| I have to say that I made no conscious effort to conserve fuel and reached 55 laps with plenty of fuel to make it to the pits. |

It tells the whole story. You can also see every lap time of every driver too. The MRP was averaging in the 1:07's where the DB team and other front qualifyers were averaging mid 1:06's. What did you guys do to that rotax in qualifying to go so fast?  |
The barometer reading changed twenty degrees from saturday during qualifying to race time sunday. If you've ever run a rotax thats a huge change and something we neglected to factor into our setup for the race so we lost alot of top speed for the first half of the race and as the air changed so did our times. Rotax is all about the jetting, which we got right for qualifying but not in the race.. |

It must be very sensitive. We didn't change a thing from saturday to sunday. We had to switch motors but ran the same carb the same settings. |
