"I had chaos going on behind me. I caught him [Kitchen] a little bit, but I'd run into a lapper and lose some time. God puts me in these situ - ations where I'm either going to go for it or not go for it; 99 percent of the time, I'm going to go for it, and most of the time, it doesn't play out. If I was maybe point-two [seconds] closer, that RJ Hampshire finished third. He and Kitchen are tied at the top of the 250SX West Championship with one race left.
