Didn't a bunch of E cars get DQ'd recently at a race? What was the story with that?

You just want your car to look as pretty as mine.

Another reminder of why I should never have sold my car...

Will be fun to watch though.

I think we should all chip in and paint Clarke's car Thursday night after some beers.

It will be good to see a large turnout in E. Guess a lot of people "built" new cars as many were totaled in the last few years.

Don't worry I'll probably suck it up, still getting the new car up to speed, and I think red has more drag

Agree, except there are two up shifts to do! I prefer to shift into 4th before I turn in to Turn 2. In my 3.2 car, that happens before I hit my (legal) rev limiter (ie a short shift).

A handful of 3.2 E cars from one team were DQ'ed at Road America last year. The new issue of Club Racing News talks about it.

Correct, Sprint #1 start. After I got around all the F and G cars, thank you for breaking the air for me to get the track record.
