| There was open practice on Wednesday and we worked hard to find the setups that would work the best for our vehicles. The track started out every morning fairly loose due to being watered every night and then the track grooved up and traction went up throughout the day. We worked at getting a setup that would work for softer tires in the morning and harder in the afternoon to keep our car consistent throughout the day. |

| Sunday was the triple A mains for all 3 classes, I was able to win A1 and A2 in all 3 classes. This was a really tough race, lap times were incredibly close, it was a super small driving lines, even bumping the pipe would make you lose a position or more so this made the victories mean even more. |
