Had last round of local track championship yesterday here in Sydney . 8 round series , first round rained out .
Went in tied but leading championship . 5 rounds of racing , 19 entrants in class .
Very hot day , high vapour and water grains . Got over 100pdeg middle if day . Mid to high 2000's DA .
Car was a little slow but consistant, 10.78, 10.78, 10.80 in qualifying.
Number 2&3 in championship went out rnd1 , i knocked out #4 in the quaters .
After 3 rounds everyone was saying you have won the championship , but noone official . I said i simply wanted to win the day . Took a solo in the semi as i was 3rd fastest qualifier, ran 10.65 in semi.
Ran a 10.30 car in the final and got a little luck . Spun hard and thought I'm done , Craig in other lane missed the tree and couldn't run his number .
So took the win and championship .
It was a long tough year.
