The penultimate round of the championship took place on the high banking of the fastest superspeedway of them all, Talledega.
My record on the superspeedways is not good so I was pleased with my 22nd fastest practise time of 54.840.
As usual for a super speedway I qualified a lowly 34th with a slightly slower time of 54.994.
I ran 34th all race until 5 laps from the end when I decided to try and pass a few cars (I hadn't lost the draft). Unfortunately the plan didn't come off as I received the dreaded black flag 3 laps from the end. It wasn't worth pitting as there were so few laps left. I of course finsihed last in 36th place.
I was still in the top twenty (in 17th) which is the best I could hope for as I was now 810 points behind.
