Having raced IP years ago, the hardest thing I felt was keeping in front rather than trying to catch someone else. Best times were always close behind someone just a tad faster. Excellent control, great hands and feet!
I’m very impressed you could keep your lead throughout pretty much the whole race, especially battling it out like that for a good portion of it. I heard from Robert Patton you were fast, but man - you’re FAST
I enjoyed watching! I don't think I will ever be prepared to battle to the end like you guys did at 2 mins. Too scary for me. Lol 7 mins had two cars make contact.
Looked like the P2 car had a little motor on ya there... no way that's "draft" 😉 Very Nice Drive... who was driving that car? Showed some nice pace, and good decision making skills. Well done Mike!
That was Adrian Wlostowski in the black/blue car. He races in TA2 as well. These cars do draft really well, actually. I don’t know that much of it was a power advantage.
I've seen it in Spec Miata racing, and based on them usually giving the thumbs up, it's when a car initiates the bump draft, I'm gonna assume it has something to do with that
Spec Racing is so under rated. It's where the really good racing is.

Master class. Great drive, Mike.
That was intense! Great content
Pure entertainment. Love the battle!
Great driving, looks like a fun format

Thanks MIke!
I bet it’s so fun driving a car like this. Thanks Mike
Man I love this. Would be great to see a pedal cam Mike? You sure can make a car dance!
That’s a change in pace but so much fun, if not I bet stressful at times.. can imagine very easy to overdrive squeezing every last drop of performance
More fun 👍

why does the draft seem so strong!
Love the thumbs up, the first guy was no fun.
7:08 it get a little chippy back there…
Noob question @ 3:55, what was the hand signal there? I've seen that in track day/HPDE, but not racing.
it was a thumbs up signalling that it is okay to bumpdraft him I think. Some people don't like it.

Basically just "thanks" for the bump draft
Excellent race craft in defense of the position at T1 over and over!
Is there any money involved in this
No making money in SE46 really
Spoiler alert: If you know Mike, you know how this ends. 😘
