GRRL! SUMMARY:
- ASHLEY FREIBERG made an immediate impact in her first weekend with the upgraded Supra, showing pace and confidence from her opening laps while helping establish the team’s competitive foundation. Her smooth adaptation to the EVO2 proved crucial as AE Victory built momentum through practice sessions.
- ALANA CARTER delivered the performance of her season when it mattered most, tackling her first-ever Road Atlanta weekend with composure that belied her experience level. After learning the flowing, technical circuit alongside her teammates, she fought through brutal cockpit temperatures to bring home a P2 finish in Sunday’s grueling 7-hour finale.
- SARAH MONTGOMERY anchored both races with veteran leadership, laying down competitive qualifying times and completing the longest stint of the weekend at two full hours in punishing heat. Her endurance and strategic racecraft helped AE Victory secure back-to-back podiums after their heartbreaking Daytona disappointment where contact dropped them from podium contention.
- The weekend showcased exactly what we love about women’s endurance racing – pure driving skill under pressure. While guest driver LAURA HAYES had to retire early due to the unrelenting heat, the core trio proved they belong at the front with flawless execution across 15 hours of racing in some of the most challenging conditions of the season.
