TL:DR - The motorsports community is filled with the most generous, caring, and supportive people you will ever meet in your life.

Having made a bunch of very serious suspension changes to the car over the winter I was really excited to get the car on track for the first time since October of 2015, where I lucked in to winning my first 2 races.
