Very excited that not one but two leagues have started, and am really enjoying racing in these cars. For Bridgehampton I chose the Plymouth Barracuda because it has good power and is very stable.
Quali went well and I secured pole position.
Race 1 started well and I kept [USER=10]@DJCruicky[/USER] behind me to begin with. Opened up about a three second gap but then I went too wide into the very tight righthander and he was right on my tail. The next few laps were tense as he was driving better and I was making mistakes. His Mustang had a superior top speed which meant I had to work hard to defend into turn 1. Eventually I made another costly mistake and he got past. I tried to follow but had no answer and finished P2.
Race 2 and reversed grid meant I started P10. I managed to avoid getting caught up in the initial pandemonium and then settled to try and make up places. A Camaro and Javelin had an incident in front and after that [USER=10]@DJCruicky[/USER] was on my tail again. Now I was following Giorgio in the other Plymouth until he got very loose into a corner and swapped ends. I took avoiding action to the left but [USER=10]@DJCruicky[/USER] clipped him which gave me a bit of space. After this I managed to focus on my driving and kept position to finish P1.
