Highest Finish for Bailey at BoxRaceBrazil

It was a quiet day, 11JAN2014, at Snetterton '64, until the Mustangs rolled through. Characterized by its long straights and sweeping turns, Snetterton '64 is a great track for these Mustangs that always bring excitement in head-to-head battles throughout the field. Bailey abstained from qualifying due to not having the minimum 10 practice laps at the circuit.

"The track is fairly easy to remember. The hairpin at the end of the longest straight is a bit tricky so that's where you can capitalize on other the most." - Bailey

Starting 12th out of 15 competitors Bailey had a good start to the race. In the very first lap of the race Bailey was able to make his way to 7th, but was soon delayed by an collision that blocked part of the track in front of him. Upon nearly finishing the second lap of the race Bailey witnessed a major incident near the Start/Finish line. The vehicle lost control, hit a banking, and then was tossed 20 meters into the air and eventually landing back on the track wight next to Bailey's car.

"Wow" - Bailey

When it came for Bailey's pit stop he was not able to slow down in time due to the driver drafting directly behind him. He went around once more and had to abort this pit entry yet again due to a driver that seemed to have problems controlling his Mustang at the time. Bailey avoided spearing the pit barrier by inches as he swerved to avoid a race ending incident. Fortunately Bailey was able to pit the next time around.

In partial disbelief Bailey finished the race in 2nd place with less than a lap of fuel left in the tank. Bailey also had the most consistent lap times compared to the entire field during the race.

You can watch the live broadcast of the race below. It has been confirmed that Bailey was listening to "The Art of War" during the race and can be attributed to his performance during the race.
