James and I got shunted to the back of the grid right off the bat and that often causes a level of frustration that must be managed to avoid compounding the situation but he handled it very well. He passed me on the first lap, courtesy of a his 1 sec/lap better lap time! I was in mid pack with him for quite a bit and finished two spots behind, about 6 secs in arrears. I saw him handle quite a few tough situations as there were a couple of mid packers who were um aggressive to put it nicely. Anyways, I did not realize his age at the time and now that I know, I am very impressed with his composure and maturity. Well done! By the way, this sport is fun for all ages...I have 55 years on young James and I'm having a blast too.
