Round 4 - Kobalt Tools 500, Atlanta

Round 4 of the series took place at the very fast Atlanta Motor Speedway in Georgia.

I started off the race weekend with a mildly satisfying practice session, where after my 10 laps I was 14th fastest with a time of 31.407.

Qualifying went not very well for me as I qualified 13th with a time of 31.286.

Fuel consumption was the important factor in this race. I made my way up to 10th before pitting for fuel on lap 52.

I managed in those laps to pass a few cars and get into the top 4 before having to pit again on lap 90 for fuel!. So upset was I that I failed to notice the speed limit and got a black flag for my trouble!

I did manage to claw my way back up the field to finish 13th.

I led 0 of the 114 laps.

I was now in 2nd place in the overall standings 24 points behind..
