I was surprised we were running 1:35's because we were jacking each other in every turn. I got lucky when Sean blew through turn 2 on the last lap, and the other guy we were running with blew three. I thought for sure they would be trying up the inside of every turn to the checkered flag, so I just tried to take it as deep as I could in each turn. I got to the last turn and caught a lapper, and was like, "OH CRap"! I made a good decision and took him on the outside to collect my first piece of wood in fifth place.
Also, Bill had a good day in Formula Forty, and we think we collected enough points to get 2nd for the season in that class, So a Huge Congrats to him.
A big Congrats to Sean who had a good season, and will be sporting a white plate next year.
And Gus, WOW dude, you had an awesome year. It was great getting to know you, and watching you lay waste to the Am. field. We will be rooting for you next year. You deserved it, a keep up the hard work.

I am lazy, so I copied and pasted this from Sofla. I would also like to thank the guy in the Middleweight SS race who bounced off of me. Had it not been for that, I may not have been angry enough to ride as hard as I did to get fifth.
