Qualifying - 3rd

 

19.70 seconds.

This was a spectacular lap for us.  We had horrible lap times during practice, and made a drastic change just prior to qualifying.  The change paid off!

Heat Race - 7th  (15 laps - PROs only)

 

We started in 11th place on the inside of the 2nd-last row.  At the start we fell back to last (13th) because we were stuck in position while the outside groove moved ahead.  But then we moved to the outside groove and made the 2 positions back to 11th by lap 4.  The race was a non-stop tight clump of cars - really tough to pass.  We even tried going 3 wide in the corner a couple of times (and lost a position trying!).  By lap 13 we'd made it to 7th place.

 

 

 

Main Event - 1st  (30 laps)

 

Started on pole and held it flag-to-flag!  It was fairly uneventful, if you don't count that the #55 of Gary Lister was on our back bumper most of the race!  We played it cautious though - tried not to give #55 any good passing opportunities. 

There was a yellow flag on lap 11.  We almost blew the restart, and #55 got beside us down the front straight and into corner 1.  But we pulled him a bit through corner 2 and by corner 3 we were fully in front again.  Whew!  There was another yellow flag a lap later.  On the next restart we didn't make that mistake again. 

We held the lead till the end, while #55 and #42 battled for 2nd.  1st race.  1st place!  YES!!!  :-)

 

 

 Brent and 1st-place trophy!
