While Seavey was trying to hold off the field, there was plenty of action behind him…
Not the night we wanted. I screwed and got in another car early on in the race. Got into a racing deal wreck on the last lap with @KyleLarsonRacin and finished in the back. Try again tomorrow night on @FS1 #WoOiRacing #RacingTogether https://t.co/ME09Y94R7a

Not fast enough on this thing yet but I’ll keep trying until we get back in the real thing. Definitely having more fun at building the sim rig though, maybe it will be done by next weeks races. Bring on a bullring 😜🏁
