Driving for Leland

DGD 2026 will be the fourth event we have driven in honor of my best friend Leland Roussa. I lost Leland to suicide over 3 years ago with no warning. After that crushing lost, I went through my own mental health journey while learning to pick up the pieces. Distinguished Gentleman's Drive has given me a positive outlet for the grief that I carried for so long. This year's event will mark the first time that we both drive the event in our own classics. DGD has always been a couple's event for us, and we have been blessed with love and support from all of our friends, family, and sponsors. Please consider supporting Men's Mental Health and Suicide Prevention by sponsoring the Leland Roussa Memorial Rallye Team!

I'm Driving for Men's Health in The Distinguished Gentleman's Drive

Default Blog

The Leland Roussa Memorial Rallye Team was founded in 2023 after the tragic loss of my best friend to suicide. Searching for purpose and resolve, my wife and I committed to participating in Distinguished Gentleman's Drive every year that we are able, to raise money and build awareness for this just cause. Please join me in remembering my best friend in the very unique way; be sponsoring our team in the Distinguished Gentleman's Drive!
