Round 21 - Auto Club (California) Camping World 300


Round 21 of the series took place at the Auto Club Speedway, previously Fontana in sunny California.

I was fastest in practice with a time 41.991 after my 10 laps.

In qualifying I was able to reproduce my form and duly qualified in pole with times of 42.083 and 41.991.


In the race I managed to be around the front until lap 34 when I stopped for fuel until the race's first caution period. All the remaining cars pitted under the green flag on lap 50.

So the question was could I hold onto the lead that stopping under the yellow had given me while the others were on fresher tyres?

Not to worry though as I managed to hold on and eventually win the race.

I led 54 of the 69 laps to earn 10 bonus points.




My best lap of the race was 41.955 which was faster than I qualified!

I was 6th in the standings, 150 points behind the leader (less than a race now).
