Yep it was a great time and I want to do it again!

With regards to the VDC -- I really would encourage any first timer with no track experience to leave it on the first weekend out, especially if wet. I know it's "cheating", but let's face it, I have to drive this thing 3+ hrs home and then to work the next morning. I can't load it's crumpled self into my enclosed trailer and pull it back!

Now, I only got to run 3 dry sessions before it rained the rest of the weekend. The first and second session I never even went hard enough to get the thing to turn on. The third dry session it came on during most corner exits but to be honest with you I was focusing on very smooth throttle input and even though I saw the light I never felt any difference in power. If the rest of the weekend would have stayed dry I think I would have noticed it holding things back and then turned it off. But in the wet, it kept me on track a few times! Next time out though, no VDC, gotta learn proper car control!

I guess I will get some Carbotechs...that really seems to be the popular choice. Nobody runs the EBC pads or Hawk?
