The number has the same shape, just changed from Orange to White. Someone said maybe with the SPEED S next to it it looked like a 17 which makes sense.
Maybe today the number will be Octane Yellow

Guess I'll be the frist one today to complain about a crew chief decision. You picked the wrong pit stall, my seat is in front of stall 30.

Lol. Woulda been cool though if it had worked out for you. Seems I'm always 10-15 boxes away when I go!

lol.. well it may not be good for you and your seat.. but actually a smart decision. the pit stall is past the start/finish line so if he stays out under yellow to lead a lap he can cross the start/finish while going to the pits

Grouped in with the fastest cars on the track at first. As of last week RG can pick off the weaker competion moving thru the feild and know the strength of the other teams. And Paul isn't behind him. EARLY! Just later as he pits with leaders . OPTIMISTIC!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope.Personally think right pit stall was picked. Pretty much right in front of us, Yep not a very exciting race but a race nontheless. Big thanks to Robby. Was there yesterday and today for the autograph session and he was great. Did have some worries when he was still standing there minutes before he had to qualify but that is our Robby. Oh and the few Speed Energy drinks we had were handed out at the autograph session he had today, by us. Oops.
