Braselton, Georgia
Braselton, GA – WRPMotorsports driver Willie Phee delivered a strong
performance at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta, finishing second in race
one and claiming victory in race two during rounds 22 and 23 of the
SDARRC Championship Series.
The weekend began
with a challenging
mixed-group
qualifying session
on Saturday
morning, where
Phee posted the
second-fastest
time in class and
third overall,
securing a starting
position on the
inside of row two
for the late morning
race.
“This was the first time this year the organizers had us mixed in with
Spec Racer Ford, and it made qualifying a bit more challenging,” said
Phee.
In Saturday’s race, Phee maintained a consistent pace throughout the
14-lap contest, holding third overall and second in class from the start.
He finished just half a second behind the class leader.
“My pace was consistent throughout the race and I was never able to
make up time on the first-place car,” Phee commented.
On Sunday, Phee once again started from the inside of row two for the
16-lap race. Despite a
brief move into second
place at the start, he
settled back into third
overall as the field sorted
out through turn one.
What appeared to be a
repeat of Saturday's race
took a dramatic turn
when a full-course
caution on lap 10
bunched the field. The
restart on lap 14 set up a
two-lap shootout. With
Spec Racer Fords mixing
up the order, the leading ITS car was collected in a tangle under the
bridge at turn 11, allowing Phee to move into the lead and secure the
win in class.
“I thought the full-course caution would help me, but there were several
Spec Racer Fords between me and the first-place car,” said Phee. “I
could see the first-place car coming into turn 10A and, unfortunately for
him, he was collected by one of the Spec Racer Fords. I managed to
clear the carnage and win the race.”
Special thanks go to Andres Mendoza for trackside support throughout
the weekend.
The next event for WRPMotorsports and Willie Phee will be held at
Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama, on August 23-
24, 2025.
