Spoiler Alert: Day 1 of testing at Charlotte (Updated)

Sorry I haven’t been around in while but some things have come up that I had to deal with ASAP and I should be done with it sometime tonight (fingers crossed).

Anyway, I’ve got some pictures from today’s test at Charlotte Motor Speedway for you to look at. Enjoy.

Updated: Top 10 speeds for the two test sessions are after the pictures - Montoya’s looking stout!
