Started 7th, got a decent start and up to 5th after the first corner.
Great clean racing by everyone off the grid.
Bumped up to 4th after
@disturboed served his drive through.
Lap 4, coming up to T6 and notice
@dj2ca and
@Bounty05 running off track. Sweet!
Made my way through to 2nd but then got tagged by bounty coming back on track.
Was lucky enough that I was pointing the right way after my spin and my car was sitting on a little path thing.
Waited for the track to clear and then jumped back on only to witness even more carnage as half the field was getting wiped out.
Managed to clear everything and put myself up to 3rd and a few seconds off the
@Jim_aka_The_Man and
@ned83
As those two were swapping leads, I was able to catch them but then caught a tiny bit of grass braking into Dunlop (T10).
Not wanting to take jim out, I took to the left and ended up half spinning.
Came back on track with
@stilesy right behind me and battled on with him for a few laps until I managed to pass him into T1 and then he had a coming together with bounty.
That gave me some much needed seconds to concentrate on catching the leaders who were about 3 seconds ahead.
Managed to claw that gap right down over the space of 10 laps or so.
Once I got on the back of jim and ned, they had a little contact at Dunlop which allowed me to take the lead for all of 2 laps which I threw away by spinning at the last corner....
Got going again in 4th just behind ned and then it was another awesome battle between the two of us.
Going two wide into the first corner, two wide into Dunlop, nose to tail for the rest of the laps with no contact at all. That's what gives me goosebumps.
So held on to the last step of the podium which I'm happy about.. Could have possibly been a few steps higher, but no matter the result, a great race all round.
Video incoming.. a little long, but didn't feel like cutting anything else out..
Only the first half has music, so if having a backing track isn't your thing, it won't be on for too long.
