The track flowed very well and had\u00a0some very tricky sections that . Through out qualifying I\u00a0was still trying to get a grip on the track but I still\u00a0managed to TQ a round and ended up 2nd on the grid for the\u00a0triple A-Mains. In A1 I was able to get into the lead\u00a0early and pulled a 12 second lead just over the halfway\u00a0mark when a mechanical issue hit me and I was forced to\u00a0retire. In A2 once again I jumped out front early on and\u00a0ran away with the race, taking the win and setting up a\u00a0showdown between me and the TQ who won A1. I was able to\u00a0take the lead early in A3 but I made a few un-timely\u00a0errors and fell back abit. I was able to reel the leader\u00a0back in abit but just didn&#8217;t have enough and had to settle\u00a0for 2nd place and 2nd overall. My Tekin equipment ran\u00a0great all weekend long in the 90+ degree weather and Tekin\u00a0was able to sweep the podium in dominating fashion!&#8221; Jeremy Potter<\/span><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-ziKaFV_Gqds\/TjbVyp-TLyI\/AAAAAAAAAQE\/-MwdvlnnuRM\/s1600\/ROAR11.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\"><span><img loading=\"lazy\" border=\"0\" height=\"238\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-ziKaFV_Gqds\/TjbVyp-TLyI\/AAAAAAAAAQE\/-MwdvlnnuRM\/s400\/ROAR11.jpg\" width=\"400\"><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div><span>1.
