You're a star, Bob. Wink

Bob that was really nice how you kept the car straight and you didn't lose a position. Ever since last Nov I really have come to like driving my car in the rain. It poured yesterday here in D.C. and there I was clicking along on 270 coming home from work last night with the biggest shiteatenest grin.

Bummer, I need IE to view this. Guess I'll have to wait until I get connected with my PC.

However, I can guess what this is about. I remember being on the track with Bob @ our November event at Summit last year. It was pouring. I had my streets on and I was working for all I was worth to keep the car under control. I was NOT going to be a casualty of the conditions after I read everyone else the riot act about staying in control.... I see Bob in the mirror and he passes me like I'm standing still, rooster tail bellowing from those hoosier rains Smile

But, you need more than good tires to drive well in awful conditions. You need execllent driving skills too. Bob has the whole package.

SmileThat did the trick for cleaning up the skiped frames.  Great save at T-1.  You have a smart Corgi,  that herding stuff is for boarder collies.

Agreed.  I had lots of fun racing with Bob.  Especially in the dry the day before. 

300+MB Sat Race.  I started from the back and took me a while to finally get Bob.  If his car was actually prepped to GTS3, I would have certainly had more trouble. 

I remember that Summit Point event too.  I was on the same tires as this past event Smile  I remember how fast Bob passed me in the rain that time too!  Confusedhock:
