Could you clear this point up?...

When following the leads which begin in the latest CEO update, it takes us to the following description of the race.

"I radioed in the differential temp reading on each pass down the straightaway, and after about six laps the crew pulled me in, sending me straight to the trailer so the boiling differential fluid could be changed for fresh fluid. It was too late to save the race, but not too late to save the differential from a hideous and expensive meltdown. The job was done in 15 minutes, but the car was clearly ailing.

At this point, Biscevic took my place to try to squeeze in a few laps in his own race car and nurse it over the finish line. After a few more lengthy pit stops and fluid checks, the 350Z finally took the checkered flag running 34th, last among the living but ahead of seven cars that had crashed or otherwise expired.

At Laguna Seca, simply surviving was as much victory as we dared hope for. Thanks, Mr. Shepard.

The next race for the Car and Diver/NoHotWire 350Z will likely be July 19–22 at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama."

I'm confused, are they speaking of the original differential, or the Iso-torque differential?

It seems to me that both descriptions (the CEO update and this article) are speaking about the same actual race.
