What a nice comeback from a sure podium in week 1. And another strong finish for Joe 1/2. I had a super fun GT4 race and sure felt the pressure from a Alfredo Oyague. He was so smooth and catching me every lap. I had to make sure that traffic was my friend. He has been taught by a master, Eric Oyague, who was my teammate in my 2nd season. I learned so much from him in a few weeks ,so I knew Alfredo was coming.... P2 was a bad race. I tried to capitalize on a mistake by another driver, and that met with an avoidance spin. Then after working a pass for most of the race on that same driver, I got passed him cleanly in traffic, a YELOW FLAG came out one corner later I lifted for the track worker coming towards me with YELLOW FLAG waving, and was spun from behind by, guess who? Rules, rules, rules. Also welcome back Scott Gaarde. He is such a strong racer, good guy and has figured this track to a science , we are lucky to have him as our team leader on our "Rookie Team". Lets get back to racing! First I must say GREAT JOB DAVID! What a nice comeback from a sure podium in week 1. And another strong finish for Joe 1/2.
