The Lionheart Challenge headed overseas this week to the UK to race at the Donington Park Racing Circuit! The sky's of Britain decided to cause problems with the drivers when it started to rain which shortly became a thunderstorm, which race officials deemed unsafe for the drivers to keep racing. They threw the red flag but because the race hadn't hit the half-way mark, the race wasn't over!
The next day drivers returned to the track after the storms passed to finish the race! Ryan Otis and Dustin Wardlow would battle up front to try and score much needed points! Before starting the race, Warldow would lead the championship by 14 points over second, which meant Otis needed to score the most amount of points he can, which he did by winning the race after a long fought battle with Wardlow! David Wardlow would finish second, Carter Kundinger would finish third, Jason Galvin would finish fourth, and Ron Hacker would finish fifth to round out the top 5! And with Ryan Otis winning the race, he would move into second in the championship, only 11 points behind Dustin Wardlow!
