Racecars testing at Las Vegas are not equipped with timing transponders, however it’s clear to many which cars are the quickest. Jimmie Johnson, Kasey Kahne, Mark Martin, Jeremy Mayfield, Jeff Gordon and Kurt Busch are the top cars according to garage insiders. During Tuesday’s lunch break Kahne said, “Las Vegas is a good track to test at because it changes and you need to figure out what your car does. We’re way different than the 19 (Mayfield) and the 48 (Johnson) is probably the dominate car here that I’ve seen so far…maybe the 19 is up there…but…the 48 is defiantly better that we are. My car feels good…I tested this package at Atlanta and it was a really loose package but here it feels real good…we’ll see how it feels at California the next two days.”(PRN’s Garage Pass Radio Show)(2-2-2005)
