Austin Langenstein Scores another podium, Finishes 3rd in Winter Heat Finale.

Just one week after a dominating weekend sweep at Charlotte Motor Speedway Austin Langenstein and the #7 Cray Team were back out at the CMS Road Course for the final event of the 2014 Winter Heat. Austin would have to start last in his 4 lap heat race due to winning last weeks races. Austin would quickly move through the field to finish 4th in the heat. After the fan draw invert Austin would line up the #7 in the 3rd position for the Feature event. Austin would battle for the lead through out the event and it would be a great 4 car battle for the win. Austin would ride in the 3rd spot waiting to make his move on the 1st and 2nd place drivers, with 2 laps to go the #69 car would hit Austin in the Bumper and move Austin up the track and get by him. Austin would return the favor the next lap and re pass the #69 for the 3rd spot where he would go on and finish taking the right step on the podium. Austin would also pick up the Federal Tires "Fastest Lap'' of the race award for the 3rd consecutive race. After the hard fought battle we caught up with Austin- " I was faster then the 2 leaders but they were running for points and I'm not and I didn't want to wreck them for the win, I was just being patient to make my move and unfortunately I didn't get to make my move because the #69 tried to wreck me and I lost some time.It's still a pretty good finish with all things considering." Austin would finish out his first 4 races of the 2014 year with two wins and two third place finishes. Now Austin shifts his focus to the 2014 CrossFit Games Open that starts in just 24 days while also racing several other special racing shows before the 21st annual Summer Shootout that starts in June.
