On-Track success
SLB 2025 marked a breakout debut for FASTx and Black Flag Sarcoma Racing in Global Time Attack. Despite delays that compressed the build into just six months, the FASTx team delivered—with a 2:12.089 lap in the very first session, instantly breaking the two-year-old Limited Class record.
What followed was a weekend-long battle for the top spot. Driver Callan Spence ultimately reset the record with a blistering 2:10.326 lap—a time that would’ve earned NASCAR pole at COTA in 2023.
We finished P2 in our first-ever Limited Class outing, with the brand-new Lotus Elise running flawlessly all weekend. Our preparation paid off, giving Callan the confidence to push hard and focus purely on going fast.
Off-Track success
Beyond lap times, the FASTx and Black Flag Sarcoma Racing garage became a fan favorite at Super Lap Battle 2025—thanks to a standout car, a meaningful mission, and genuine community engagement.
From day one, we welcomed donors from SynovialSarcoma.org into our garage, giving them a behind-the-scenes look at how this program supports their outreach. Fans and racers dropped by to meet the team, learn the story, and share the moment—especially the kids who got to sit in the Lotus for photos, wide-eyed and inspired.
The Limited Class battle became the headline story on the Global Time Attack livestream, with over 14,000 daily viewers tuning in. Our collaborative media push surrounding SLB 2025 reached over 1 million views across social media, bringing massive awareness to the Synovial Sarcoma Foundation.
Featured across major time attack outlets and enthusiast pages, this project drew attention not just for performance—but for purpose. And in the end, that’s what made the weekend truly unforgettable.
