| Pit assignments: | View PDF | 
| Wing configuration: | Modified road/street | 
| Boost level: | 140 kPa | 
| Tires available per entry: | The tire specification for this weekend is the same as the Firestone short-oval spec provided for the 2012 Milwaukee race. It was developed last year to provide a higher-grip tread compound to better accommodate the needs of the then-new Dallara DW12 chassis.· Each entry receives eight sets (32 total tires) for the race weekend. Rookie drivers and those outside the top 10 in points receive a ninth set of tires for use only in the opening practice session. A total of 1,012 tires are available. · Tire stagger: A single stagger of approximately 0.45 of an inch is available for all teams. Stagger, created by molding the right rear tire with a larger diameter than the left rear, helps racecars turn more naturally and smoothly on oval tracks. |
