David B's Facebook page is about the only spot for updates. They post something about 1-2 times a day.

Last I heard they missed an event and fell from 3rd to 4th in class. Daytona Beach today...

Hey Dave!
Looks like they did great at Grissom Airbase, must have been like a fast autocross?

Sorry for the lack of updates. This trip has been a lot tougher than planned. Trailer issues. Car issues. Lack of sleep issues we're pushing on, though. Car power and handling are phenominal! Daytona this morning was undescribable! If I had a few more laps I could probably pick up a LOT more time. The downward G's in the banking is crazy! David id running Daytona in a couple hours, then off to Gainesville for some drag racing!

David took 1st in class in the ET portion of drags, but got taken out in the first round of bracket racing. We're sitting in 3rd in class and somewhere around 20th overall for the whole event up through Gainesville.

Hey guys, need some advice on my tire. We locked the brakes up on one corner @ Daytona and flat spotted one tire. I wouldn't say it's horrible, but it is noticeable. Thuds @ low speeds but smooths out a bit @ high speeds. Can still see the mirrors vibrate and feel it just a bit in the steering wheel.

Question is - which corner do I run it on for the rest of the event, assuming clockwise tracks?? I was thinking of running it on the right rear, as that's the tire that does the least work.

Any advice???

Walk up to Brock, tell him what happened get the number for the rep at Tire Rack and see if they will replace it for the next event.

The exact same thing happened to Turn in Concepts at Daytona in 2009, and Tire Rack authorized the change out of those flat spotted tires, and took care of making it happen.
