I got my first win! Before you get excited there was very little competition haha. It was a small turnout because the weather was iffy. It was only me and two true beginners in the sportsman class. So it was more like practice runs than actually racing but that’s fine with me. I got my PB consistency at 95.3%! I was really able to dial in a few of the turns that I traditionally struggle with. My nemesis, the far left corner I still miss the apex more often than not but I just have a hell of a time seeing it. Maybe I need stronger glasses.
13.5 4wd buggy I came in last in all the qualifiers but winning wasn’t my goal there. I let the pack go and my goal was run smooth and stay on the lead lap. I did get lapped by the leader in a couple races but I was able to hold onto it once! I’ll call that a win. Again, low turnout so I played my cards differently.
I’ll probably take the same approach next Saturday in the 1st round and see how it goes. I'm guessing it’ll be a better turnout because it’s a Saturday so it might be better to just send it with the group. We’ll see!
