I decided to leave the spare/sub/tools in the back to help keep more weight over the rear wheels and aide in traction in the wet conditions on track. So sorry, I didn't corner scale the car with the spare/sub/tools removed.
I also didn't change the brake pads since I was worried that because of the conditions and the lower speeds of driving in the wet, I wouldn't be able to get the track pads up to their operating temperature. So I have no feedback on the Hawk HP Plus pads
.
I also failed on the photos/video. We were the first group out on track in the morning and the track was really wet. I didn't set up the video camera because I knew I was going to be going out and going super so I can see where the puddles were on course and check out the conditions. After finding the trouble areas of the flooded track my intent was to start filming in the second session. Well the weather got worse and wasn't letting up so they canceled the event and sent everyone home before I got a chance to go out on track again.
So in closing, it was a day full of fail. I have no feedback on the car, no feedback on the brake pads, no video, and nothing cool to share.
I was
by mother nature. Its a slim chance, but I will do my best to make it out to Streets of Willow for another (hopefully dry) track day on the 13th. Sorry guys.
