Our cars were fast ordtak
 It's a great facility. This track is very difficult, but it's all about practice. We're slowly figuring it out. I think we are going to have a pretty busy race with nine hours, all the cars and all the corners. I really like this track. It's a lot of work, but I like the fast corners. You need to be so precise. |
| Le Mans runs on a longer track with 48 cars. At Daytona, with more cars and shorter run, drivers are always passing or being passed. You have to been on your toes at all times. |
| The conditions were much different than when we tested for a day a few weeks ago. Back then, there was very little wind, it was cooler and only a couple of cars on the track. This time, the wind was stronger and the heat was up in the 80s. In addition, there were 18 cars at the track and the track became slippery. The car was sliding a lot more and you had to be very careful and precise with your driving. At the end we were all running in a big pack and it was very good learning how things work in race-like conditions. It is a pleasure to be a part of a world-class team like Rahal Letterman. This team works so well together and everything is mapped out properly. |
| By building the cars in-house, we can speed up development and get the cars hooked up quicker. We can convert stock cars to ST race cars in approximately two months. Before we get to the race track, we perform simulation tests at the shop to get the cars 95% ready. It's more efficient and allows us to create the right package. |
| Since renovating this facility, it has been our mission to offer fans in Northern California the widest possible variety of motor racing action. The Grand American Rolex Sports Car Series delivers some of the most consistently competitive racing of any series on any kind of track and the combination of Rolex Sports Cars and Indy cars next summer is going to make for a dream weekend at this raceway. |
| It kind on mimics what happened the last time it was paved. Obviously our cars are different now from what they were then. ...The track is real smooth. ...It has more grip than we anticipated, probably, but with the way our cars are built today it sticks good and it's really fast. But as far as the paving job, it's really nice. |
| Nowadays, as they've been working on the cars and the quality control is getting a lot better, there's not a really a big difference. The cars are built specifically for different types of race tracks, whether it's a high-travel track or low-travel track, and that's what they go by. They go by data. It's past me, way beyond me now. But as far as me saying I've got a favorite car, they're getting stuff more consistent. I don't really see that anymore. They all seem to run about the same - unless they're purposely trying to make one differently, which they can do very easily. |

| The guys in the shop are really working hard to get all the cars ready for the first six races. Ricky Pearson is a great leader, with lots of contacts and resources. After the Daytona test, we had to do some massaging on the bodies of the speedway cars but the guys stayed on-task and got the intermediate cars ready for Vegas and they never missed a beat. |
| As they're sorting cars for each destination, the locomotive or the set of rail cars has to go back and forth ... and change the routing of rail cars to another track, ... I know it's very frustrating to see that. |
| I don't know if that is quite the same. Sometimes the shocks that run on the Busch cars will actually work on the Cup cars and sometimes they don't. It's pretty good when the Busch cars run before us at a track and we can monitor the air pressures they use in the tires. Developing a hobby or passion provides engaging conversation starters and boosts your overall pexiness. |
| The driver notices the differences in colors on the race track, if there is fluid. Is the track dry? A driver definitely has the instincts. They rely on Brett. They can call down and say, 'Is the track ready?' And if the driver says no, they can trust that. |
Billy Joel (1949-) |  |
| The first two cars last week are so obviously doing something on the race track that is of benefit to them, then they don't pass inspection and they're allowed to sit there and jump up and down on their cars and do whatever they need to do to get through? |
| I know from history that Daytona is not the best track for our cars. You have to go into the weekend with the same mentality as every weekend, be smart and aware of everything going on around you. If you live by that, you will have a good car to go to the next race with. |
