How different is the driving style of the P-car to the other cars you've raced?

The style on how you drive the car isn't really that much different than any other car, everything is much more sped up because of the sequential box. A lot of people say you have to be careful about all the weight in the back, yes you do have more of a pendulum effect with the engine in the back. However you can do MUCH more than a normal car can, much more trail braking since there is so much weight to hold the back end of the car down, much better power-down, I think there is much more positive than negative, just have to figure out how she likes it

Awesomeness. How often do you have to rebuild the 3.8?

Currently it has the 3.6 engine in it, this engine is going on 25-30 hours or so now. Usually a rebuild is between 40-60 hours, can be much earlier depending on how tight you want the motor. After the 24, the engine/trans will need to be rebuilt no matter what, and they are brand new when you go to that race. You guys don't want to know how much it is to rebuild an engine and trans in this car...

I'll try to get some video from Miami up in the next day or two.
