Georgia Tech Wreck Racing dominated the autocross portion of the Grassroots Motorsports $2017 Challenge by more than a second in their Subaru-powered Honda Insight. This was not their fastest run of the day, but it gives you an idea of the car’s performance.

Hey, that's me working station 1. 

I assume John Thomas was the driver.

Doesn't look nearly as quick as you'd expect...but you can see the Insight's secret: Rotation, rotation, rotation!

This was one of their earlier runs. They definitely dialed it in with the last couple.
