Very happy with my win, Think it was clean despite what looks like either lag contact (very light if so) or simply a wobble caused by my blasting close past Phil off the start line - Sorry either way if it was me Phil
After that I managed to get inside of Al exiting T1 which gave me 2nd, I caught and stayed with James for quite a few laps until I made some silly mistakes a Moss. This dropped me back about 3-4 seconds letting him get clear. Next thing I knew there were yellows everywhere on the approach to the start straight and I passed a couple of cars that were up on the grass, looked at Prib a found myself in 1st.
I steadily pulled away from Al despite another daft mistake or two at Moss, only to let him nearly catch and pass me for first when I locked up big style over the jump and went off into the hedge.
Rejoined about 2 seconds ahead which resulted in Al being right up my G/Box by the S/F line
Had to pull myself together and concentrate hard to hold him off until finally I broke away. Still not sure if that was me simply improving my laps by a few tenths or just Al backing off and letting me go?
Anyway, despite the win and my normal enjoyment at Mosport that was a damn hard race, and I can't say I had the normal huge amount of fun there, very odd
Well done Al on a very good first race, and a very big slap on the back to Tim on a podium spot
Bad luck James, You were quicker in the first half of the lap while I seemed to have the 2nd half. Would have been interesting to see who came put on top - bad luck on the accident
And of course congrats to all the other finishers!
