LAP #1:
@cesarr64 and
@Noob01_lmdead lead the grid around Turn 1 which was kept clean by all drivers.
LAP #1 - Lead Change
A really well executed Turn 1 by
@Noob01_lmdead allows him to move ahead of
@cesarr64 as we head into Turn 2.
A great start by a determined
@JDMKING13 who started in 7th place and might have outsmarted the field early on. Whereas most drivers opted for the inside line, naturally congested with drivers wishing to avoid incidents, he takes the wider line with additional speed and gains 3 spots. Heading into Turn 2, he finds himself in 4th spot.
LAP #1:
A really good, high end sequence by
@Worst_Driver from the 11th spot entering Turn 10. With the field still bunched together entering the braking zone from the right side of the track,
@Worst_Driver sees an opening on the left and out-brakes
@CdnSweetTee (with slightly dirty tires)
@llNovall and
@Yugofan and manages to sneak his car just behind
@Bologna_Duc on the exit without leaving a single scratch on any other car.
Hopefully one day, my race-craft will allow for such attempts - LOL
LAP #2:
@cesarr64, running in 2nd would end up sideways between Turns 2 and 3 which allows
@JDMKING13 to move into 2nd and
@bublyman into 3rd.
@cesarr64 would avoid a disaster but the error would drop form from 2nd to 5th.
LAP #2
An incident occurs at the chicane of Lap #2. As traffic is making its way through the chicane,
@The_Antman_ car would come into contact with
@socalnatv's car which would lead to
@socalnatv spinning.
@socalnatv would drop towards the back of the field.
LAP #4
Lots of action with this group. Entering Turn 3,
@cesarr64 gave a slight push to
@Bologna_Duc who shows great control to avoid disaster and quickly gets himself back in the action while giving visibility issues to the cars behind him.
LAP #7:
By Lap #7,
@Noob01_lmdead has built a nice lead for himself but it's
@JDMKING13,
@bublyman and
@Mac1032763 who seem to be having fun out of the 2-3-4 spots.
@llNovall is just behind them and rounds out the current top 5.
LAP #7:
Just a little further back,
@Worst_Driver spins coming out of Turn 4. He'd drop from 9th to 13th but mechanical issues would lead him to retire a few turns later. A huge blow to the WKM Racing Team.
LAP #9:
The field is a little more spread out than in the 1st race.
@Noob01_lmdead's car is visible at the top.
@JDMKING13,
@bublyman and
@Mac1032763 are still hanging out together just ahead of
@llNovall.
@Bologna_Duc and
@The_Antman_, in 6th and 7th are getting on their brakes entering the hairpin.
LAP #12:
A couple laps ago,
@Mac1032763 made a strong attempt on
@bublyman but it was well defended and with the benefit of the inside line,
@bublyman managed to conserve his spot. Picture here is
@bublyman with a strong attempt on
@JDMKING13 but it is also well defended and with the help of the inside line,
@JDMKING13 managed to hold onto the 2nd position.
In the background, we can see that
@llNovall has been replaced by
@Bologna_Duc.
LAP #13:
@Mac1032763 finally gets his man. He's been staring at the back of
@bublyman's car since Lap #1 and has patiently waited for the opportunity to present itself to take the position. On the straight of Lap #13, his patience is rewarded.
LAP #13:
Several unforced errors in this one and unfortunately, it's
@bublyman's turn who goes out a little wide in the twisty section of Turns 8 and 9. He'd drop from 4th to 9th.
LAP #15:
With a little more than 1 lap to go, spots on the podium are still up for grabs and not much separates positions 2 through position 6.
LAP #16:
@Noob01_lmdead captures his first checkered flag of the season. He uses a favorable starting grid spot to run a mistake free run to give himself a win with a comfortable 9.7 second win.
@JDMKING13 and
@Mac1032763 will join
@Noob01_lmdead on the podium.
The
@The_Antman_ would once again log the race's Fastest Lap (his 5th such award in 6 races) with a time of 2:00.162. He edges out
@socalnatv's 2:00.221 and
@Bologna_Duc's 2:00.328.
