GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • HANNAH GRISHAM secured AE Victory Racing’s first pole position with a 1:52.9 qualifying lap, then anchored the No. 120 Toyota Supra GT4 to the team’s maiden overall WRL victory Sunday alongside MICHELE ABBATE and LAURA HAYES.
  • SARAH MONTGOMERY delivered crucial opening stints in both races for the No. 119 entry, helping secure a 1-2 finish Sunday despite Saturday’s drivetrain failure that dropped the car to sixth after emergency guibo replacement.
  • Development driver BRENNA SCHUBERT showcased significant progression under coach ASHLEY FREIBERG’s guidance, posting the No. 119’s fastest lap Sunday while improving consistency and car control despite challenging tire degradation conditions at Thunderhill’s abrasive surface.
  • The two-car effort marked only AE Victory Racing’s second event fielding multiple entries, with seamless pit execution and strategic fuel management proving decisive as team owner Erin Vogel’s squad demonstrated elite-level endurance racing operations.
