I DVR'd it. Is this a new one or does it cover the one that already happened.
BTW, Bryan was awesome at Mid-Ohio this weekend.

Were the Z's they used manual? I could have sworn they looked like automatic's. I just think it would taken some getting use to if they were using MT's...not to mention right hand drive cars.

Good question. Not sure actually, I'll ask Nick Fontana the next time I see him. They did have a little bit of notice before being sent off, and they even knew there would be some physical activity besides driving so they were able to train for a couple of months.

Even though we already knew the results months ago it is still fun to watch.
