Secondly the season isn't over yet. There's still 3 more races left (not including the un-aired Watkins Glen race that the Z would have won if it hadn't been taken out by an idiot ST driver), so a podium/1st is still possible this season.
I'm really looking forward to Indy. I know the team is really fired up to finish 1st and are really confident that they can pull it off. I stopped by their shop last weekend to see how things were going with the rebuild (and take photos) and they are working 7 days a week to get the car back up. I will be pretty shocked if they don't podium in Indy.
