the plethora of tabletop’s on the far side rhythm section, his multiplication of combinations had him planting on the ground a mere two or three times, over the course of a hundred yard stretch. He had no fear when flying through the California
air, with his riding style seemingly oozing with confidence with every passing circuit. Landing in a solid position on the final
that had been pushed into the circle of Angels stadium, he would slowly but surely begin to gel with this layout. Leaping onto
leaderboard, he looked to load the starting grid in his heat race with poise. After a deep breath just prior to starting his engine, he would give a subtle nod to his mechanic, and then focus his attention on that of the thirty-second board. Within a flash,
the pin would then unlatch this heap of a metal bracket, letting the steel frame flop to mother earth, and his 450 beeline down the start stretch. Neck and neck with the likes of Tyler Bowers, the two would begin to pace each other, as he would eye the over-under for an opportunity of passing. Jumping to the left, he would nearly clip the inside boundary of racing surface, but somehow manage to position his body in order to hug the narrowest of margins, fortunately resulting in a pass being made. With antics like this, he would continue to move forward, claiming a fourth place finish at the stripe. It was then a matter of shear will and guts, as the 450 main event were under way. With the field seemingly leaping and bounding over one another, he decided to lay low for just a short bit, letting chaos unfold around him. Landing in fourteenth on the first lap, he knew
that this would be a race of attrition; therefore he tried his best to focus on the laptimes relayed on the pit board, trying his hardest to race the track, rather than the competitors in his foresight. It would yield a positive return, as he would begin to pull from the likes of Jason Anderson near the halfway point. Knowing that at any moment, someone could mount a charge from behind, he would dash to the checkered flag as the finale neared; landing in a spot of tenth place was something to build off of, and he was ready to repeat in the second round of the series.
