ACS does only have one track... yes. However, they (speed ventures) doesn't run autocross on the "track". I believe they run it out in the parking lot on a makeshift track. That's all I was saying.

Agreed. Screw that. I wouldn't have any problem running the track in the rain EXCEPT for coming off that front straight at 140+ going into that long banked turn. I mean how much do you gamble that?

Plus, I'm going in order to try to beat my standing time. Obviously in the rain I would have to dial it back and I really don't have any interest is doing that. I guess if worse comes to worse, I drive in the wet but I really don't want to. If I were paid to actually "race", then sure I would chalk that up to "practice" but I'm not and I'm happy to be a "fair weather" weekend warrior.
