The most interesting rule change is the elimination of the catch-can man. He was also the guy that made most wedge and track bar adjustments. Now the right rear tire carrier will probably pick up that job. But somebody moving around like the tire crew might have problems handling the weight jacker tool too. The right rear of the car is the most dangerous place in pit lane.
It might not improve things as much as they think.

I personally hate that part of the changes. I think it isn’t necessary and could cause many more problems than it fixes.
You’re right about the rear carrier, although they are pretty used to changing rear track bar and/or wedge, but catch can guy also helped with that.
Probably why HMS rented CMS for a day to practice pit stops.

The reason I asked is there was one advertised down here that mentioned limited production, with supposedly one in the area.
We’re supposed to be in the low 70s tomorrow, which is much better than the last several days.

I’ve sent the St. Bernard w/your favorite vintage. Be careful of the dog slobber on the cork.
Speaking of corks they be a popping in Green Bay tonight.
No corks for me on the 17th..gonna miss the duels. Wife needs to be in the valley for meetings and we will be on the road.

I’ll be at work, as usual. It’s really irritating that they have those during the week.

or a ditch-witch and realllly long cable extension.
I don’t comprehend the start time of the duels; maybe they don’t want folks to see the SNAFU w/the new gas cans.

Well you’re closest!
They always run during the day. Way back when, they would re-run at 5:00 and then again about 8 or 9:00.
Now we just get highlights or maybe a replay at 2 in the morning.

I’m close enough to the switch for DSL and I told my son he should pay for it so I can monitor the security cameras but he didn’t like that because he thought I wanted to spy on him However... I have not ruled out 2 miles of ethernet cable...
