I know new car, but don't trip on just a couple bugs getting worked out- Nothing come's easy and it'll make a nice finish (VL) that much Sweeter!!! need any proof RG can wheel it, just watch him in last years race at the Glen, drive his RGM built machine past the 24, and stay there untill tranny probs.!!! Jeff Gordon+Hendrick Machinery+test teams= RG's a wheelman!

If weather.com' s forecast holds for tomorrow ,RGM's entries look solid.

Sunday's strategy might be looking for 45 counted laps.Sunday and Monday forecast is iffy.
If so would an audible in the cards for PJ? (my wishful think'n)

Probably grilling some blackened tuna steaks down here in the Tampa area for the race. Looking like a Monday race to me, based on weather forcasts though. Flying home to Boston Tuesday, so I hope the race is run before then.
