Maybe a baseline...but, they sure spend a lot of time going over their tuneup on their laptop at the hotel.I would venture to say that the most important info the crew chiefs need to know are in their head anyway, so it's probably a relatively moot point other than record keeping.
This may be a dumb question, but JFR has their own cylinder head, blower, clutch programs and their own chassis program. DSR has their own cylinder head, blower, clutch and chassis programs too. How transferrable is that data? Don't get me wrong, Jimmy Prock is a very smart dude and will have it figured out in very short order, but I am wondering if the notebook is really that valuable in this instance.
