Good sprint, no problems, took lead, flawless race till the end, no mistakes, and even a good time of 1:08:98.
Feature was crap. AlPayson spun ESPN, that's why FF overtook him real quick. Sadly, I just didn't fit there through the gap, and got stuck behind him. He blocked me in the straight, imo a bit too much swinging left right left right. A got a bit angry about that, and one lap after that after trying to carry as much speed as possible into the straight, I apparently run slightly off touching the grass and spinning. I 1st thought I bumped into him, but after watching the replay I saw I touched the grass. There was 8-9 seconds gone. I was pushing then and catching up to you guys, but I lost my rhythm somehow and spun once again, loosing same amount of time. After that the race was over, decent pit entry, 2-3seconds lost there in minor damage, no tire change. After pit I couldn't warm up my R2's properly, sliding around a bit and not being able to keep a consistent pace. I did occasionally run some very low 1:09s but I also ran a lot of 1:10+. You guys were 13-14s infont of me running stable times and I couldn't close the gap, definitely not with those tires, which btw also got very thin at the end. Overall shitty race, I was really hoping to take home a Feature victory as well. I didn't push much at the beginning saving my tires and warming them up gradually, aiming at just running consistent times without spinning etc. Safe strategy, with the plan being to push it after my tires are at decent temperature, because I knew I was slightly faster then the field, so as long as I run stable times and push a bit after tires are hot, I was hoping to get on the top of the podium but oh well...
