Tuesday will be our return trip to Texas Motor Speedway for Chase Race #6. Dore continued to dominate the Chase by winning at Road America to unofficially clinch the championship.
A last lap desperation move by me at Road America for 2nd place ended up wrecking Laf hard into the fence out of the final corner. The crash relegated Laf to 4th place while I kept it gassed to the checkers. I made no attempt to lift and was given a time penalty of 5 seconds, placing me back in 4th position with Delux and Laf becoming the Top 3 finishers.
No suspension from the upcoming race at Texas was applied, however I will voluntarily sit out the race as an apology to Laf and as a gesture of respect to the entire SCARTS field for my actions which I do not normally condone in our series. I will serve as a spectator and admin. This move will likely lock Dore as the SCARTS champion as long as he starts the race.
Congratulations!
