It was a tortured weekend. Report and video coming soon. Day job catchup conflicts with race reporting for a few days.

Here's a teaser. These were the car's corner weights when I scaled after Saturday's race. How is this possible?

Broken motor mounts? Or a really big ground hog snuck into your wheel well when you weren’t looking?

They made you put all the winner's penalty balast on as wheel weights? And only on the front-right wheel? That's odd...

Can't wait for the full report and the answer to this mystery.

Bent frame? Two fat trophy girls sitting on two corners of the car?
