Honda Fit GD3: A Final Lap Victory in Gridlife Sundae Cup at Road America (2021)

Flashback to October 2021 and achieving my first win ever in Sundae Cup since starting in 2020. It was a two day weekend, and Kyle Carstens with Hard Times Racing held the lead for the entire duration of the weekend up until the moments shown. Lots of setbacks in the form of hitting a box spring during the 14 hour road trip, getting three black flags out of the six sessions, and battling alignment issues from the rough kerbing, but it obviously all worked out in the end.
