This is the configuration I'll be running at Buttonwillow. I've run this track config probably 10 times before (years ago) which is why I chose it as my first foray into driving the Z on a road course. Riverside is definitely a long, sweeping right hander. The sweeper (turn 10) will probably be a concern too for this problem. Looks like I'll be bringing a couple 5 gallon jugs of fuel just to make sure I don't end up ruining my day with this weird issue.
