Summer Series #5

We decided not to run the 160 tonight to focus on the 120.

We started in the dreaded P4 slot. Its hard to get down but I fought and did my best but ended up coming down in last (6th). I ran in 6th all of the race working hard to set up and complete a pass on the #5 car. I tried multiple times but never felt comfortable enough to complete the pass. The car was a little lose and as I attempted the pass once I spun out. On the restart I was aggressive but still didn't make the pass. As the race got close to the end I made one attempt at the pass which was good but lost too much speed while doing it and the 5 car crossed me back over. Finishing the night in 6th felt like a defeat because the car had so much speed but it was a great opportunity to learn about how to work with a car that is a little off on handling. Also I realize after watching the race back that I needed to be more aggressive to completed the pass as I was fast enough.

I will continue to learn and improve.
