The team did an awesome job altering the car's setup this afternoon, following the testing session. Dale qualified 8th overall, 1st in his class! A great improvement, and Dale said the car drove really well.
Dale's best lap time was 1:45.472 - a full 2 seconds faster than the testing round. A couple of adjustments - a little bit more boost, and a change in springs/ride height seems to have done the job. We're still under the regulation boost, so there's a little bit more to play with. Maybe some springs/suspension adjustment to come, and we'll get even better.
Over all though the team is feeling pretty confident that the development of this car is going really well. We're all learning more, every round, how to get better and better performance from the vehicle - which is what this year is all about.
We're looking forward to the first race tomorrow morning, around 10:00AM, for the real test on how things are sitting so far.
Official results/times are available here.
