Round 21 - Pocono Pennsylvania 500


The large tri-oval at Pocono played host to round 21 of the series.

As with recent rounds in practice I was fastest with a best time of 58.238

Qualifying didn't go so well as my inexperience at the track took it's affect, I posted the 41st fastest time of 58.084 although it was quicker than my practise time.


After the green flag dropped it took me 22 laps to make my way up to 10th when the first yellow arrived. It was a bit early to stop for fuel so I waited until lap 38 to make my stop. I came out in 12th and in the remaining 22 laps I managed to claw myself back up to 6th.

My best race lap was 57.800, my fastest of the weekend.


I led 4 of the 60 laps

I was now 1st in the Championship standings 448 points ahead

I had 2 races in hand to qualify for the chase.
