Most teams have indicated yes as they get a big push from the high winds coming out turn two and going into turn three.
3:09
Comment From Eric 

Is the high winds in Indiana affecting the handling/downforce for some of the drivers today?
3:08
Engine Primarily. The CRA Super Series utilizes more liberal engine rules whereas the JEGS/CRA/GM cars are restricted to Crate Motors only.
3:07
Comment From Eric 

What’s the difference between a JEGS series car and a CRA series car? Rules, engine, or just the logo on the top of the windshield; )
