Your qualifying laps came down steadily from 36.02s to a quick 28.04s in Round 23, comfortably inside the field median of 31.28s, and your best two consecutive of 58.87s put you 27th of 75, a mere 0.26s behind MCQUEEN. In the A Main you won Redemption Round 2 ahead of Subb20, then in Redemption Round 4 you closed with a 28.14s lap that was nearly a match for your best. You finished 26th of 75, a place up on where you qualified, and 8th of 11 in the Young Guns. Across the week you got 1.62s quicker from your early heats to your late ones.
