    Agreed, was good to explore grips levels. I was one of the slowest/most cautious on the day and was surprised at the lateral grip levels. And when I pulled in to fix up the wiper, most cars were carrying really good pace down the straight and through the kink.

    I won't make this one Clay, doing timeattack on saturday 11th.

    No worries Sean.
    Keen to see how you go a a proper event.

    I agree with the comments about the wet event.
    Everyone was more cautious around the corners but it was enjoyable and everyone played it safe.
    I actually enjoy the wet weather ones more as it makes the pack a bit more even.

    A great opportunity to learn how the car handles the wet with limited risks.
