Our first step into the States was a tumultuous one. Darrel, Sandy and I took on Race 1. We all started in the back and had a bumpy ride towards the front. We all managed to make good ground while mostly avoiding massive destruction. Race two added Scot and damage. Darrel reigned at the front as I came within a few seconds by the last lap. Scot struggled as he remembered the track but still stayed out of the dumpster even though his car was wrecked. Sandy also hung around the top 20. Race three and we were all in the back except Scot, starting 13th. I managed to push to the top to take the win. Sandy came up through the ranks and passed all those who couldn't keep their car running. Scot halved his position and took 18th. Darrel was right around the top ten after some mid race scuffles.
We now push across the country to Mid Ohio, the famous CART course. A bit trickier than Laguna Seca. Probably around a 6-7/10 if I recall.
