First massive congratulations to DJ on the championship well deserved mate
For the race I practiced a lot again for this race and with the Wed's fun race being there last week that really helped to get into the groove of the track
In qualifying I went out and the car felt alien to me It felt as though all the rubber had gone I just couldn't get the car to slow down then I realised I had loaded my set up the second run was ok but well of my pb and then on my 3rd run it all came together and I had a clear track and did my pb which got me pole and with the rolling start ( great call by the way DJ ) that helped calm my nerves abit for the start of the race
The race for me was nerve racking for the first few laps all I could see was a sea of green in my mirrors im a lot slower in the first few laps with heavy fuel so I was well happy to be able to hold 1st then me and Dave edged away a bit and then Dave was all over me lucky the extra power and top speed of the eagle gave me 4 tenths on the straight s which was just enough to hold him of in the corners the pit stop went near perfect I had to adjust my fuel I used more than I expected but regained the lead again after all the pitstops but still had Dave on my tail one slip and he would have been by me like a shot and the he caught one of the not so rubbery tyres and dropped back 9 seconds so I relaxed a little and then nearly caught the tyre myself on the next lap anyway I kept it on the road to the finish its a bit like buses you wait all that time for one to come along and 2 come along together its bean a great season thanks to all who make it possible thanks for all the work behind the scenes Admins its much appreciated and thanks to all the drivers its a pleasure racing with you all
