Racing career

In 2013, Lawrence competed in the Trans-Am Series with Miller Racing in a Dodge Challenger in the TA2 Class where he claimed victory in eight of the championship's ten rounds en route to his first professional championship.

For 2014, Lawrence took an additional seven wins and a second-straight TA2 class championship with Miller Racing. In 2015, Lawrence returned for a third season with Miller Racing in TA2 where he took four more victories and led the championship heading into the final round at Daytona International Speedway where he, after starting 26th due to a red flag during qualifying, passed 15 cars in the opening three laps before he was forced to pit with mechanical issues, effectively costing him a third-straight championship.[1]
