Pitting is a HUGE gamble at this track anyway.

Smarter folks can correct me here...but, at this place - it doesn't seem that the actual pit "time" matters as much as whether or not you guess correctly as to when to pit period.

(Given yellows and other race events)

Seems as though over the years, I've watched RG be in a position to finish very well or terrible...all predicated on yellow timing and fuel.

This is my take aswell. One of the reasons this track is frustrating. Many/most times the race is won not by the best car/driver/team, but rather the luckiest strategy. Montoya comes to mind.

Owner/Driver/Crew Chief, no matter what, he'll be "Best in Class".
