Whats up guys, had a fun day at buttonwillow raceway monday. It was pouring rain the entire time and was a very slick, wet, puddle-filled track. This was my first wet track day, and second track day EVER. I was sketched out my first few sessions but by the end of the day was having a blast and learned a lot about control.

Here's a few laps toward the end of the day (just having fun, not going for time)

I was supposed to be out there with you in my 00R on Monday. But, with the horrible rain conditions... and the run off areas being clay filled mud bogs.... I opted to pass on the event (as did everyone else in my group). Glad you had a good time. Maybe we will see each other at another Speed Ventures outing when it's a BIT more dry! :rolling:

BTW GREAT looking Vette!

If I had your car the last thing I'd be doing is racing on a wet track. LOL!

Love track days in the rain.

Last one I did I added a straight between turns 6 and 7 on our track that wasn't there before.

Wasn't perfectly straight considering I went around about 6 times. lol
