“It was a lot better today than the Friday race,” said Nash. “We beat some people that got us yesterday, and our bike worked much better. It was not as crazy spinning around the banking, and the shock the team chose was a big improvement. In the early going, I hit neutral and lost a couple of positions, and I spent some time getting those back or we could have done a little better, maybe. The team did a great job of improving the bike, and I wish we could go racing again tomorrow.”
“We’re getting better, “said Justin Neyra. “We were behind the eight ball and lost a session on the first day. We improved our traction problem in the first race but we really needed to go further with it and we would have if we’d just had one more session. Huntley improved his lap time, and we know more about the bike. We’re looking forward to getting into our new MoTec system and progressing more.”
The promising project will be back in action May 30 through June 1 at Road America.
