We had that problem last year and I forgot to change it. I'll take care of it right now. Thanks!

So far so good. Temps went from the 220-224 range down to around 207-211.

Some thoughts on the setup: stable, predictable. Very good for a fixed setup race.

The car can be pretty tough to turn into the corner when you're following a group at speed, so you'll either drift high or crank the wheel hard and scrub the tires a bit, but that's pretty common at Daytona...other than that, very solid.

Have fun everyone, hope to see you on Sat.

Will probably be about an hour late for the practice tonight, but looking forward to running with any of you that are on at the time!
