Inside Track: Danny Soufi February 22, 201915-year-old Danny Soufi doesn’t remember a time that he didn’t love cars; in fact, his first word was “Audi.” The son of a Longhorn Racing Academy driving instructor, Soufi remembers first heading out to the track when he was just four, long before his feet could reach the pedals. As the youngest person ever to win the Spec Miata Championship, Soufi, now a high school student, is on his way to pro racing.
