“We went a few directions today, some worked better than others. All in all it was a shorter day for us but we learned a lot and we accomplished quite a bit. We ended up in the top-ten for the day today, which I think was pretty good since we really focused on development. My engineer Burke Harrison worked through a long list and my crew did a good job making the changes. I can’t wait to get back in the King Taco car at Laguna Seca next month."

“This was a very important test for our team in terms of development. We tested combination after combination and have a lot of great information heading into the season because of it. I am learning so much from my engineer, Tim Lewis. I’ve never really learned how to develop a car, I’ve certainly never spent this much time developing set-up and it is really a great experience and I feel I have a much better fundamental understanding of what the car needs and what I need to maximize the track conditions. We did our best time of the test this afternoon when the track was actually slower; I ran the 12th quickest time at the point. The interesting thing also was that I was quicker on the old tires. It says a lot about the terrific product Cooper Tires provides us. I wish we had one more day because the car we ended up with this afternoon was awesome and I would love to try it out tomorrow morning when the track is at its best! I am really excited to get the season started!"
