Today went pretty well!

Qualified for the first race today with a personal best time - but that still put me 5th on the grid (of 11 cars). Dang, its competitive!

I got a good start and followed the car in front of me into the clear while a few other cars got held up behind a car that didn't get a good start. This moved me up to 2nd for a bit but fell back to 4th when a couple of the faster cars caught and passed me. I did put all four wheels off into the desert at the exit of Turn 9 but was able to get it back onto the course and drive it away with out losing any spots.

In the second race, I started 4th and and finished 4th. I had an epic battle with the #318 driven by fellow forum member bkovac who was in 3rd. I stayed on his bumper the entire race and tired to make a pass but couldn't get it done. That is the kind of racing that makes it really fun.

No video today in either race. I just couldn't get it to turn on. Will try updating the firmware tonight to see if that might fix the problem.

One more race tomorrow!
