“The day started out great,” says Pat, “everything on the car felt good and I pushed it in qualifying after going off a couple of times in practice.” Pat took it too wide going into the horseshoe of the Road Atlanta course on his first run, causing him to straighten out and net a zero on his first run. He knew that a conservative run would not look great but it was his only chance to make Top 32. “I knew that zero was going to require me to play it safe if I wanted to compete on Saturday,” says Pat on his second qualifying run. “I hate running like that, but I have to think overall about the championship.”
