I qualified with a 1'28.760, 3.487" quicker than P2. I used all of the wallrides, but stayed off of the bottle... I'm such a saint.
Anyway, I launch horribly off the line and quickly fall back to P5. I manage to retake the lead by wallriding the first corner, and for the rest of the race, things go swell. Most of my laps are in the 1'26 to 1'27 range, and I'm gaining about 2-3 seconds per lap... This, of course, includes wallriding Turns 1, 4, 5, 9, and 10. The AMG runs in P2 until it pits on the 9th lap, and the Toyota 7 and R390 pass it.
Towards the end of Lap 8, I start thinking that I can catch the Camaro to put it a lap down. Unfortunately, I'm too late in using the Nitrous, and it manages to begin its final lap a couple of seconds before I end the race with 3 bars of Nitrous.
I ended the practice session with 3391 miles, and ended the race with 3423 miles on the odometer.
