Thanks Jess. Yours and Maureens help was very much appreciated. Next time we need to get Mother Nature on board as well!
Believe it or not we got one more session in before the lighting came around again. Then, as I was departing, the sun came out. But by then the track workers had all gone home. Oh well, the weather is at least one of those things we cannot control. The overall experience was a blast.
Note this was my first time doing laps on a fully wet track under a steady downpour. The Kumho V700's worked great in those conditions. Very predictable and good adhesion as long as you avoid the hydroplaning puddles.
