“It felt great to a fifth ARRC Championship in a row especially after the difficult
2023 season. I was hoping to win the SARRC Championship as well but the
season ending race was canceled due to the hurricanes that swept through the
southeast this fall. I was unable to challenge for the championship and ended
up second by only three points.
This race starts the 2025 championship so the team is off to a good start and
hopefully we can bring home the 2025 SARRC Championship” said Phee
