The fast Dane is doing it up big time in GTD
With just three races remaining in the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship season, few would have pegged Christina Nielsen as the GT Daytona championship leader at this stage.
Yes, that would include Nielsen herself.
But the 23-year-old Dane has starred in her first full season with TRG-AMR North America, and by way of consistency and continuously improving pace she finds herself in this spot.
“Going into the season I didn’t think that would be the case!” Nielsen told Sportscar365. “To be in this position with TRG-AMR is just amazing. The team has done a great effort.
“I was very happy I did the four long distance races last year and now gone into a full season. I felt it was a great way to do it, get familiar with the series, but I didn’t think I’d be leading the championship at this point.”

My mom loves watching her and I do as well. The car is amazing and part of the reason I’m looking for a V8 Vantage, also because 50/50 weight distribution as well. But damn she is good.

I wish I could afford one race prepped. I would love one actually but, sadly I’m a middle class college student with a $5/hr job...

Um, $5/hr sounds illegal...? I’m a poor recent grad who just happens to theoretically work one of the *sponsors* of most of the team’s cars.

Clearly she is making the car work for its keep. Look at the poor thing’s tongue hanging out like that.

You’re a driver?

Not really, I have 0 track experience but I have taken a lambo on track

Then wouldn’t that be at least 0.01% track experience?
