`If you noticed the lap times, and really when he was about to go a lap down, RG was as fast as the leaders... and that was mid-pack. With clean air he it could have been a top 5 car.
Also faster pits would work too.
What bugs the crap out of me is Nascar supposedly aimed to make the COT less aero dependant, but all I see is more aero dependance. The COT has actually increased the performance gap between the small teams and mega teams. Yes its easier to build, start, and park a COT; but was that really the goal? (Taking safety out of the equation, that was a large goal and by all accounts they actually got that right)
