Is it me or they use narrower rear wings today? The white/blue car also had an asymmetrical rear wing (left side didn't have that flap over the wheel).

And we are in the 230's!

Marco Andretti - 230.017

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

If Chevy is sandbagging, why are they doing that now? Somehow I doubt it, Honda may have just upped the game a bit. At least Andretti has.

Maybe it's been Honda that was sandbagging during the open test... They knew that had something and kept a lid on it.

This car, without the rear cover winglets, and with that Pennzoil livery, that's a damn good looking car (for 2016).

I'm sure you all can see on the stream but all the Chevy teams are running without the left endplate on the rear wing.

I prefer 500 miles and 500 more



Was about to post that for reply.



Is it because of the 500 miles or because of one certain Fiero? Or both?
