Before we wrap things up, I just wanna take a second to give a massive shoutout to the crew! None of this would’ve happened without you guys! The planning, the setup, the late nights getting cars ready, the early mornings, and everything in between. You’ve all put in serious effort to make this weekend run smooth, and it showed 9th place overall!!
From getting the cars lined up, supporting each other & keeping things fun but safe, every bit of it came together because of yous.
We’ve built more than just a team, we’ve built a family. The support, the passion, and the love for what we do is what makes NXTGEN shine.
To the rest of you who came out, thank you for showing love and supporting the crew. Your energy keeps us motivated to do this again and again.
Let’s keep the momentum going, keep repping the crew with pride, and keep building something real together. Big love to every single one of you and as always, drive safe and stay loyal to the team!
Thanks to for hosting such an epic event
