Description

120 Laps at Thompson International Speedway for Round 7 of the RRUK Truck Feeder Series on Iracing. This is one of those tracks i just cannot seem to get a handle off, not one of my favourites to say the least. I start in 4th Place with John Jarratt on Pole. Lap 5 i managed to get up to 3rd place after a small bump on Andy Baker. On lap 10 again i make contact with Andy Baker's left rear and he unfortunately spins out which gains me 2nd place but it is not a nice way to gain a place and was not intentional, I thought i had the run on him going into the corner but i was mistaken and picked up a Yellow Card and -10 Points penalty. Now i had Tom Stanley in front of me in 1st place. Some close racing between myself and Tom until lap 20 when i made my move and took away 1st place. I then led for 23 laps until overtaken by the faster and better driver on the night, Steve J Richardson. I held 2nd until Lap 88 as i needed to pit due to tyre wear and exited the pits in 3rd place. With fresh rubber the chase was on to catch Andy Baker in 2nd place. I passed four cars quickly to get back to the fight for 2nd due to the fresh tyres but then the ride came to an abrupt end! On lap 104 i had Ronald Baker and Andy Baker racing hard in front of me i was about a car length back when they touched coming out of Turn 4 which sent Andy Baker into a spin, even though i was very close to them i managed to slow down my car so that when i collided with Andy minimal damage was done to both cars, unfortunately for me a car further back could not manage the same and smashed into my front right and destroyed my steering, this was effectively race over me. I tried to get some repairs done but i was kidding myself and that was the end for me. Congratulations to the top 3 - Steve J Richardson, Andy Baker & John Jarratt Organisers Website with more information on the league. http://www.radical-racing.co.uk/ I hope you enjoy the video, if so please hit that subscribe button.
