No, we did not have a very good race in Chicago. We missed on tyre temps on three of the cars and had a suspension failure on another. We have been struggling to regain the mechanical grip we lost last year and the cold ambient temperature drove the track temp down to about 70 degrees, or 18 to 20 degrees cooler than when we practiced on Friday. Front roll center changes on two of the cars had little effect and in hindsight we could gone with less camber in the cars.

Hey, but thanks for your support!
The predicted low during the race was 40º. I think it got down to 55º.

During the day (I got at the track at noon), we were predicting that turn 3 would be a likely spot for accidents if the temperature did drop to 40º and the wind kept up like it did during the day.

Anyone know why the f*** the race was so late!? 9:00 p.m. is no time to start a race.
