A battle of the strategies and a mess in Turn One were expected before the third race on the tight circuit on the streets of South City
spdoKiLl3r set the fastest time in Q1, but it didn't help him in Q2 where he could only manage position 8. Speedykev and Storm clearly set up their car for the Pole-Position. However, OMC Speedykev pitted when it wasn't aloud so he and SF Damon, who did the same mistake had to start from the pits. ^P^Storm took the first position in front of Speedcore.GTR and OMC Jet.
77 laps have to be driven, which means the drivers had to cover more than the usual eighty miunutes of racing, so a long evening was ahead of them. Luckily almost no one got hurt in the first corners. Jet had to give his 3rd position away to FPR|Matze after an accident. Storm had to stop early - clearly on a three-stop strategy - giving the lead to Speedcore.GTR, who was on a good pace this race, but he risked too much driving with a damaged car and giving up. FPR|Matze was leading mid-race, but a damper failure and wrong pitting setting takes his podium hopes away.
With KiLl3r having a "horrible race set" only NWRT Knu can follow Storm with a two-stop strategy. At his second stop Knu makes a very fast pitstop which lets him stay 6 seconds in front of Storm. With even laps to go, Storm closes the gap but can't get close enough. Two laps to go and Knu has to pay now for his fast pitstop. He has a flat tyre at the front left and falls back to second, letting Storm win his first race of this season.
