The Twisty hilly track at Mid-Ohio promised to be a fast pace romp. Sulla
grabbed her 10th pole position for the season. After 2 restarts the race was under way, with Jafo leading and Sulla hot on his tail. Kat Reitveld got a good start landing in 3rd for the first several corners before the author was able to get by.

Jafo and Sulla raced ahead, but i was able to keep them in sight, untill lap 5 where Sulla was able to get passed Jafo. But disaster struck in T1 of lap 6 when Jafo got into the back of Sulla sending them both off course, allowing me to take over the lead where i stayed for the next 35 laps. Sulla stayed in contact for a short bit before having another off, where Jafo took over 2nd place for most of rest of the race.

Suzy Cuddihy and Yuriko Nishi ran solid races behind as did Kat , the 3rd to 5th place spot changing hands several times as cars pitted . Jafo seemed to have 2nd sewed up easy untill the final lap where a off got him stuck on the high curb of Mid-Ohio, technical difficulties sent Kat Reitveld off also where she became stuck with Jafo, allowing Suzy Cuddihy to cruise by for her 8th podium of the season. The race was also unkind to Razi Sorbet and Sulla Looming who both retired.

With Sulla finishing 8th overall causes quite a shake up in points , sending her from 1st to 3rd and putting myself and Suzy in a tie for 1st place with Sulla just 2 points behind , just 2 races remaining to determine the championship there will be some sweaty palms to finish this one out.
The next race taking place at the 1 mile oval of New hampshire.
