Default Black Sheep Racing 2018

Proud to celebrate the 2018 Pirelli Trophy West Bronze class champion (Porsche GT4 Clubsports) Laura Ely. Laura is team principal and #1 driver for Black Sheep Racing.

Laura has had an amazing year. She was featured on the television show "Mobil 1 the Grid". After winning the Bronze class in PTW, she was invited to join the all-female driver lineup for the Jester and Babbett/Flying Lizard Audi R8 LMS GT4 car in the grueling NASA 25 Hours of Thunderhill this December. Her team started P9 and ended up P4 overall and first in class! She then got to celebrate with the entirety of the global Porsche Motorsports drivers community in Germany.
