Congrats to Mark and Scott Leon.
San Jose was brutal. Slippery track which wouldn't build up heat in your tires so you had to be cautious the whole race. I would be surprised if anyone made it through this race without a spin. So if you were mister perfect chime in....lol. The short distance of the track meant you always had to deal with traffic. And I did my best to get out of the way.....lol. But I'll take the spot I got as this was again an Audi track. Now we head out to some interesting places. Check the schedule ;D

No hard spins ,but plenty of wall kissers. My steering lock was just enough to make the hairpin, If I hit the turn in point just right. It was a strange race for me. I knew that I had nothing for the Audi's,even double stinting my tires. I was clear of 5th most of the race and just was racing the track. I found rear end grip and could get the power down ok, but I could not get the front end to stick enough to carry any speed through any of the sweepers. Lost a lot of time there. I did hit the wall hard letting Scott through once and hit hard on the front straight. There was a spot about 3/4 of the way down that would hook you if you were to close. The Street courses are hard ,but they are a lot of fun and a true test of your concentration.
Congrats to Mark and Scott

Congrats to Mark and Scotti for their Wins. Pretty uneventful night for me, no spins but, I did happen to collect Scotti L. as he was slowing to let me by , but I was too close to him and caught his car and spun us both, Sorry Scotti. I ran it pretty conservative after last weeks debacle, and just wanted to finish the race. Looking forward to some longer tracks. Thanks for the room drivers, Cya's next week..................

I lose concentration when I get out by myself. I forgot to down shift hit the tires and knocked my front wing off, forgot to turn off fuel so I got damage and fuel time. I guess with making 2 stops I was lucky to get 3rd. I did spin once and cause havoc sorry Dale I waited for 2 cars did not see you and got a little twitchy as you got between me and the wall. Hope it did not cause too much damage. Congrats to Mark and Scotti. Mark was crazy fast winding that audi up like it was a 2 cycle.
