2014 CCS Round #7 – NJMP

Well this was just a disaster of a race day. After only 2 hours of sleep I had to wake up at 4 am to pack up to leave by 4:30. 1.5 hours later, in record time, I was on the off ramp into Millville. There was a dump and I could hear something start to drag from the trailer. Quickly pulled over only to find my gas can dumping special fuel all over the road but that’s not where it ends. Fuel had gotten on the rear tire and melted the rubber which means I now have to purchase one, not in the budget. Needless to say, this did not put me in a good mood. Arrived to the track at 6:30, slowly everyone got up from the alcohol induced slumbers. Dunlop was open early, tire on, ready to go. Practice went well, had some fun with McGlade.

Supertwins was up first. Race #1 of 4 and it was a good one. Hoffman and myself battled every lap, back and forth. Clicking off 1:32s with ease, never riding out side of my comfort zone. Hoffman put a pass on me on the last lap but I knew if I could come around the last turn on his rear wheel I could draft him for the win. Everything was going according to plan until the front end decided to give out. Low sided with 2 corners to go.
