The Monster Mile that is Dover played host to round 23 of the series.
As with recent rounds in practice I was fastest with a best time of 26.998.
Qualifying went well as I posted the fastest time and secured another pole position (27.030).
I kept the lead from pole for the majority of the early laps. On lap 23 a lapse of concentration almost made me spin out however I did manage to catch it and only dropped to 5th place.
I took advantage of a yellow on lap 30 to stop for fuel. Of course I restarted at the back of the pack so for the next 60 laps it was a case of catching up.
This track is a one mile oval so I was always in traffic and collisions were inevitable. It was no surprise when I received the black flag on lap 50 which of course sent me back to the tail end of the field.
There was still 40 laps to go so I wasn't out of it yet. I carefully began to move back up the field. I did manage to get to 2nd before the laps run out. A good finish in the end.
My best lap of the race was 26.899.
I led 22 of the 90 laps.
I was now 4th in the Championship standings 95 points behind the leader.
