature.

Classic American muscle.
Dialed suspension.
Track-tested power.
A look that hits hard before the engine even fires.

Built to slide.
Built to charge.
Built to pull away in the corners.

This isn’t random branding.


It’s a product that makes sense in a heat-heavy, dust-filled, pressure-packed environment.


FACE JUICE BELONGS ON THE TRACK


Dirt track racing is:

Heat

Sweat

Dust

Oil

Pressure

Adrenaline

Thorny Toad Face Juice helps drivers, crew, and fans feel:

Refreshed after dust and grit

Cleaner after oil and sweat

Cooled down in high heat

Mentally reset between heats

Sharper and more confident under pressure

Think of it like:

A cool breeze in a bottle
A reset button after chaos
The feeling of staying fresh when the track tries to wear you down

Just like you clean a windshield to see clearly —
you clean your face to feel clear, sharp, and ready.

Confidence is part of performance.
Freshness is part of focus.

That edge matters.

PERFORMANCE IS MECHANICAL — BUT ALSO MENTAL


Winning isn’t just horsepower.
It’s mindset.
It’s composure.
It’s how you feel when the pressure spikes.

Thorny Toad Racing Team brings the speed.
Fruity Puppy brings the refresh and confidence boost.

Together, it’s a partnership built on:

Performance

Culture

Local pride

Big Island identity
