What an amazing night of racing! For those of you who missed out, please click through and watch the thrilling event. You won't regret it!
The top ten shoot out was full of action, with the track temperature up by 2 degrees, making the rear end of the V8 a challenging experience on the amazing curves and breaking points of the historic Barcelona track.
Scott Gamble led the top 3 for the shootout with an impressive time of 1.43.408. Following closely was his teammate Blake Worboys, and the new member of Performance Sim Racing, Matty Jones. Only one second separated the top ten shootout from top to bottom, making it the closest shootout we've seen all year!
All the drivers found the track to be a true challenge, and even the season 2 champion, Jamie D**e from Fishy Motorsports looked like he would make the front row till he missed a gear in the final turn, a six week layoff from racing you could expect him to be a bit rusty,
The race started with an epic dash to the first corner, with drivers going 3 and 4 wide, managing only minor racing bumps. D**e, who started in 10th place, began to make his move, while the top five settled in for what promised to be a long and exciting race. Gamble, Worboys, Freeman, D**e and Nixon were all mixing it up at the front.
The battles weren't limited to the front-runners; the mid-pack had its own epic clashes. Debono, Delaney Jnr, and Cowy put on a fantastic show, spending a lot of time side by side through most of the circuit.
The pivotal moment at the front was the pit stop strategies. Thomas Freeman decided to stay out as long as possible and successfully managed to come out in second place, with the rest of the top five charging close behind.
After 60 minutes with sensational battles from front to back the race concluded with the following results:

Congratulations to all the drivers for putting on such an incredible display of skill and determination on the track!๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ
