I would say we need to test out a few more tracks that we have upcoming. There wasn't a lot of input last night since no one was here.

I'm hoping we could do some this weekend, either today, tomorrow, or Sunday. If not, we could do it Wednesday night (No plan for doing the regular test session for the Shootout)

all we really need to test is pocono and auto club theres only a few tracks we didn't run last year, and maybe infineon. for like phoenix, watkins, pikes peak and stuff we already ran there so i think regular Wednesday testing should be fine.

Me and Sherm were talking about the all star race and we thought it would be fun to spice things up such as:

Doing the qualifying where you do a lap, then pit, then do another lap and your total time is taken. we would run it like we did Daytona 500 qualifying but everyone would have to line up in the garage area

the other thing we thought would be fun is to do a standing start, not a joke

Reading through an article on SB Nation with Kyle Busch getting asked questions, he mentioned the Michigan test saying that he was hitting 37.80's on his runs, but Gordon and Keselowski were hitting 37.20's.

Thought I'd mention this so that you could get a feel for the right grip settings Jake lol

Times are irrelevant considering our cars are like 30 mph faster in the turns and 20 mph slower on the straights

Well, we were talking last night about how the track makes us go full-throttle, which is something Jake said he doesn't want to happen.

Just up the tire wear so that we're not doing it the entire run. You're not going to be able to increase the grip at a track like Michigan, where we already can go nearly full throttle with stock grip, and not have full throttle be the fastest way on a short run.
