Leadership like this doesn’t happen by accident!👏 Lucas Underwood receiving the Industry Impact Award is a direct reflection of the consistency, passion, and purpose he brings to this industry every single day. He has never been afraid to speak up, step in, and stand for something bigger than himself, and that kind of influence leaves a mark that goes far beyond one shop.

Through advocacy, mentorship, and a genuine commitment to lifting others up, Lucas continues to shape the future of the automotive industry in a meaningful way. This recognition represents more than an award. It reflects the impact he’s made and the momentum he continues to build across the industry!🔥

Fueling Connections came full circle and it only got better!!🔥

From an unforgettable night of networking at Trackhouse Motorplex to a powerful morning of panel conversations, this event delivered from start to finish. The go-kart track brought the energy, but the conversations carried the real impact, and today our panelists took it even deeper with insight that challenged everyone to think bigger and lead stronger!🏁

This is why networking matters. It is not just shaking hands, it is learning from each other, collaborating, and building relationships that actually move the industry forward. When the right people get in the same room, conversations turn into ideas and ideas turn into action!🤝

We were also honored to recognize some incredible individuals making a real difference in this industry:
🏆 Emerging Leader Award: Tristin Sweeney
🏆 Industry Impact Award: Lucas Underwood
🏆 Lifetime Achievement Award: John Hill

Your leadership, innovation, and commitment continue to raise the standard and push this industry forward!👏

A huge shoutout to Pomodoro’s Italian American Café in Mooresville for the incredible meal that brought everyone together and created even more space for meaningful conversation!🍝

To everyone who showed up, leaned in, and made this experience what it was, thank you!! Your presence, energy, and willingness to connect are what made it all come together!🙌

This is what happens when connection meets purpose!🚀❤️
