Morning Joeb and everyone else.....I don't miss those days of breaking stuff to burn....but I wouldn't trade them either....I remember the first time we all were established with money and the four us rented a huge motor-home...boy, we were big....we had finally made the jump to "civilized fandom". We had every nook and cranny stuffed with firewood.

Yeah...they got the wave around then didn't pit, so they were ahead of class leader and got waved around again.

In response to the 90 having a spin, Palmer says "the visit florida car visited a bit too much of it!" good stuff early in the Am.

In Spain is a tradition on June 23rd night, St John, to make bonfires with old stuff.

Whatever those adjustments were, the #02 seems to have come alive on this stint.

The only one of the top 4 that I don't feel 'deserves' to be in the race (they play by the rules, I don't like the rules) is the #5 AXR car. So get your money on that, because I feel they've probably been saving themselves, and Bourdais, for the end.

The Ganassi #02 got laps back under cautions as well, didn't it? Or at the very least they benefited from the field being packed up.

I think the 01 and the 10 are the only cars not to have gotten laps back by the wave-by procedures iirc. So they should be the ones that win!

I could be wrong, but I thought it was a single lap, which is wrong but doesn't feel quite as wrong. And it was a long time ago and my memory is fuzzy from attempting the PC Spin drinking game.

Not yet. Unscheduled stop anyway, only 12 laps since last stop. Going behind the wall.

Not good for Falken, great pace but not the reliability to match.
