If the #7 was 41st quick of 46 cars at Watkins Glen or Sonoma I'd be concerned. Plate tracks not so much.

exactly...and for Daytona...if you are not in the top 5 or so in these practices, you have no shot at the pole/outside pole, which is all ths decides anyway (and Robby's starting position for Duel Race #2).

As long as the car isn;t bottoming out/iron out any kinks...we'll be fine...
