Didnt feel like risking all my marbles on a BAR series sprint, and then i remembered my frame was already cracked going into the race and i settled for a safe pack finish.

First race in CA, after a year of racing in NYC... still getting adjusted to "Who's who" and which teams to mark and such. Look forward to seeing you all soon
