    Eric, didn't you have the pole, led flag-to-flag, and then the win on Saturday before you got wrecked out on Sunday...? In your non-turbo BMW E30?

    Sorry Greg,

    I don't understand how SRF results are pertinent....

    Eric was T-boned on the pace lap of Sunday's race and was DNS.

    I think his point is that even with the tire and TIR changes we're looking at a repeat of last years Runoffs results.

    According to his Facebook post, the pace car bunched the field up, to slow the start down. He says it cracked the welds on the x-bar, and maxed his g-meter out at 5.6g latteral.

    Eric I don't see the data behind your argument... it seems as if you are saying
    that the turbo Solstices should be slowed down because they have some possibility of catching you?



    Is there some way you can build a bridge for me from Saturday's race data
    to your conclusion? Because I don't see it.
