I hope they figure out the cars tight condition because it's going to suck that they put all this effort into this race by missing a race to go test and then and then not be able to figure out the car. The reporter said something about they thought the car would be faster in qualifying trim, but can a car can't race that way, can it? Just hope they find something before race day or qualifying.

As soon as I saw PJ stopped, I figured they were doing a fuel run to see what kind of mileage those Triad's are getting so Robby and Miles will know.

Notice that Biffle is at the top of the 1st pratice chart this time and Fellows is the only road course ringer in the top 10. PJ is showing as a go home candidate and Robby is way in the back. I hope they have something for Qualifying.
