Putting in countless hours, listening to a driving coach and putting his head in the game time and again is really paying off for 13-year-old Steven Aghakhani. This time, Aghakhani took to the Willow Springs Raceway where he faced off with several worthy opponents, some of which came equipped with 900+ horsepower vehicles. Considered the underdog of the event, the 13-year-old was a bit nervous, which is rare for him. He’s usually incredibly comfortable behind the wheel thanks to extensive training and a natural aptitude for racing.
Aghakhani, and his US Race Tronics team brought out his Lamborghini Gallardo Super Trofeo for the event, and he reports hitting a new personal lap time of 1.24.5. He’s always been a Lamborghini fan and loves the Gallardo for its grip and downforce. He came out on top at Willow Springs Raceway, which is something the young driver is known for.
According to his father, Armik Aghakhani, it looks like his next adventure will be Formula 1 training in a Grand Prix vehicle and will practice with the iconic Porsche Martini Racing team.
