Mike,

While this can be done, and I'm sure will be done during the course of the Championship, it really limits teams to what they can do. My team for instance is planning on re-routing our drive chains at the next event, in addition to doing some modifications to our kicker. We're planning on using most of Thursday for this. We probably wouldn't do this at the Championship, for fear of missing the first few qualification matches, and maybe even missing getting inspected on time and not being rewarded seeding points even if we send a team representative.
