Pretty nice. Seemed like you were a bit slow didn't have as much angle but you clipped the points nicely.

later in the day my car did look like it was going way slower. when i packed it up to drive to buffalo wild wings with everyone, it wouldnt start. i blew it up during the event at sometime. but when it was in boost i didnt notice it. the only time i noticed was when i mis shfted following odi, and kept kicking clutch straightlining trying to catch back up... towards the main sweeper you just see his car pull away and i wasnt lifting... i did better than i expected i would. lol i just wanted to atleast place 5th. lol

the judges told us in drivers meeting. speed is cool, but never let speed sacrifice your line. so i found my line and stuck to it. i entered 3rd a few times, and still held the line, but my clutch wasnt having it (or so it felt) so i just stayed top of 2nd. ...and really the only dude entering third was josh guild and david briggs.
