Great event! Here are a couple of pics from Saturday's snow driving...

Didn't get a chance to meet all of you folks but hopefully at future DEs.

Cheers.

Bobby
I came over several times to meet you, but all I found was your car with muddy tires. Can't imagine how that happened.
Were you using the stock Cup tires during the snow showers?

Sorry I missed meeting you. Hopefully we'll meet at another event. Yes I was driving on the stock N rated MPSCs the car came with. Regarding the "muddy" tires...let's just say they were evidence of driver error at T-3.

I'll be there with Potomac in April and NNJR in May and again with Metro later on. I didn't realized that the MPSC's were M+S rated......
If mud came from T-3, I'm assuming you missed "turn in"? Possibly cold tires?

Bobby appeared to want a closer look at the tire wall....a REALLY close look!

Right after Bobby went of another car went of in almost the same spot. Maybe as the track was drying a few wet spots caught them by surprise or there was some fluid there. Two incidents on the last day in the same spot. Bobby got lucky. The other guy wasn't so lucky. He hit pretty good. Damn shame on the last day. Beautiful car.

I'm not much of a believer in driving in the rain or on wet tracks. Bobby was luckier than he'll ever know considering how beautiful and expensive his car is. We all hate to hear about serious track incidents.

If Bobby were available, I'm sure he would tell you it was there after his first run of the first day., which could have been cold tires as it was the first run of the event Friday morning. Did he have another off on day two....time to come clean here Bobby, so we can "help" you.
