Great job salvaging that race, top 5! I had a terrible one, had a gig last night and have been learning songs all week. Just learned the track last night (this morning?) after the gig. Got lucky at the beginning staying in your draft a couple laps but I was literally falling alseep at the wheel and couldn't keep up, and made a bunch of stupid mistakes and blew that buffer I had built up. Had no itentions of fighting with you when you went by, I just didn't have the speed. :(

Thanks Jason, yea that's the nature of a draft track unfortunately. I was just barely having onto your guys draft and was able to pull away from the guys behind. I was pretty comfortable with that. Unfortunately the couple incidents that slowed me down enough to get the guys behind to catch back up put me back in a fight I had hoped to not be in, lol. All and all I can't be too sad about how I finished, I believe I finished where I qualified. Maybe I could have done a bit better if I had attacked Jeff again and not waited for the last corner, hard to say though.

It's incredibly frustrating to have my race end so quickly. I said I was done for the rest of the season when the same thing happened at Belle Isle. I had such a great start to the season that these last two races ending on lap one makes it all the more frustrating. Not to mention what happened in the FF1600 race that runs just before the SRF race. The frustration has been building as the season comes to an end and it hasn't been very fun.
