"I believe that the folks back at Black Rose Racing will be able to breathe a sigh of relief - well, sorta - after today's race. I'm really happy with where the car was most of the race, and a top 10 isn't too shabby, I suppose. We were close to the top all day, battling with Windross, and even our teammate Birmingham.
"Also, I need to send a shoutout to Angel for helping both Birmingham and I out there. She was able to keep pace even as a lapped car, so we were able to break away. If only that caution never came out... Anyways, the car felt really good up until the end. I don't know what happened, I guess I just worked the tires way too hard after the second-to-last pit stop. They just wore off, and I lost a bunch of spots. Going wide in that one corner didn't help at all either.
"I'm also rather surprised that the race finished as quick as it did with all of the carnage. I don't know what was going on with either the cars or the track or just the drivers. Who knows. It was just rather odd having all of those offs in the long sweeper, as well as Harsk crashing into the pit wall twice. But the latter doesn't really surprise me all that much, to be honest. I am really glad he, Draco, and Cristobal walked away from that one wreck, though. It's just a testament to how well these cars are built and how safe they are.
"Points standings are good right now, 7th is a good place to be. If we can feel in some really good results, say, some podiums, in the next few races, we should be in contention for the championship. I'm really confident heading into Dover, because it's one of my home tracks, and it's just a blast. Driving a STICS IndyCar there is going to be mental, but I can't wait. Roll on the Monster."
