The Citation team got here early Wednesday after an all night 15 hour tow to get up here for the Wednesday test day. We didn't find out about the Wednesday test day until about 3:00 on Monday, so there was a bit of a thrash to get everything loaded. It was more track time and a little bit cheaper than the Thursday test day even.
Phoenix and Citation were running the Wed. test day. Without timing them the Phoenix car looked quite fast all day and I only expect them to get faster as Mark isn't slated to arrive until today (Wed.). Very good looking car also. They were trying some trick aero bits by the end of the day.
We are still chasing some different issues around but were able to make some good progress all day and we are glad we did what it would take to make the test day (no sleep from monday morning through wed. night). We finally saw a 2:20 in the last session on 3 weekend old tires and an exhausted driver. We are still chasing some small oiling issues, but the threat to the car has been severely reduced.
Several other competitors have already arrived, Niki ran the Tuesday test day and spent all day Wed. putting a new motor in his Firman, I haven't really had a chance to get by there to talk to him yet. Citation is in paved paddock space 3, right at start finish, so please come by if you get a chance.
