That escalated quickly. What was he just sayin' about air pressure sensor in the hose- a flow meter to tell if all 5 nuts are tight? or pressure spikes five times?

Don't they run the lug impacts on compressed nitrogen, or something- I remember an article long ago about the tricks they do to the air wrenches to speed things up, the custom jacks, etc...

I'm sure the teams are doing all they can (outside of cheating :wink: ) to gain an advantage on pit road. The times have gotten so low around 10 seconds that lots of time and resources are used to get the best time.

Don't know about the hydrogen though...

Everybody still has to pit two more times for Simoco Race Fuel.

I'm liking the looks of this race to replace my buddy trip up North snowmobiling. If we could combine a couple of Cactus League games with the race, it could be cool. Is Vegas still super cheap to fly to??

Just ask BigFan to take his charter. I think it depends on the time of year.
