Mine is resourceful.
She makes chairs out of cardboard while I try to decipher centerlocks for the first time and Paul plays with his PIWIS.
See you all at the track.

Hey guys, this is Matt (new owner of Serge's beloved 4 Liter). Looking forward to meeting everyone out at the track this weekend. This will be my first time running Sonoma as well and I'll be in the mixed group.

Argh...I hadn't even looked at the weather yet but just did Well, keep your fingers crossed boys and hope the old weather man is wrong yet again. Apparently a 60% chance of rain as of now. Hopefully that will diminish over the coming days.

guys, be super careful at SP this Saturday. Track surface will be very cold and wet if it rains. Very little run off if you lose control and seen one too many crash there. Even low speed spin can end up with massive damage since most walls do not have tire barrier to slow you down

I sure hope we get a break in the weather as well. Not sure how comfortable I am taking the baby out in the wet with other folks on the track. Accuweather is saying mostly cloudy with spotty showers as of now.

Just go slower at sp if it rains. I've driven in full rain at sp with kuhmo v710's. Just do your own abs brake mode by tapping brake repeatedly and early since stock abs is **** in the rain in track and wide turns with no steering angles. Be smooth on every input no goosing the throttle or major stabs of brakes. Rain didn't stop me from doing a few sessions.
Sure beats gettin parked like the ferrari's/Lamborghini crowd that was there. Learning car control is pretty fun. Mike
