That event was held in july 2009.

About 30 racers on the grid.

I use the #111 car in class D modified. This chassis is very well tuned and the engine is fresh. I use Dunlop slicks with 8 heat cylces in race #1 and new in race 2 and 3

Day #1

I qualified in 2min 16,000 sec in fourth place. 

At very start the rear end of the car felt a bit weird and loose. I almost spun it on two occasions, then felt a wobble at the RR corner, then smoke etc...

My mecanic convinced me to come in and play safe. I did. And I was told by tech that they were about to black flag me for smoke....I had cooked the RR wheel  bearing.......DNF     

Day #2;

We changed the 2 rear wheel bearings and then the car felt great in practice.

 I gridded early and had two laps without traffic on fresh slicks, and it worked fine. I qualify 3rd in 2min 15,45 sec, a probable DM lap record at this track.

The race was thrilling and scary because  when we started the track was dry ( everybody was on dry tires ) and then we had to compose with some intermittent rain showers.... 

Finished 3rd overall and first in class because Alan had to lift having no wiper, and no Rain-X !

For the 3rd day;

No qualification for this feature 45 min race. My 3rd place in yesterday's race gives me the 3rd spot on the grid

I aim for a 4th place overall and 1st in class because three fast CM cars and drivers should go to war in front of me.

Mark's spin in turn #5 will change the course of this race. Peter was very close to the rear bumper of Mark during the spin and had to take evasive actions through the grass. That will put me in the lead temporaly in front of Allan L who is closing fast on me till they throw a double-yellow to pick-up Mark's car because it would not start.   

Then, I will screw the restart being in fith instead of third gear     and give the lead to Allan. Peter will put pressure on me producing my 2 fastest laps of the week-end. Proving a fresh DM can hold its own against a tired CM ( Till the S54 to come restore the usual hierarchy.....).

His laptimes were better than mine though and Allan was taking advantage of the situation, creating a bigger gap at each lap. 

My crew then started to give shit because I was 1st in class by some 20 seconds and they felt my battle with Peter was putting a lot of stress on the machinery....

Of course they were right, and I let Peter around giving him a chance to get back at allan. I then chose a rythm that would protect my lead while being easier on the car. 

Brain over balls has to make sense sometimes....I guess....
