Free Practice 1 went pretty good, starting off with a good base line set up. We started making changes with suspension and trying to get the bike more comfortable. Qualifying 1 started off decent. We were trying to up our pace right off the bat, but we were not going much faster, so we tried some changes to the bike. It was getting better, but we it wasn�t perfect yet, so we tried some more adjustments at the end of that session. We were sitting in 11th. SATURDAY Qualifying 2, I went out and got in a good group of fast riders. I was feeling good, but I made a mistake and they pulled away a little. I was just riding by myself. After the red flag, I went out with Gabe Miller from the TOBC race team. We were pulling each other around for the last final laps. I ended up qualifying 8th. Race 1, I got a decent start off the line. In the first turn Josh Serne past me on the outside. In turn 2, I was going to try and pass some people around the outside. I ended up getting passed by another rider. Into turn 5, I was going to pass another rider up the inside, but wasn�t close enough. I chose to hold off until the back straight and try to draft by. I got through turn 9 and 10 really good and clean and drafted by the rider in front of me. During the rest of the race Gabe Miller and I were battling back and fourth. We were kinda slowing each other down. It was Gabe miller, Josh Serne, Jody Barry, and two other riders battling for 5,6,7,and 8 position. I was going to try and fight my way up on the 6th lap, until one of the riders in my group ran wide and tucked the front in the grass. A couple other riders around the track crashed and the race got cut short. I ended up 8th for that race. Hoping I would get a better result in Race 2.
Race 2, I had a really good jump off the line, past a rider into turn 1 around the outside. I past another rider around the outside of turn 2. I felt I was in a good spot setting me up for the laps to come. I stayed in about 6th. I was going to draft by another rider going down the front straight and into turn . I couldn�t get by and came in too hot and tucked the front. I was super bummed, because I couldn�t finish the race.
