Unfortunately had to call it early because of Day 2 Rain. Had the track tires on the car and they have zero wet traction. Day 1 was good, except for NCM decided to institute a 120 MPH top speed policy for the Novice Group. I was able to get a few good laps in before the instructor enforced the policy. Best time 2.28.01, with a top speed of 145. Not by any means race car driver speeds, but I was happy with it.

That's some pretty good running considering, too bad about the WX.

Sounds like fun.

Where was it?

Better yet, how about opening a thread in Off Topic and tell us all about the experience?
