Sweet! Nice going young Skywalker! That is what racing is all about! Enjoy your accomplishment. There will be an "oh yeah but, that year" always attached to your title year but that does not detract from your accomplishments.

You have done a great job! Be proud! Next year the Championship?! Make sure that they spell your name correctly in the record books. :wink:
