Good run Evasive. How did you feel about the 1:59. Did you feel there is a lot left on the table. Did you feel you needed more power, more brake or more traction?

I know I've shown up on race weekends, gone out for qualifying and set a damn fine lap, the kind of lap where other folks are saying, "you're gonna be pole with that lap" only to discover that my competitor in a damn near identical car went 1.5 seconds faster and I'm spending the rest of the day scratching my head, watching video and researching data thinking, "Where the hell can I find another 1.5 seconds!?"

So being in that position I gotta ask, where are you going to find 19 more seconds? Theoretically, what radical changes are needed to the car if a 1:40 were to be your target?
