MIXED MILNER
Changing conditions have led to modified run plans for some teams, including Corvette Racing. From 70 degrees and sunny on Friday to rain and clouds this morning to ambient temperatures in the 40s for the afternoon, Tommy Milner says the factory GT Le Mans program can always find something useful to accomplish, even when lap times are far from optimal.
"We've just been running to see what the car feels like," Milner said. "We did a lot of driver change practice when the track wasn't very good, and in the last session, we ran on Michelin's new wet tire to get some information—pressures, cambers, and all that—and then when the conditions were mixed, we switched to race running. It was still a little bit wet at the Bus Stop, so we were sliding a bit there, but it was dry mostly. We're hoping it's just cold tomorrow so at least it's consistent all day."

OLLY'S ODD COMPLAINT
Milner also mentioned his fellow IMSA GTLM champion and teammate Oliver Gavin expressed one of the stranger complaints heard from a race car driver.
"We feel good where the car is setup-wise and the changes over the winter have been good for the C7.R," Milner continued. "Oliver was complaining the car is too comfortable to drive! It's a good thing to hear about the car because it's the state it will run in the race, but it was a funny comment to hear. He said, 'the car is always hard to drive here...now it's too comfortable...'"
The defending Rolex 24 winners might have to stray from that comfort zone if more speed is required once the series returns for the race later this month.
"We can make it less comfortable to drive and it might end up being faster, so we can do that if necessary and then maybe Olly will be happier, but it will take seeing what everyone else is doing to know if that's the right direction to take," Milner added.
