i had a great race!
so much fun.

i also got tristans setup, im assuming on mistake. i tried it before qual started but found that the set that i had made i was faster with... and my tire temps werent 150+ in the front!

Had a spin early on that put me from 11th - 18th. but fought my way back to 9th, and on the last lap, caught p8. had minimal contact mostly because i was out braking people... i knew i had time to stop, but people were way slowed down by the time that i got up to them, so im sorry for any contact that was on my behalf.

About mid race, i noticed that my front brakes were really taking a beating (59:41 f:r split) so i backed it off nervously to 50:50, and found that i could actually brake better.

on the last lap, john and i came out of the final corner at a similar speed. i might have been a little bit faster. he did a good job of protecting his line going into t1, but he left me room, and being right on his tail on the last lap, i wasnt about to let opportunity pass me by. he locked, i locked, and fortunately for me, i was able to hold the car into t1.

all in all, i had a great race.
i look forward to the next one :)
