Finally got to my first final in my regular points class and got the win, no consolation race. Actually this was the first time I've gone past 3rd round. 5 of 6 rounds against 9 and 10 second cars with my 12.70ish dial.
Trophy Class, driving the car 80 some miles each way to race.
Always a great time at the track, win or loose.

Once you get that first win the rest of them seem to come a lot faster.
