...are the forcast for my up-comming weekend at VIR.
meh...
Some people don't like to drive in the rain. I love it. You can learn more about car control, fine tuning your feel for weight distribution, and your feel for grip in just one track session in the rain than you can in half a year's dry track driving. That was the case with me last March at VIR.
So I can't wait to do it again. I've learned to embrace driving in the rain, and hopefully that will give me a competetive edge when I finally start racing in the Spec E30 class.
In preparation for this weekend's event, I have replaced all of my soft metal 
wheel studs with hardened bullnosed racing studs, and new nuts of course. I'll be leaving my street tires on since the forcast is calling for thunderstorms, but will take the RA's with me just in case mother nature decides to play nice!I'm hoping that my driving performance this weekend will get me a check ride in Group 3, as I'm really looking forward to more passing opportunities on track. Not only to pass, but to be passed anywhere on track. Group 3 requires extreme situational awareness, and an almost automatic ability to drive the car at 10/10ths.
