You got these up quick! Well done on an amazing win after a fantastic battle with Burnout.. superb. Shame others couldnt get involved, Szymek was fast but on bad strategy and Revenge had lags.. the road course car looks promising though

SUPOIB!!!

Thanks dude

Nah, my strategy was fine - one brainlagged lap + returning onto the track in the crowd destroyed my race.

I had enough fuel to finish the race without pitting with 7 laps to go. I took the gamble - if there had been yel, I'd have had big chance to win this race.

Anyway, congratz dore/burnout!

Yup, that's the same strategy that got you the win and me second place here in FTC this past year

Gratz again Dore, that was a stressful half dozen or more laps.  You had the faster car there at the end, so you were the rightful winner.  I made a mistake earlier and pit early to help me gain back my track position.  I was lucky to have saved enough fuel for the stretch run to the end once you caught me.

Excellent battling that was! A great close to the year.

And what a great 2013 it has been! A three-way tie for the Full Throttle Cup championship, a photo finish at Bristol, and two new closest road course finishes this year.

Congrats again to Lanz winning the 2012-2013 Turbocharged Series early in 2013 and of course for prevailing in the three-way tie for the FTC championship. Also, nice job again Dore on your Rising Star title.

Here's to EVEN MORE success in SCARTS in 2014! Drafting is coming boys!
