Gordan Murry designed, made and tested a pressure-fed refuelling system which delivered 100 litres into the car within 3 seconds. To improve pit-stop procedures, Gordon hired a film crew to film the team practising pit stops, and then played back the film, stopping it to identify difficulties and errors, and devising ways to improve the procedures. Such improvements included details such as redesigning the wheel-nut gun to improve its engagement with the nut. The new systems, the improvements, and the training of the pit team got the actual stopped-time down to under the target of 10 seconds. One 'big-killer' remained: 'When you put new tyres on they were cold, and it always took two laps to get back up to speed, and the time you lost in those two laps killed the whole thing. So then I thought, well I know the tyres start working at 70°C . . . so we designed an oven, a wooden oven with a gas-fired heater, and we heated the tyres up - and 10 seconds before the car was coming in we opened the oven door, whipped the tyres out, put them on, and the guy was instantly quick. Now every Grand Prix team has tyre heating; that's where it started.'
