Round 3 - Atlanta Motor Speedway


Round 3 of the series took place at the very fast Atlanta Motor Speedway in Georgia.

I started off the race weekend with a very satisfying practise session, where after my 10 laps I was 2nd fastest with a time of 31.660.

Qualifying went well for me as I qualified second with a time of 31.711..


In the race I found myself in the lead after the first of the 59 laps.

Fuel consumption was the important factor in this race. On lap 25 of 59 I was informed by my pit crew that I was halfway on fuel. Now 25 is less than half of 59 so I decided to pit with 24 laps remaining. I managed in those laps to pass a few cars and finish 8th.

The question is why yet again did no one else have to stop for Sunoco fuel?


I ended up in first place in the overall standings 35 points ahead..

I led 11 of the 59 laps which got me the 5 bonus points.
