I was wondering if anyone had a Can Sealer so I can put the top back on this can of WHOOP AZZ that got opened on Sat?
For those who were there and stayed to race. I hope that you are all learning that driving in the rain can be the best fun of any racing you will do. For those that left early, You can not learn if you do not try.
Thanks to all who came out and enjoyed the event and the company.
Hope to see you all in the new year!
Thanks for all the support and interest,
Carver
Ok T, Here is where you come in and tell everyone about the What Ifs and Glad the PCA DE gods were not on site for us to follow around.

All kidding aside, you and Chris W. put on one heck of a good “driving in the rain” clinic.

^^ No doubt. It was a learning experience to watch them work the traffic.

All kidding aside, you and Chris W. put on one heck of a good “driving in the rain” clinic. No doubt about that. I have to agree with Carver that racing in the rain is absolutely the most fun I have ever had racing. I wish I would have had the tires and balls necessary to be in the mix last Saturday. |

Man, you cats are hurting so much my approval that I might start selling it. Busy as he11....and to top it off, my helper was cuffed and hauled off by the po-po right from the job, the arrested and fired two-fer...so I'm doing the work of two peeps right now at work, reassembling the front end of a ti from a hatchback full of parts that I didn't take apart and building my race engine at the same time. Specifically at Carver....only session that I know for sure it was wet and your car was actually running at the same time was the time you asked me to "come play" in practice once when I was driving Eon's car on a shake down before he raced out of town, I was .500 off you, on slicks, and cautious about binning Eon's car, www.mylaps.com/results/showrun.jsp?id=1796078Rain...., I can take it or leave it...had a few good times. If you are prepared for it, setup and tire-wise, it's better than not...., heck, Walt caught everybody with their pants down a year ago with sticker Ra1s and ran off in the distance.....until it stopped pouring. Excluding the driver from the equation...., if you are a certain percentage ahead of your competition in the dry, and you multiply that percentage in the wet....you better look into your dry suspension settings...chances are, you have too soft springs and/or too much body lean. Flash time between coats on my bumper cover is about up but, I have time to leave y'all with one of my favorite motorsports quotes of all time pertaining to dry vs. wet racing....from Michael Schumacher when asked by a reporter about the difference between the two - paraphrasing, "In the dry, when you are at the limit, the tires talk to you." "In the wet, when you are at the limit, they whisper.." Check y'all track freaks later, T |
