Penske built a car that exploited the soft rulebook to the limit. Even FPR didn't see the need to exploit it even further by placing weight in the mufflers. The pulling down of the front nose for aero only, side skirts and a rear wing setup that had never been seen before. Angled bottom wing plate with a turnup as apposed to flat used in the other two cars. Supercar have egg on their face as that mustang should never been signed off. It was a rocket ship, after seeing the first photo's I said no way you must be kidding they can't run that. That was without even knowing the COG numbers.
Changes for next year? I want to see the aero cut right back on all the cars. let's get back to the fastest driver in the best teams running at the front and with more passing. And not drivers looking way better than the are just by the car they drive.
PS good to see FPR pulling the DJR car back in too, time they stepped up.
Forda maybe let one of your mates kick me before you jump in, thanks Champ
