I move up to P2 just as we approach the first corner, and I bash the RX-7 into the junk. Unfortunately, my disposition gets upset and I end up wide into the dirt. The 3000GT moves into the lead, with the Evo by my side. I finally take P1 as we exit Turn 5, but I end up giving it back to the Evo and 3000GT through Turn 7.

I'm into P1 on the exit of Turn 1, and by now the RX-7 is part of the lead pack. It edges past me at Turn 7, and I manage to pass on its inside just after T3, where I'm down 0.007". I'm up 0.170" at the end of Lap 2, and I allow the RX-7 to pass again so I can bash it at the first corner...

I send it into the junk and take the lead, with the 3000GT in P2, 2.099" behind at T1. I cruise from there to a comfortable victory, as the RX-7 makes its way back to P2.

I finished the race with 19474.9 miles on the odometer.
