Pics From Test Day @ Willow
Most of the morning was spent chasing down a problem with the ABS system in the 05 car that resulted in an little off-track excursion, and the (unmarked) 01 car was there for some suspension adjustments. The ABS problem ended up being a bad ground that was pretty easy to fix once we were able to pinpoint it, but that took a while. Mostly we were there just getting ready for Fontana.
Enjoy the pics.

Cooter,
What kind of times did you get down to in the Cup car? Conditions looked good.
If you go to the Mid Ohio or VIR races let me know.

Viken - It was this past weekend, I'm sure you probably know some of the guys that were running the Challenge cars, like Cort...
OG - you got it, the bugs were pretty bad. But that's what Porsches are for, no ?
Alex - As the others have mentioned, it's the new Maserati flagship, Quattroporte. Stunning 4 door, although I wasn't too impressed with the color combo...Hey, thanks for the welcome back, man !!
Greg - The conditions were good, however it was very windy. So much so that it was actually affecting the car fairly substantially between 7 and 9. 1:27:50 was the best time we could manage, but there was probably another 2 seconds there to be had (tires, suspension, fuel loads, etc). Like I've mentioned before, and it's a pretty sore subject right now, my job-job has a pretty tight grip on me these days and I'm really struggling with the fact that someone has given me the opportunity to do what I love, but I have other responsibilities. I'll figure something out, but in the event I make it to VIR I'll be sure to let you know.
Thanks Kim

Viken - Actually just Fri. The fiancé would have killed me had I spent the entire Easter weekend at the track…God knows I wanted to.

Rich,
Here's a bunch of great photos:

And the avatar was taken from the "Random Pictures" thread in the OT forum, originally posted by Qball. You owe me, page 8 (took forever to find it)

PS - If you haven't given the thread a complete look, I highly suggest doing so
