Spec Corvette Race, Auto Club Speedway, Sunday, June 5 - Race #2 of 2

I had good control of this race. I lead every lap the whole race, except for the last 100 feet to the finish line. You can't see it in the video, but I had Steven Libby #66 and Marc LaCorte #73 in my mirrors the whole race. On the last lap on the last turn we caught some lapped SuperMiata traffic. I got held up for just a moment by one of the cars and Steve Libby got a run. Crowding up to the wall was just a frustrating and futile response, but it was the only thing in the tool box at the time. He crosses the line a car length, .106 seconds, ahead for the win. He strategized great at the end of the race and crossed the finish line when it counted.

Great run overall. The new motor sounds very strong

That dude at the end looked like he hit the No2 button!!!

No, he just got a run when I lifted for a moment due to the lapped Miata in my line on the last turn. That is all it takes.

good racing man, hate to see a good run end like that though.

[@AlvakaNet]

Yup! But in a way that makes the racing all the sweeter. I have thought 100 times what I will do differently next time I am in that position. All is good! Thanks for the good sentiments though. I know what you mean.
