Extra socks.

 

And keep your feet and pedal cluster dry in the car. Be VERY careful not to get the bottom of your shoes wet, as they can slip off of the pedals.

Don't forget your New England driving shoes.......

 

Ugh. Nothing looks quite so...effeminate....on a guy.

 

[QUOTE=Flying Finn;6324805]Please hope again, in rain, you'll learn much more.


I couldn't agree more with Jack.

oh, i definitely dont have a problem driving in the rain. i've been on the track in the rain a few times and have had a blast. i agree that you learn great car control and it makes you be smooth on the track. however, the forecast shows 90% chance of thunderstorms which in that case i'll most likely be sitting in the truck watching a movie instead of doing any kind of driving. here are a few pics of me in the rain at Barber








getting a point by in the rain

 

We don't get a lot of rain practice here in Texas, especially in the midst of a once-every-50-years drought. But when we do, it is among the most valuable of lessons.

 

Then I guess you guys don't get much rain then. These are our wet-weather driving shoes... aptly named the "Enduros".

 

Um....OK....

 

Figured these would be more your style, being in Texas and all. Y'all.

 

Since this is your first event, the right side (instructors') window will also have to be down and you'll only get wet sitting on the grid. Enjoy the event....you'll have so much adrenaline flowing you won't notice any rain in your car.

 

Rain driving is lots of fun, just stay away from painted surfaces, and you want to avoid the hump in the kink. Also be careful exiting turn 3, I had a tank slapper there and if you go off, you could end up in the creek. Other than that, it's pretty safe.

 

Under steer or over steer?

 

I have my guesses...
