Looks like I picked the wrong race to sit out and it looks like you've gotten comfortable with the Motons!!!!

Congrats on your win, certainly seems you earned it!

Great footage, but over-edited, need more than two turns at a time!
I think Brumm could use some sportsmanship, thinks nothing of slamming into your lane and shutting you down.
Glad you got him in the end.

Just a love tap. No damage to car, just a black rubber doughnut.

Gums, I had to get the 30 minute race under 10 minutes to post on Youtube. I will upload 3 more videos in 10 minute increments to let evrybody see more of the race.

Evan and I race against each other all the time. The track was hot and we were all on older tires. We race close and have a great time. I do not think he did anything out of the ordinary.

Nothing intentional, just seemed that he had to get so close to the edge to pass you, that after each pass he lost it. Your car seemed much more under control.

Yeah, loved the RR tire locking up. You don't see that too often...

Does he go by "E. Batman Brumm"?
If so, I hope he's going to be a little nicer at Summit Point this weekend, although I'll be in SuperCup.

Tim, great race, congrats. I think we had about 10 lead changes between the four of us.

Everyone replace your fuel pump - mine went out while in the lead (short lived I'm sure).

Three wide under the bridge for the pass is fantastic
