It didn't went well but comparing the announced changes to my data on the old car I can share that the new car is more neutral to drive, still a thing or two that can be improved but I'm almost sure the team behind it will take care of it.
I think Phend had it a week or two before and had limited practice and one race on it, JR got the car same day he arrived at Nats.
