the two of us have the fastest lap al-
most every race there at the end. It’s
tough. It really is. I start with that deficit
and mentally it’s tough to wrap your
mind around coming back through all
those guys. A lot of times, especially in
the GNCC’s, nobody wants to let you
by. Then at the national enduros, you
start that race with a deficit. You move
into the second test and you’ve got an
hour to sit there while you’re doing the
transfer, or sitting there eating a snack
or whatever waiting for the second
section to start. You’ve got an hour to
sit there and kick yourself for whatever
you did in the first test. For me, that’s
tough. It’s hard to overcome that. The
best thing that I can do is be positive,
forget about it and move on to the
next section.
