Excuses:
- 2nd time running this track, so there is still some more pace to be found.
- Tons of traffic in the morning sessions. Lots of black flags, and then oil on track.
- First day cut short
- Overnight parts got me back out at the end of the day the next day for a bonus session but alignment was way off and thus pace was too so wrapped it up and went home


Huge thanks to Concept 3 Performance , Counter Space Garage and Racecomp Engineering for all the support and keeping me on track this year!
