Cars are on the track, but rain is on the way. Speed just showed the regional radar and there is no way they avoid it. Many of the drivers are complaining about the right rear, no grip. So far, David Ragan and Sam Hornish have spun (Sam twice) with only minor damage. Exit of turn 4 seems to be slippery for everyone. According to DW speeds are about1.2 secs slower than previous races with the old car. With the expected rain later today and tomorrow, the crews are working on race setups not quals.

Originally posted by Jimmy HendricksNo, Ragan, Hornish and Mikey are plenty of capable of spinning without help.
Hornish - A rookie - let's allow him some time to learn before passing judgement.
Mikey - Been running around Bristol for the better part of 20 years and really has no excuses for goofing up.Gregg Sebald
