American Ryan Norman won the championship winning eight of the fourteen races. Keith Grant had eight second-place finishes but only a single win and finished second in the championship. His brother David joined the series after four races, but captured five wins in the last ten races and finished third in points.

Why this record matters

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Feb 3, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q23057849. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2016 and 2017.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources.
