Track prep was good   tracked stayed smooth all nite.....it got hard black and slick.  The problem was the combination of the clay  tire choice and driving style.  Mahaney and Sheps tires were good, Gulars had about a lap left on them.  Sheppard was off the gas right at the start finish line,  just rolled in the turns.  The NY tracks are for most part very abrasive dry hard and slick so the 9s and 44 have a distinct advantage and usually figure it better. The 44 blew his RR too though
