Bridged one solo off the front by driving the bus for about 1.5 laps. I was able to make the effort and recover in two laps. I know I could work a lot harder. I sat in the top 10-12 most of the race. With 4 to go Tommy Lucas touched by back and said "Let's do This" I planned to be has lead out and made my way to the front 2-3 with 2 to go. on the final lap I took the lead back on the second turn and drove hard up the uphill and saw I had it strung out. The swarm caught me on the 2nd to last corner at the end of the long downhill straight and a few took really bad lines causing me to have to lift but I came off the final corner in the top 10 and was able to finish 7th. Tommy won the Sprint but because he took as spare wheel inside the Free lap 5 to go, he was Given a DNF - whole nother story. ***
