Ron was doing well, but decided to "excite" everyone.

Thanks John for the write up as always great job!

This was the battle for 3rd on the last lap of Sunday am quali race with some added excitment as we came through 12 there was a moment then Bruce decided he was going to make it even more exciting by missing a shift 20' before the finish line.
