Round 12 - Bristol Motor Speedway

The question as the trucks rolled into Bristol was whether the recent upturn in my form continue at Nascar's toughest short track.

With a lot of cars on track at one time setting a fast time in practise proved difficult but midway through the session I managed to set the 4th fastest time (17.841).

In qualifying I went a tad faster (17.364) and managed to get pole position.


In the race I led for 56 of the 70 laps. This time I managed to keep my cool until the chequered flag. Another win! 

Leading 56 laps gained me 10 bonus points. My fastest racing lap was 16.961 which was faster than both my practise and qualifying times.


I was now up to 4th in the standings.
