Because of my poor finish last race I was started up front in the heat race. On the start the second place car was able to get past but I held on for second. The car was working well, my new Interga dry slick front shocks from BRYKE racing  seemed to be working great.  I stayed with the leader and a few laps later he spun into the infield and I assumed the lead. However I was starting to get the dreaded brake fade so I was letting off the gas a little early to get into the corner with minimal use of the brakes. This allowed the second place car to work to the outside of me and after a lap of two of racing he took over the lead.  I continued my pressure and coming through the first and second turns, the leader bobbled and I was able to drive past him and retake the lead.  This time I knew time was short so I drove a little harder and maintained the lead and won the heat.
