After earning the pole position on Friday, Indianapolis native Matt Brabham went flag-to-flag on Saturday (June 17) to win the Trans Am TA class at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, driving the no.20 GYM WEED CD Racing Ford Mustang on Forgeline forged three piece TA3R wheels.
Matt shared the front row with Adam Andretti, but he never looked back, after the green flag fell, and led all 42 laps virtually unchallenged. His victory at the Brickyard is his second win of the 2023 season.
“I want to give a big thanks to everyone who came out to the track today, it’s so good to see the crowd here at my home track,” said Brabham from the top of the podium. “Most importantly, I want to thank my CD Racing team. It’s so good to be a part of this team. They did an awesome job all weekend; we had really fast cars. To get a 1-2 at a place like IMS with Chris is fantastic. Thanks to the team and to GYM WEED. We also can’t forget Adam Andretti. He would have loved to be up on the podium and he certainly drove like he deserved to be here. It’s a shame he broke, but I think Adam really proved something this weekend.”
Congrats to Matt and the entire CD Racing team. And thanks for trusting Forgeline to carry the load!
