Apparently #70 is having trouble with visibility but so are most of the cars. This is looking promising.

vibration was possibly a mistake by Hoosier.. they mounted the wrong size tires for the e
rear wheels.

the inside visibilty issue is under control now... some soap on the inside of the widshield, and things are good to go.

we're now 4th, i think its possible to get up to 3rd, we dont have enough speed to catch up to the 2nd, and 1st placed porsche is just TOO quick... hope a combination of pit strategy and flags help.
