This was one of thoose weekends when things did not work out great but in the end it turned out pretty good.
After having issues with the front wheels touching the control arm I qualified 26. So that was not a great start for the weekend. But it turned out to be a good thing because I got to run against Ryan Tuerck 2nd in points and managed to move on. So that gave me a boost to be able to catch up for the 2nd and 3rd spot for the final.
I went up against Kondo in Top 16 and after a “one more time” I moved on to Top 8.
In Top 8 I had to battle Ruji Miki. Great driver and his car was so much quicker on this course and he ran good the whole weekend. We had a good battle, but Ruji moved on. There is still a chance to bring home the championship but that’s a long stretch.
I had great support from all of the fans and also the Northern California Viper club. They came out with a bunch of sick vipers so that was cool.
We are still fourth in the over all standings and look forward to Irwindale!
