In Hurt MaGurt Penske Chevy #22
Can we discuss the scenario of a potential waive around? There was a time on Indy where I was 2 laps down but was in between 1st and 2nd place on a restart. I think to keep battles of guys on the same lap close, and to keep more people on the lead lap, there should be waive arounds for anyone who is a lap down and in between any cars on the lead lap.

Rich and I have had a quick chat about this and we both feel that as there only ever 8 of us at one time it’s not too much of an issue, should the number of drivers increase then we’ll see if we need to implement any procedural change.

Can you just clarify this.. so the waive around is not going to be allowed?

I just watched the Iowa race yesterday and noticed that like Gateway they ran the road course body kit. I can't remember what they run at Texas. Is this the oval or the road body kit race?

It’s not quite the road course kit it’s a hybrid of sorts which we don’t have. I did think about this when me and Dave talked about the series but road course car just doesn’t have the base set up for a oval in terms of cornering. Also I don’t think we’d be able to get the full potential from the circuit as I think the car would be on the limiter long before turning into any corner.

I used an Oval set up to start and then toned it down.

I don't think i'm going to be available for this race. My wife has plans to go to Niagara Falls so unless the weather takes a turn for the worse i'm gonna miss this. Which sucks because i was on a charge the last couple races and need more finishes to catch Peter.

Sorry fella's but I'm uncertain for this at the moment i'm afraid. I have had no practice at all and haven't been back in the car since Indy. To be honest I am struggling to get my head back into any racing at all at the moment and can't seem to find the time to get back into the swing since my vacation. Way too much going on family wise and at work . I did forced myself to race in Hurts Abarth series on Saturday which I usually really enjoy and thought that would get me back into the mood but it did not go well I need plenty of practice laps to get myself up to any sort of speed and it just ain't happening right now. I'll try to get some laps in tonight and make a decision after that. I'll put myself as a maybe for now along with Karl. I'll continue to update the site and keep on top of things here though regardless.
