The first 4 opponents can be passed on the first lap, at Turn C. I dive to the inside with a little too much speed, and end up giving 2nd back to the FTO on the exit. I bump and pass the FTO while taking the looping right hander of Turn E, and I'm 0.891 seconds behind the PRELUDE as we cross T2. I pass it on the inside as we enter Turn K, and I end up going wide on the exit of Turn L, bumping into the wall. I use my best efforts to block the PRELUDE while the FTO also makes its move. I manage to stay in front, by 0.096 seconds as we finish lap 1.

From there, it's not that close of a race. I nudge the left wall inside the tunnel, but from there it's a clean line to the finish.

I ended the race with 84 miles on the odometer.
