Night time had braking markers muddled, then with continued rain, braking marks changed every time out. Barbagello is pretty grippy when wet if you go outside the racing line. not the shortest route around, but more traction.as a note. In the dry, with 40rwkw les, I was getting 120kph thru the esses. In the wet, with more grunt I couln't get more than 100kph thru them. Corner speed was down alot, as was the point you could power out. Previously I was gassing it mid apex, on boost and slingshot out the corner. Last night I had to coast thru the corners, then gas it when I was thru and straight and feed the throttle on. Good for the senses to get it out in the wet though, something different.I'm on the lookout for a dry session in the day. If anyone signs up for one and I still have the barge after seeing the EVO9 out last night, give me a holler.. From memory I finished 18 out of 35. Majority of the field were either AWD or R-Spec equipped. I think I finished in front of one R33 GTR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He cooked his brakes during the period the instructors were in the car, which weren't even considered 'hot' laps. I think he left after the 2nd sprint session Throw in a couple of corners and it really sorts out the good cars from the not so good ones. Imagine if it was dry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
