The current Indycar champion, Josef Newgarden, did some demo laps on the Charlotte Roval yesterday after the Cup series qualified. There had been no testing prior on the track so Firestone did not have a tire ready for the specifics of that track.
It's cool listening to the NASCAR guys talk about the car. The best part was when they told Clint Bowyer the lap time, he said "Thank God they did that after everybody left." Newgarden's fifth lap on the course was 11 seconds faster than William Byron's pole speed.
