Race report
USA G2: Dubai on Oct 25, 2007
Car: Porsche Bi-Turbo . Class: G2. Start: 3. Finish: 7. Laps: 22.

Well, my race didn't go as I wanted it to, but I had a blast none the less. I was able to qualify 3rd and was hopelessly out numbered by BMW's. I kinda got a lousy start after I failed to slip the clutch enough at the start, but I was able to retain my 3rd spot after a very "busy" turns one, two, and three. The following lap I made it into 2nd, but that was short lived. I had a brain fart going into one of the last turns the following lap and went from 2nd to 12th.

Racing back in that pack was pretty intense. There were about 5 or 6 cars lined up nose to tail. It was the first time I had to drive defensively and protect my position from the guy behind me, while trying to pass the car ahead of me. A mosler and I banged doors a little bit, but thankfully neither one of us lost much time.

My apoloiges to Tom. I was the first car that started the whole chain reaction of him getting slammed. I was making my way through the final turn and saw the BMW start to turn him around, but there was no where for me to go. Chaos behind me insued.

After things settled down, I was able to make my way all the way back to 2nd, but unfortunately I had to pit for tires (I think my spin early on may have forced the issue). Rather than risk a blown tire, I pitted for fresh meats and returned back to the track in 12th. I was able to run down 5 cars in the final 10 minutes to finish 7th
(Hmm...I finished right in the middle of my highest and lowest positions).

I had a blast and am looking forward to Brno.
